Extending the realm of your printing from flat substrates to the third dimension. Roland’s UV-LED inkjet printer, the LEF-12, allows you to print on 3D objects with a height of up to 100 mm (3.94”). Taking full advantage of our printing knowhow, the LEF-12 will enable you to create added-value personalisation and originality to a vast range of popular consumer items.
As an Authorised Dealer, printMAX is committed to delivering Roland printers with high quality after-sales support and service to ensure clients are able to get the best return on investment for their business.
Direct printing on 3D objects
The LEF-12 is capable of printing anything on both flat and uneven surfaces for 3D objects up to 100 mm (3.94” ) thick. Because the integrated UV-LED lamp instantly cure ink during printing, it can print directly onto materials such as PET, ABS, PVC, polycarbonate, PS and other plastics, as well as papers and card stocks. The flatbed construction of the LEF-12 automatically adjusts the distance between the print-head and the surface of the material for optimum printing results.
Clear ink enhances the print quality and appearance
The inclusion of Roland’s clear varnish enables users to produce unusual and creative textures on all materials. Among the advantages offered by the LEF-12 are high-grade gloss and matte finishes as well as 3D “impasto” effects that can be created by stacking many layers of clear ink. The LEF-12 offers 72 ready-to-use texture patterns, all of which are easy to incorporate into a design. With just one click you can create high-value exquisite, appealing and unique effects for your customers.
High-density opaque white ink
The LEF-12 is compatible with Eco-UV high-density white ink in addition to full four-colour CMYK inks and clear varnish. The versatility of white ink delivers innovative text, logos and images onto coloured backgrounds. Use white ink as a base coat to add vivid colour printing on transparent PET base materials, or as a primer on darker materials. Being an inkjet printer, the LEF-12 dispenses with the time-consuming conventional plate-making process. This means it can deliver small batch jobs or just one item without a lengthy set-up process.
Environmentally and user friendly operation
Equipped with long-life LED
UV-curing lamp, the LEF-12
requires no warm-up time,
making it efficient to use and
cool to touch. This LED curing
technology means it can be
used in conjunction with delicate materials which, traditionally, have
been difficult to dry efficiently. The LEF-12 includes a safety hood to
protect the operator from UV light during operation and a screen to
prevent dust falling on the surface of materials whilst printing.
Highly intuitive RIP and production software
The LEF-12 includes the highly intuitive Roland VersaWorks® RIP software which works with files created using industry-standard design software packages such as Adobe® Illustrator® and CorelDRAW®. The LEF-12 supports two print modes. Standard mode is ideal for printing fine detail. Distance mode is more suitable to print on objects where the surface is not level. Users can switch between the two modes with ease. Endless personalisation options are available with the LEF-12. Simply load a CSV file or standard data file for continuously printed serial numbers or product names.
