Spot Productions invest in second Anapurna LED hybrid printer

Less than twelve months ago Queensland based Spot Productions invested in an Anapurna H2500i and Agfa Acorta cutting table. Due to their ever-increasing workload, the need for another platform was evident and the latest Agfa H1650 was the obvious choice.

 “I have seen our new Wide Format Division grow at an amazing rate due to the continued support of our loyal client base, so it was decided that more capacity was needed. Once this decision had been made, we started our investigations to find a new platform that would compliment our existing range, but more importantly assist with our growth,” said Simon Carmody Managing Director, Spot Productions.

“After a number of weeks researching possible solutions, the Spot management team and I decided to move forward with Agfa again. The quality from our first Anapurna LED platform was of such a high standard, we needed something that could match the output and decided to purchase the latest H1650 six colour LED hybrid printer.”

The latest edition to the Agfa family of printers, the Anapurna H1650i LED device has a high-speed 6 colour hybrid inkjet system with a printing width from 1.65 to 3.2 for indoor and outdoor applications. It achieves speeds of up to 63m2 per hour and is able to deliver photorealistic images. With the ability to switch swiftly from board to roll and to utilise the latest LED curing technology, the operator is able to print on coreflute, composite panel, acrylics, foam PVC, banners, paper, SAV and heat sensitive stock.

Simon says the decision to purchase the Anapurna H1650i LED was also based on the need to keep the high level of support that Agfa has abundantly provided.

“Having experienced sales and engineering staff on call to react to our needs, makes a massive difference, especially as a number of potential suppliers continue to shed heads,” he said.

“Wide Format started out as a hobby shop for us to add value to our existing client base. Now it is a very important productive part of our business as it adds tremendous value, especially on cross media campaigns, utilising offset, cut sheet, digital and sign & display items,” he added.

Michael Culver, Inkjet Manager Oceania said: “It is a pleasure working with Simon and his team. Being asked to supply another machine was a great success story for all involved. When you gain multiple orders you must be doing something right. Spot is a loyal and dynamic customer and we are excited about the company’s continued expansion”.
