Unmatched Digital Productivity: The EFI Reggiani BOLT Textile Printer Receives the InterTech Technology Award
The ultra-high-speed, single-pass EFI™Reggiani BOLT digital textile printer from Electronics For Imaging, Inc. has received the InterTech™ Technology Award from PRINTING United Alliance.
The InterTech Technology Awards honor technologies predicted to have a major transformational impact on the printing industry. The groundbreaking EFI Reggiani BOLT is the very first textile printer to receive an InterTech Award.
Thanks to its cutting-edge printhead concept and high-performance ink delivery system for direct-to-textile printing, the 71 inch- (1.8 meter-) wide EFI Reggiani BOLT is the fastest digital textile printer available, delivering a top throughput speed of 295 feet (90 meters) per minute at a 600 x 600 dots per inch (dpi) resolution. It features high-end imaging in drop sizes from 5 to 30 picoliters, and also provides premium-quality 600 x 4,800 maximum-dpi resolution printing, allowing customers to address their full range of design needs.
Robust, reliable, high-performance digital textile production
As the InterTech Technology Award signifies, the EFI Reggiani BOLT printer stands apart from other devices, giving textile manufacturers high uptime and reliability, high-performance throughput, and unparalleled printing uniformity and accuracy. A robust, industrial platform solution designed for 24/7 operation, it offers an innovative, low-maintenance, fast-startup recirculation printhead that delivers high-quality printing with superior uptime. Users can reduce the cost per meter of digitally printed textiles with the EFI Reggiani BOLT while creating a broader range of designs quickly and efficiently. Plus, the printer can include one or more analog printing stations as an option, integrated into the digital printer for special effects.
“We are extremely proud of receiving this award,” said EFI Reggiani Senior Vice President and General Manager Adele Genoni. “EFI Reggiani is strongly committed to developing cutting-edge technologies and sustainable solutions for the textile industry, as we believe that innovation is the key to our customers’ success. This achievement further validates our never-ending dedication to delivering the best technology solutions possible and is a great source of motivation for the team.”
To date, three BOLT printers have been installed, one in Italy and two in Pakistan, and one more installation is being finalized in Pakistan. In the first year BOLT printers were in operation, they produced more than 10 million linear meters of printed fabric, and to date they have printed more than 25 million linear meters worldwide. It represents a worldwide record amount of digital textile output coming from a single printing platform, reflecting the printer’s highly reliable operation in high-volume environments.
