ZF84 – 8′ x 4′
Fluid Color ZF84
High-production 8′ × 4′ LED UV flatbed printing powered by industrial Kyocera printheads at speeds up to 2,689 square feet per hour.
The Fluid Color ZF84 is an industrial LED UV flatbed printer designed for high-speed direct-to-substrate production. With Kyocera printhead technology, an 8′ × 4′-class print area, multiple printhead configurations, and 2-pass production speeds reaching up to 2,689 square feet per hour, the ZF84 delivers the speed, print quality, and rigid-media versatility required for demanding production environments.
8′ × 4′ Flatbed Production with Kyocera Performance
The ZF84 combines the versatility of a full-size industrial flatbed with the speed and performance of Kyocera printhead technology. Its 8.20 × 3.94-foot print area is designed for direct printing across a wide variety of rigid substrates.
Multiple printhead configurations allow the ZF84 to be tailored around production requirements, with configurations ranging from 2–4 single-row printheads to 8–10 printheads in a symmetrical-row configuration.
Up to 2,689 Square Feet Per Hour
The ZF84 provides multiple production modes so operators can select the right balance of speed and print quality for each application.
2-pass mode reaches speeds up to 2,689 square feet per hour, 6-pass mode reaches up to 990 square feet per hour, and 12-pass mode reaches up to 445 square feet per hour.
