CPS will supply a wide range of Dlican UV printers to the UK market as part of a newly announced distribution agreement
China Print Supplies (CPS) has entered into a distribution agreement with Shenzhen Dlican Digital Technology, in order to supply the manufacturer's range of UV printers to the UK market.
The agreement gives UK print businesses access to Dlican's portfolio of UV printing equipment including UV flatbeds, hybrids, cylindrical printers, and printers with visual positioning.
Models on offer from CPS vary from compact desktop units to wide-format industrial systems, with bed sizes ranging from 1m x 1m to 4m x 2.5m.
Scott Clutton, managing director at CPS, notes that the models were chosen both for their performance and build quality, adding: "The print speed of these machines is also impressive.
“For businesses looking to increase throughput without compromising quality, Dlican's UV printers deliver the productivity gains that make a real difference to profitability. I was also impressed with the number of successful US installations in a relatively short time."
Dlican had a significant presence at the recent PRINTING United Expo, with the US market reportedly seeing more than 50 machines installed in less than a year.
The Dlican range includes wide-format flatbed models such as the DLI-3325 and DLI-4025, both of which are equipped with up to 16 Ricoh Gen 6 printheads.
Hybrid printer options include the 1.6m DLI-1688s with up to 18 Ricoh Gen 6 heads and the 3.2m DLI-3300s with up to 30 printheads, which are available with leather or mesh belt configurations.
Smaller-format options include the 1m x 1m DLI-1010, which offers up to four printheads and a 350mm print height, as well as the 1.2m x 1.6m DLI-1215 with integrated rotary unit.
Specialist models include the DLI-1319P, which features AI visual positioning, continuous belt scanning technology, and the DLI-360 automatic shape-mapping rotary printer for curved or irregular objects.
The Dlican range was chosen to complement CPS’ existing hardware portfolio, which includes equipment from SinoColor and Graphtec.
CPS released the SinoColor URP-3015 printer to the UK market earlier this year, which is designed to produce cylindrical graphics on glass, metal, plastic, ceramic, and wood.
