The Rhopac 160 is the first entry level digital press for corrugated displays. The new printer allows printing houses and corrugated converters to enter the profitable corrugated display market. The Rhopac 160 is the only UV press specifically designed to print on corrugated boards as well as on a large variety of rigid and semi flexible POP materials. This, coupled with a roll to roll printing option, makes the Rhopac 160 the most versatile POP printer in the market. Furthermore, the Rhopac 160 can be a valuable tool for corrugated packaging converters by increasing customer loyalty through enabling them to offer printed samples and test marketing. he Rhopac 160 builds on the long industrial experience of the other Rho family members. This includes Durst`s own proven Quadro® Array printhead technology, which provides a print quality of the highest standard. The reliable transport of corrugated boards, during the printing process, is guaranteed by special manual adjustable edge holders and an extra strong vacuum. It is therefore ideally suited for printing high quality displays and sample packaging. Very compact in size, the rugged construction provides excellent durability and longevity. It is also able to be upgraded with additional printing features such as Durst`s world leading white ink printing and selective varnish or light colours.
