Less than twelve months ago Queensland based Spot Productions invested in an Anapurna H2500i and Agfa Acorta cutting table. Due to their ever increasing work load, the need for another platform was evident and so the latest Agfa H1650 was purchased.
Simon Carmody Managing Director of Spot Productions said – “I have seen our new Wide Format Division grow at an amazing rate due to the continued support of our loyal Client base, so it was decided that more capacity was needed. Once this decision had been made we started our investigations to find a new platform that would compliment our existing range, but more importantly assist with our growth.
After a number of weeks researching possible solutions, Spots Management Team and I decided to move forward with Agfa again. The Quality from our first Anapurna LED platform was of such a high standard, we needed something that could match the output, so we decided to purchase the latest H1650 Six Colour LED Hybrid printer”.
The latest edition to the Agfa family of printers, the Anapurna H1650i LED device is a 6 Colour Hybrid Printing Platform. Speeds up to 63m2 per hour and able to deliver photorealistic images. Being able to switch swiftly from board to roll and by utilising the latest LED curing technology enables the operator to print Coreflute, Composite Panel, Acrylics, Foam PVC, Banner, Paper, SAV and heat sensitive stock.
Simon continues – “Also in our thought process was the need to keep a high level of support which Agfa have in abundance. Having experienced Sales and Engineering staff on call to react to our needs makes a massive difference, especially as a number of potential Suppliers continue to shed heads.
Wide Format started out as a hobby shop for us to add value to our existing Client base. Now it is a very important productive part of our Business as it adds tremendous value, especially on cross media campaigns, utilising Offset, Cut Sheet Digital and Sign and Display items”.
Michael Culver, Inkjet Manager Oceania said – “It is a pleasure working with Simon and his Team. Being asked to supply another machine was a great success story for all involved. When you gain multiple orders you must be doing something right. Spot are a loyal and dynamic Customer and we are excited about their continued expansion”.
