/XP Quatro Series™ delivers double the LED power at a lower cost than two individual lamps while operating at top speed
Las Vegas, NV, USA – October 5, 2022 — As North America’s largest manufacturer of LED and UV curing technology, Baldwin’s AMS Spectral UV division will showcase its line of LED-UV retrofits for the sheetfed and web offset markets at PRINTING United 2022, taking place at the Las Vegas Convention Center from October 19-21. The patented XP Quatro Series™ will be featured as the latest evolution in an impressive portfolio of high-speed, high-performance LED-UV curing technologies, with information and demos available in booth N213.
“The market remains strong despite all of the global uncertainty, which means our customers have a lot on their minds – be it supply chain uncertainty, constraints, inflation ... many macro-economic factors outside of their control. We are excited to be able to welcome people to the Baldwin booth and show how we can eliminate many of those stresses with a broad range of products and innovations that increase automation, productivity, quality and reduce press downtime and waste,” said Baldwin Vice President of Sales Craig Black. “In addition to presenting information on our suite of solutions, we are happy to provide a space where printers can stop by to recharge, relax, and meet our team.”
XP Quatro Series™ LED UV System
This year at PRINTING United, Baldwin will highlight the newest addition to its line of innovative LED curing technologies for high-performance printing – the patented XP Quatro Series™. This LED-UV curing module is designed to cure printing inks and coatings more economically and efficiently than ever before. Hosting two powerful LED UV arrays, the XP Quatro Series delivers double the LED power at a lower cost than two individual lamps while operating at top industrial speeds. It is ideal for web offset printers who require a rugged, long-lasting press conversion and are looking to move away from reliance on gas to provide higher-quality product and an eco-friendlier footprint.
Also available for sheetfed offset LED retrofits will be the well-known XP and XO Series LED systems, two of AMS Spectral UV's tested and trusted flagship products. Known for performance and reliability, XP and XO are the industry standard for those competing for accounts that require top-quality results with every run.
