Irvine, Calif., June, 2024 – Roland DG Corporation, a leading manufacturer of wide-format inkjet printers and advanced digital devices, proudly announces that three of its innovative products have been honoured with PRINTING United Alliance 2024 Pinnacle Awards.
These award-winning products will be featured at the PRINTING United Expo 2024, taking place from September 10-12 in Las Vegas.
They are also highlighted in a special online showcase available here.
These prestigious awards recognize the following standout products:
1. Dimensor S large-format textural printer in the “Technology” category
2. DIMENSE™ media for the Dimensor S in the “Media - Textile - Traditional Wallcovering” category
3. VersaOBJECT™ MO-240 benchtop UV flatbed printer in the “Tabletop Flatbed (Industrial/Small Item Decoration)” category
Open to all PRINTING United Alliance supplier members, the Pinnacle Product Award competition evaluates products set to be available for sale in 2024.
This year, more than 160 entries across 58 categories, spanning analog, digital, output, and non-output technologies, were meticulously judged by a panel of industry experts.
Brian Brooks, Roland DGA’s manager of product management, expressed his excitement over the recognition. “We are thrilled to see three of our newest products receive these prestigious awards from the PRINTING United Alliance,” said Brooks. “DIMENSE media and the Dimensor S printer offer users new dimensions in digital decorative printing and access to new markets with vivid imagery and tactile embossing. Our VersaOBJECT MO-240 – an extremely versatile and productive benchtop UV flatbed capable of printing vibrant, detailed graphics on a wide variety of substrates and three-dimensional objects – is worthy of this important recognition as well. These unique product offerings demonstrate Roland DG’s ability to consistently develop and provide cutting-edge technologies that enable users to achieve stunning results, expand their product offerings, enhance productivity, and maximize profitability.”
Judging Criteria and Significance
Output devices were judged based on reports generated by measuring color charts and comparing them to industry specifications.
“This is the only competition I know of that reports on the percentage of Adobe RGB a printer can hit,” said Dawn Nye, Pinnacle Awards program manager for the PRINTING United Alliance. “Some categories were decided by tenths of a point, so the competition was fierce this year.”
Nye further emphasized the importance of the Pinnacle Technology honor awarded to Roland DG’s Dimensor S textural printer.
“The Pinnacle Technology Award competition represents the entry that is truly innovative and likely to have a significant impact among commercial hardware, software, consumables, and industrial and screen equipment. Congratulations to all the winners.”
