The Ultra 300Ai UV Coater provides a solution that enhances the value and vibrancy of printed pieces at higher speeds and comes standard with a bridge unit — enabling it to receive output directly from a digital press!
Heavy duty yet simple to use, the Ultra 300Ai applies a high quality gloss, satin or matte finish to a wide range of offset and digitally-printed applications, adding richness to its colors while protecting them from scratches and scuffs. The Ultra 300Ai features innovative technology for coating both sides of the sheet with a smear-free finish. Print providers can offer double the value by coating both sides of the application such as direct mailers, brochures, business cards, books covers and more.
With the bridge unit, printed sheets are delivered directly into the UV coater, increasing overall productivity. The adjustable bridge unit accommodates the heights of most digital presses. With a coating speed of up to 148 feet (45 meters) per minute, the Ultra 300Ai can accommodate the output speed from most digital presses and process a variety of paper sizes, from 8.5" x 11" to 20" x 28", up to 350gsm. For near-line feeding, the Ultra 300A model is also available with the high capacity SF-300 Suction Feeder.
High in automation and loaded with features, the Ultra 300Ai/Ultra 300A provides the ideal UV coating solution for any digital print environment!
The Ultra 300Ai is fully compatible and connectable in-line with HP Indigo 7x00 Digital Presses, providing a seamless and automated printing and UV coating solution. The electronic interface provides bi-directional communication that alerts both the press and the UV coater to stop in the event there is a paper jam on either end.
With its state-of-the-art intelligent control system, minimal operator experience is required as the Ultra 300Ai/300A can be programmed quickly and easily. With the touch of a button, the entire machine is turned on in a programmed sequence. Coating speed, pump speed, cleaning and IR functions are all set from the intelligent control panel. The coating volume and roller gap can be adjusted in 0.1 mm increments using the two index dials. Additional features include:
The Ultra 300Ai/300A delivers vibrant, UV coated applications in an instant. Coating is evenly distributed before passing under the UV lamp – providing a superior glossy finish. The self-centered and self-tensioning conveyor ensures all sheets are delivered consistently flat and straight throughout the process. With the added power of the UV lamp, the gloss coating will cure faster, leaving a consistent finish with a superior gloss meter reading.
Other features include:
The Ultra 300Ai/300A is both CE and UL certified and provides the utmost safety for operators at all times. Safety sensors fitted near the delivery tray shut the machine down when a paper jam occurs. As the sheets are cured by the UV lamp and delivered into the exit tray, the UV lamp’s ventilation draws out heat from the main chamber, providing a safe operating temperature.
