SwissQprint Impala
A high-end inkjet printing system for rigid and flexible materials
Superior print performance and outstanding image quality makes the Impala the first and last choice for the professional graphics producer.Download the Brochure
Breathtaking print speed
Whether you're printing on flexible or ridgid substrates, the Impala can operate at 134 sq.m/h in draft mode which breaks previous speed records in this category and yet produces highly presentable results.
Multiple points of origin
The simple, quickly set registration pins are a unique feature. Next to defining the zero-origin, they also provide additional mechanical attachment points: format-independent, with as many as required to make efficient use of the printing table area.
Four to nine colour channels
The standard CMYK is expandable by a further five channels: light colours for lifelike skin tones, white, effect varnish, spot colours and even primer for special printing jobs.
White Ink
White ink has a well-known tendency for sedimentation. Impala keeps it flowing. Reliable print results are thus assured, regardless of how often white is actually used.
Media diversity
The UV-curing inks adhere to acrylic, dibond, wood, blueprints, polyester, polycarbonate, polystyrene, (high-density) PVC foam sheet, vinyl films, flexible foam panels and – with a bonding agent – even to glass and similar special materials.
Remarkable substrate dimensions
The Impala prints panels up to 2.5 m × 4 m and 50 mm thick, all this with surprisingly modest space requirements.
Targeted suction power
The stepless vacuum system is easily adjustable. A higher-powered vacuum option is available for industrial applications.
Made in Switzerland
Developed and manufactured in Switzerland, the Impala is all about precision, long service life and robust quality right down to the details.
