• UV-DTFA print sheets and UV-DTFB transfer film target VersaOBJECT MO/CO-i and VersaSTUDIO BD printers, sold via dealers and online. • Leading wide-format digital imaging provider Roland DGA has announced the launch of a new UV Direct-to-Film (DTF) system, featuring enhanced media that significantly improves ease of use, productivity, and versatility compared to previous UV DTF products. • Roland DGA’s new UV DTF system consists of UV-DTFA Print Sheets and UV-DTFB Transfer Film designed to work with Roland DG VersaOBJECT MO Series benchtop, VersaOBJECT CO-i Series large-format, and VersaSTUDIO BD Series desktop UV flatbed printers. • When used together, the UV-DTFA and UV-DTFB media provide greater dimensional stability and eliminate adhesive residue deposits, while allowing improved adhesion that’s up to two times better than competitive systems. • In addition, the UV-DTFB film features new layered technology that increases workflow efficiency, resulting in a much improved DTF transfer process. • The new UV DTF transfer system enhances the bold color vibrancy, durability, and adhesion of Roland DG’s specially formulated V-BOND inks (compatible with VersaOBJECT flatbed printers) by enabling high-impact graphics to be printed onto transfer media and then applied directly to a wide range of objects.

Article Summaries:

  • Roland DGA has introduced a new UV Direct‑to‑Film (DTF) system that pairs UV‑DTFA print sheets with UV‑DTFB transfer film. Designed for its VersaOBJECT MO/CO‑i and VersaSTUDIO BD printers, the media set offers improved dimensional stability, higher adhesion (up to twice that of competitors), and reduced adhesive residue. The system enhances color vibrancy and durability of V‑BOND inks, allowing high‑impact graphics to be printed on transfer media and then applied to a wide range of objects, including irregularly shaped items. The process requires minimal steps and produces long‑lasting, scratch‑resistant results, expanding creative and production possibilities for print providers and end users.
