May 9, 2025 (press release) –
Agfa has taken home a trio of EDP (European Digital Press Association) Product Awards for its new hybrid press, the Jeti Tauro H3300 XUHS. The powerhouse press received top honors in the engine, automation and ink categories, underlining its game-changing potential in high-volume wide-format inkjet printing.?
The Jeti Tauro H3300 XUHS impressed with raw performance and versatility, showcasing production speeds up to 1,280 m²/h, 12 rows of print heads, and robust engineering for 24/7 multi-shift operation. The result is stunning, offset-like quality across a wide range of media - from signage to cardboard and specialty substrates.?
“Winning in three distinct categories is a powerful validation of our commitment to innovation,” said Arnaud Calleja, Vice-President Digital Printing Solutions at Agfa. “It perfectly reflects the strength of our teams, the forward-looking nature of our technology, and our ambition to lead the industry into a smarter, more sustainable future”.?
Its hybrid design, 4 or 7-color configurations (including varnish), and extended vacuum with automated feed guides make it the ideal press for printers seeking peak productivity and uncompromised image quality.?
In the automation category, Agfa was awarded for the MAX Bots robots on the Jeti?Tauro?H3300?XUHS. This robotic system for loading and unloading reduces manual handling while maximizing throughput. In combination with the Flex RTR system, the MAX Bots let print service providers switch seamlessly between rigid and roll media, empowering them to run complex, mixed-media jobs with minimal intervention and maximum cost-efficiency.
The machine combines with the Tauro 30 ink set, designed for high performance on corrugated cardboard and rigid sign materials. It offers consistent jetting reliability, even at higher head gaps, and provides bending resistance up to 180° without cracking. The inks also help reduce costs through low consumption rates, while maintaining a wide color gamut.??
“The combination of speed, precision, and automation in the Jeti Tauro H3300 XUHS raises the bar for industrial inkjet printing” said Dieter Jancart, Segment Manager High-End Printing Systems at Agfa. “With its advanced robotics, it helps customers handle demanding production schedules while reducing manual labor and error rates. This press isn’t just keeping up with market demands - it’s setting new standards for what print service providers can achieve in terms of quality, efficiency, and versatility”.?
