LANDA S10P

The UK's first Landa S10P is at Route 1 Print!

We are the proud owners of the UK’s first nanographic press – a new printing technology that is set to revolutionise the industry. This new press combines offset methodology with a digital operating system. So you get the best of both worlds.

Nanoink is made up of pigment particles which are less than 100 nanometers wide. At this size, the particles no longer reflect white light, so you can see the full colour vibrancy of your print. 27.4 billion ink drops are deposited every second with this press.

This ink is applied to a heated blanket before being transferred to the substrate. Heating the blanket causes the ink to start drying immediately so each droplet maintains integrity when it hits the stock, keeping your image sharp. It also means less ink is absorbed into the paper, and therefore less ink is wasted.

What is Nanography?

Nanography refers to the application of nanotechnology to the digital printing process. This technology was developed and patented by Landa Corporation (Rehovot, Israel). Nanography uses carbon nanotubes and other nanoscale materials to enhance print results.

This is entirely new technology!

●It uses inkjet heads to jet ink onto the blanket

●The Landa has a conventional litho paper handling system which is made by Komori

●It then dries the image on the blanket (this is unique to this process)

●The image is then transferred to the paper on the impression drum

This technology enables the Landa S10P to produce up to 95% of Pantones.

Our press is a CMYK configuration, whose inkset can match 84% of Pantone colours, 30% more than standard offset inks. 

What is a Landa?

The Landa S10P is a B1 sheet fed digital press, which uses patented Nanographic technology to achieve industry leading results.

What can it print?

It can print on all off-the-shelf substrates with no pretreatment, which gives the Landa huge production potential. At the moment we are predominantly sending digital quantity (500 copies or less) flyers and booklet covers to this press, with a view to expand this once ramp-up phase is completed.
