Unmatched Precision with Linear Motors
Step into the future of industrial flatbed printing with SIGNRACER’s advanced linear motor technology. Unlike traditional belt-driven systems, our linear motors deliver direct and precise control of the carriage, ensuring smoother and faster movements. This innovation greatly reduces vibration, preserving excellent print quality even in the most detailed 3D printing applications. Additionally, with fewer moving parts, linear motors enhance durability and require less maintenance. Consequently, SIGNRACER printers become a reliable choice for high-speed, precision-intensive tasks in demanding industrial environments.
Superior Accuracy with Linear Encoders
SIGNRACER equips its industrial flatbed printers with advanced linear encoders developed by RLS to deliver exceptional accuracy. Our printers feature a 1-micron resolution encoder, ensuring perfect alignment of print heads for detailed and wide-format prints. The non-contact, magnetic rail design of the linear encoder prevents wear and tear, providing long-lasting performance. Resistant to dust, ink, and chemicals, our encoders ensure consistent and reliable operation even in harsh industrial settings. With SIGNRACER’s precision-engineered components, you can achieve flawless print quality.
Robust and Durable Chassis
Every SIGNRACER industrial printer features a strong, industrial-grade chassis built for 24/7 production. We manufacture the chassis externally and carefully assemble them in our Trier, Germany facility. Each chassis is customized with print heads, LEDs, electronics, and optional features based on customer specifications. Our strict quality control process includes detailed assembly reports and comprehensive test prints, ensuring that every flatbed printer meets the highest standards of performance and reliability.
Advanced Printhead Technology
Partnering with Ricoh, SIGNRACER offers state-of-the-art printhead technology, including the exclusive Gen.5s with 2.5 pl and the pioneering Gen.6 models. These smaller drop print heads excel in applications requiring exceptional precision, such as printing intricate watch faces and industrial components. Our collaboration with Ricoh keeps SIGNRACER at the forefront of printhead innovation, delivering superior quality and performance to our customers.
Custom Waveforms
We develop our own inks and waveforms, which is crucial for small drop print heads like Gen.5s and high-frequency models like Gen.6. This feature allows us to achieve even higher print output and top quality at maximum printing speeds without compromise. SIGNRACER waveforms perfectly complement our ink formulations, especially in grayscale printing, ensuring outstanding results.
High-Performance UV LED Systems
SIGNRACER integrates UV LED systems from IST INTECH, engineered for maximum efficiency and longevity. Our air-cooled LED systems eliminate the need for water cooling tubes in the cable chain, enhancing reliability and ease of maintenance. Available with a 3-year warranty, these modular LED UV configurations are customizable for applications involving varnish and primer. The long-lasting LEDs provide optimal light wavelengths that perfectly match our ink and varnish formulations, ensuring superior curing performance with options for delayed curing when needed.
LED UV Adjustments
Our LED systems are adjustable from 10-100% with a maximum power of 16 Watt/cm². High settings allow for quick curing and the best adhesion, while lower LED performance can benefit further production processes such as CNC machining and stretching materials. This flexibility ensures that SIGNRACER printers can adapt to various production needs seamlessly.
Ink Bottles
The ink bottles serve as the printer’s ink reservoirs. We ensure slow aging of the ink by never mixing old inks with new ones. This approach results in a very stable printer with no sediment buildup in the bottles since they are always changed regularly. Consequently, SIGNRACER printers maintain consistent performance and print quality over time.
OEM Inks
Our ink reservoirs are designed to promote slow aging by ensuring that old inks are never mixed with new ones. This method results in a stable printing system with no sediment buildup, maintaining consistent print quality. SIGNRACER OEM inks, produced by Nutec Digital, feature low viscosity formulations that operate efficiently at temperatures between 38°C and 40°C. These inks require less cleaning during operation and experience reduced aging, making them ideal for printing on flexible materials like leather with the highest adhesion on various substrates.
Greenguard Certified
The GREENGUARD Gold Certification ensures the interior products are low in chemical emissions, decreasing indoor pollution levels. This program sets the most stringent guidelines for total VOC emissions. Greenguard Gold Certified products emit minimal gases. They maintain healthy indoor air quality, by reducing our chemical exposure. Low level of formaldehyde emissions specifically, makes them suitable for use in child’s room or educational settings which has to meet even stricter standards. Lower emissions mean healthier indoor air, thereby reducing the risk of asthma, allergies, respiratory diseases; eye, nose, throat irritation; reproductive and developmental defects; various diseases and forms of cancer.
Digital Primer
SIGNRACER’s integrated digital primers can print adhesion promoters only under printed areas. Our high-performance UV LED technology cures the primers directly or with delayed curing. Delayed curing forms solid, film-like surfaces suitable for all industrial production purposes with challenging materials. The solid primer film provides strong adhesion to the material and creates unique effects using white and color on the top layer, enhancing the overall print quality and durability.
Cable Chain
Signracer uses e-chain® cable carriers from IGUS in Germany for 24/7 operation. Cable carriers are referred to as the lifeline of modern machinery. These durable cable carriers ensure a safe supply of energy, data and inks while under constant motion. Tested for over 2 Million cycles!
Anti-Static
Our anti-static system is located between the print heads and LED to ensure maximum efficiency. The maintenance-friendly design allows for easy cleaning of the anti-static module. We choose the anti-static carriage module from Kersten in Germany for its highest performance. With over 40 years of experience, Kersten is a leading supplier of system solutions for electrostatics, ensuring that SIGNRACER printers operate smoothly and efficiently.
CE Certification
European CE certification makes sure that all components of our printers are in accordance with European standards. In addition we offer technical support through our experienced engineering team for all our customers across Europe.
