It was in August 2009 at Sign Africa in Johannesburg that we managed the mean feat of seling every machine on their exhibition floor and transporting them directly from Sandton Convention Centre to their new owners’ premises. One of those machines, the GCC K72UV had to wait a while due to the Sytech Supplies technical team not having had training on it themselves yet. The Taiwanese technical team that represented the manufacturer at Sign Africa 2009 stayed on a while longer after the exhibition to train our technicians.

By December 2009 the our guys were finally ready and the Durban-based owner of the GCC K72UV, Finish Factory, had their UV printer installed. Our technical Manager Richard Haarhoff and technician Norman Khuzwayo spent 3 days at the client’s premises, during which they installed, calibrated, profiled and thoroughly tested every aspect of the printer, specifically geared towards how Finish Factory will be using the printer. Both Richard and Norman were happy to conclude and report that the client is very happy with the purchase and look forward to use it to maximise not only the amount of work they can now get done but also the type of work that this printer enables one to do.

Some of the remarkable features of this machines are that it has dedicated white ink that can be used as a top coat or an undercoat. It has a clear coating that can also be used as a base or a topcoat.. and can literally print on anything. The guys at Finish Factory were so elated, they agreed to let us record video footage of the printer at work. Have a look at the video footage below:
