With its robust construction, strong vacuum hold-down and energy-efficient LED curing, the machine is designed for reliability, precision and long-term stability across a wide range of substrates.
Designer / Production Tips
Designers working with this machine can take advantage of its expanded ink set, especially when producing work on transparent or dark substrates where white or varnish layers are beneficial. Jobs requiring neon or orange inks should be clearly specified so the correct profiles are applied during pre-press. Although the Nyala 5 can achieve very high speeds, fine-detail or photographic work will run in slower quality modes, so planning for longer production times may be necessary. When preparing artwork for large rigid boards or oversized panels, ensure layouts respect the machine’s maximum sheet size and recommended bleed allowances. For roll media, accurate edge registration and appropriate tensioning are important, particularly when switching between roll and rigid workflows. Clear communication of substrate thickness, weight and finishing requirements will help ensure smooth production and optimal results.
