Birmingham, UK – July 2024 – SwissQprint is set to make a significant impact at The Print Show this September, with the Kudu flatbed model taking center stage for its UK debut.

This marks a pivotal moment for the industry as swissQprint brings its high-end UV LED printer to the forefront.

Groundbreaking Technology and Unmatched Productivity

Since its launch at FESPA 2022 in Berlin, the Kudu has garnered widespread acclaim.

This 3.2 x 2m UV LED printer boasts a remarkable productivity rate of 304m²/h, leveraging the latest printhead technology to achieve a stunning resolution of up to 1350dpi.

Visitors to The Print Show will witness firsthand the Kudu's exceptional capabilities.

Versatility Redefined

The Kudu is not just another printer; it is swissQprint's first model to offer ten color channels, significantly enhancing application diversity. Attendees will see the full spectrum of its ink offerings, which include CMYK, light cyan, light magenta, light black, white, effect varnish, and primer. In addition, swissQprint exclusively offers spot colors like orange and neon yellow and pink, further expanding creative possibilities.

Sustainability at Its Core

Energy efficiency is a key pillar of the Kudu’s design, consuming just 2.2kWh of electricity—equivalent to an average kettle. This commitment to sustainability aligns with swissQprint's mission to provide eco-friendly solutions without compromising on performance.

Award-Winning Excellence

The Kudu has not only been well-received but has also earned the title of 'Best flatbed/hybrid printer > 250m²/h' at the EDP Association Awards. With seven units already operational in the UK, it is clear that the Kudu is a preferred choice for businesses seeking top-tier printing solutions.

Expert Demonstrations and Interactive Displays

Erskine Stewart, Managing Director of swissQprint UK, emphasizes the importance of exhibitions in connecting with new audiences. “This will be the first show in the UK where we demonstrate the new Kudu flatbed printer. This high-end machine has been a game changer for businesses seeking high productivity and quality as well as expanded capabilities.”

Attendees can expect a comprehensive demonstration of the Kudu's range of applications, including roll-to-roll production, neon, and varnish effects.

The swissQprint booth will feature diverse displays tailored to the sign and display market, showcasing applications such as ACM, acrylics, point of sale, and fabric printing.

Revolutionizing Retail Applications

A special section of the booth will highlight revolutionary retail applications, focusing on backlit printing and packaging solutions with neon colors. This immersive setup aims to demonstrate the wide array of versatile applications that businesses can achieve with a swissQprint machine.
