The company is demonstrating a mix of hybrid, roll-to-roll, and textile inkjet systems on its stand at the Barcelona event, with a focus on helping print businesses increase productivity, expand application offerings, and improve automation.
Frank Pennisi, CEO at EFI, said: “Fespa is a global meeting point for print innovation, and it’s the ideal platform to demonstrate how EFI technologies help our customers grow and adapt in an increasingly dynamic market.
“From soft signage to superwide production and high-end hybrid printing, our portfolio is designed to give print providers the flexibility and efficiency they need to stay competitive and profitable across every segment.”
Among the launches is the EFI VUTEk M3h X hybrid printer, aimed at higher-volume sign and display production. The system supports both board and roll media, with features including white ink, multilayer printing of up to nine layers, and LED curing.
EFI is also debuting the 3.4m-wide VUTEk FabriVU 340 i8 dye sublimation printer, which uses an eight-colour configuration to extend colour gamut and improve reproduction of challenging brand colours. The printer supports inline fixation and can print directly to polyester-based materials at speeds of up to 375sqm/hr.
Elsewhere on the stand, EFI is demonstrating the VUTEk Q3h XP hybrid LED printer in a new seven-colour configuration, alongside the 5.2m-wide VUTEk X5r roll-to-roll LED printer, which features automation technologies including inline trimming, automated job collection, and EFI’s EFInsight analytics platform.
The X5r is also being shown with EFI’s InSpec AI quality control system, designed to identify print defects during production and reduce waste and reprints.
EFI is additionally highlighting developments in its Nozomi single-pass inkjet platform for signage, display graphics, and corrugated packaging, as well as textile technologies including the EFI Reggiani ecoTERRA pigment ink solution and the new EFI Reggiani ecoNEXT Plus industrial textile printer.
