Sawgrass officially launched today its new Virtuoso 25-inch HD Product Decorating System featuring the Sawgrass VJ 628 Printer. This newest addition to the company’s Virtuoso HD Product Decorating System line is the only fully integrated sublimation system of its size and has been created specifically for larger format and high-volume production.
“Sawgrass developed the Virtuoso 25-inch HD Product Decorating System in direct response to dealer and end-user requests for an alternative to the current 24-inch aftermarket solutions,” said Sawgrass President Darcy Mauro. “We worked with Mutoh to develop this all-new system, which offers a wider print area and brings the power of our desktop Virtuoso HD Product Decorating Systems to its next evolution.”
The Virtuoso 25-inch HD Product Decorating System is the first new addition to Virtuoso line, enabling the company to offer a larger format sublimation solution for additional markets. Featuring Virtuoso’s full suite of included products, this system is ideal for interior signage, fine art and photographic reproduction or high volume production of personalized gifts and promotional products.
Sawgrass VJ 628 Printer
The Sawgrass VJ 628 25-inch printer delivers prints up to 1440 x 1440 dpi – the highest resolution possible – and features Mutoh’s patent-pending i2 Intelligent Interweaving printing technology, which virtually eliminates horizontal and vertical banding. With a maximum print area of 24.4 inches on 24.8-inch media, the VJ 628 is the only printer of its size that enables a full-bleed print on 24-inch products. This, combined with an industrial-grade printhead built to last even in the most-demanding production environments, makes the VJ 628 a unique combination of extreme versatility and value.
SubliJet-HD Ink
Sawgrass’ SubliJet-HD high-yield gel formula inks come in convenient, reliable single-use closed cartridges for the VJ 628’s eight-color and dual CMYK capabilities. These high-density inks have been designed to work specifically with the VJ 628 to achieve resolution up to 1440 dpi and an expanded gamut up to 548,000 colors. Count on SubliJet-HD for rich blacks, neutral grays and dazzling, photo-quality reproduction at the lowest cost.
