@@garyguildea6817 the main reason we use the UV for stickers, labels and same day signage is that they are cured and dry immediately so we can laminate the straight away and get them cut and sent out. Prints on the eco solvent need to out gas for a few hours before they’re laminated. There are pros and cons to both print processes which is why we have both in the print room

@@thevinylguys I see what you mean. We’ve a vg3 at the minute and working around the time for out gassing can sometimes be awkward. It’ll be a while yet before we need another machine but I can see the use in having a UV and eco solvent as you mentioned. We’re planning on expanding into doing more labels and particularly more safety/warning labels & signage so always handy to know what process suits best and what process others use for producing them. I see you have a Roland flatbed, how are you finding the output from that?

Thanks 👍🏻 overall we think it’s a vast improvement on the BN20 in terms of speed and functionality but that’s not to say the original BNs need to be quickly sold and forgotten. Like all Roland machines; if they’re looked after they can last for years creating some amazing prints and solid margins and pay for them selves over and over. Having said that if anyone’s at the point where they can make the decision between the two, then the BN2-20 is the logical one to go for

The board material is correx fluted board. Cost effective, lightweight and rigid enough to last the required time needed by the customer. We do also produce these using aluminium composite panels for customers who need longer lasting signage

@@thevinylguys thanks for your reply.. Where to buy these boards from and how long does it last for please...also how to learn about signage materials?

@@CustomiseIt just google your local supplier for correx or fluted board. Depending on the print you put on them (eco solvent or UV and laminated or unlaminated) and the environment it’s used in, they can last years. Realistically in a construction environment they tend to be used for 3-6 months and replaced

Let us know how it goes and anything else we can help with just give us a shout

Thank bro i was struggling with swatchs but now in better will try it tomorrow morning if this works

That’s a Roland print and cut machine VG2-640

They’re being contour cut yes, not perf cut though

@@thevinylguys awesome

You can do on the rear panels depending on the van but sometimes if it gets cut down on the sides it can be to make the larger sections more manageable. We always use a good quality polymeric air release material which also makes dealing with panel curves a lot easier, especially for full coverage on the rear doors that have more complex curves (panels curve horizontally and vertically) such as a transit custom or transporter

Hi, thanks very much, glad you’re finding the content useful. I’m afraid you can’t adjust that speed. It may be worth making sure you leave some extra material at the front of the job to prevent it catching on the cover or lifting when feeding when it’s reading the crop marks

If you look at our videos on the channel there is one covering this
