The Anapurna M2540 FB is a high-speed flat-bed, UV-curable inkjet printer for graphic screen printers, photo shops and sign shops. With a true flat-bed that delivers near photo quality, the Anapurna M2540 FB is designed to deliver exceptional value for your money.

Introducing the AGFA Anapurna M2540 FB

It’s 6-colour capability delivers a wide colour gamut and the on-board white ink lets you print on dark or transparent substrates for any application—indoor or out. The printer’s photo-quality capability delivers sharp text, even as small as 4 points.

The Anapurna’s robust flat-bed construction makes printing on rigid and sheet media so accurate that you can produce perfectly aligned double-sided prints. The revolutionary 8-vacuum zone can handle your heaviest, most demanding workloads with ease.

True Flat-bed

Agfa Graphics’ revolutionary bed-design ensures extremely accurate and reliable dot placement. The vacuum on the bed is divided in 2 table zones of 4 different compartments. This allows you to use different-sized media without having to tape off the whole vacuum bed. This design also allows you to use separate parts of the bed for different jobs in the same print run and still maintain a perfect vacuum. The vacuum can even be reversed in order to aid lifting of large substrates after printing.

True Quality

The Anapurna UV inks (CMYK Lc Lm + white) dry faster and produce a wider colour gamut, and that allows you to use a wider variety of materials. Agfa Graphics’ UV inks are proven to have great adhesion properties and high durability giving you longer lasting images that are resistant to outdoor conditions.

Due to the accuracy of the flatbed, we can print Pre- and Postwhite in a separate run with use of the full head. White ink is ideal to print on darker substrates or transparent media, as well as backlit and front-lit materials. You can even use it as a spot colour to highlight certain areas of an image.

The Anapurna M2540 FB has a separate white ink management system onboard. The white ink is stirred automatically at regular intervals ensuring that it is always in the best possible print condition.

Clean-cut prints: The Anapurna UV inks are flexible, making them the perfect choice for very demanding conditions, including temperature or humidity fluctuations. Agfa’s durable inks let you make machine or laser cuts without damaging the image, giving you a clean-cut print every time.

True Value For Money

The Anapurna M2540 FB is built on a true flatbed architecture so it can print on practically any rigid media and sheet material. White ink and 6 colours with 12 pl print heads allow this high-quality engine to deliver prints that will give you and your customers a competitive advantage. Because you can print multiple jobs on various sized media, this Anapurna is an ideal engine for step-and-repeat work.

Advanced Workflow Options

  • Choose to print multiple boards in one run to further enhance productivity.
  • Use the printer’s retractable register pins to position your prints for double-sided printing.
  • Select the double-strike function to make your prints even brighter and more intense.
  • Or choose borderless printing to avoid the extra finishing step, saving time and money.

Wide Range of Media

The Anapurna M2540 FB can print on practically any rigid and sheet material. It delivers exceptional print quality on a wide variety of indoor and outdoor media and uncoated rigid media such as corrugated boards, rigid plastics, plexi-glass, mirrors, exhibition panels, wood, aluminium, MDF, stage graphics and advertising panels.

Unlimited Applications

The Anapurna M2540 FB’s multiple options and wide media capabilities let you attract current and new customers with a wide variety of applications: signs and displays, POS, in-house decoration, in-store communication and so much more. Because any material up to 4,5 cm thick that fits on the bed can be printed with the Anapurna M2540 FB, the possibilities are endless.

Anapurna M2540 FB Advanced Technology

The Anapurna M2540 FB is outfitted with 11 retractable register pins. They position substrates perfectly to facilitate accurate double-sided printing.

While the printer is standing idle for long periods (e.g. the weekend) a head capping station prevents the print heads from clogging and enables immediate printing after restarting and warming up.

Ionizer elements eliminates electro static loads on the substrate ensuring optimum ink droplet control.

Although the revolutionary vacuum system holds the media very straight, a set of shuttle safety sensors on either side of the print carriage protects the valuable print heads by preventing them from hitting the media in case of irregularities.

A handy tray on the side of the printer stores the ink. Ink bottles are easily accessible and ink levels are monitored closely. An audible signal and a light indicate which colour needs to be refilled.

With the Anapurna M2540 FB you’ll be able to deliver creative, eye-catching colour like never before.

The Anapurna M2540 FB sets a new standard for UV-curable flat-bed printing.
