The ZL-3513H and ZL-3513S are high-performance industrial UV printing machines developed for professional printing companies and industrial manufacturers that need consistent output at production speed.
Both models combine Ricoh-class printhead technology, a precision motion system and a rigid steel frame, delivering stable, high-resolution results on a 3500mm printing width — shift after shift.
1. Advanced Printhead Technology
Depending on the model and configuration, the ZL-3513 series uses Ricoh G6 printheads in different arrangements. Small 5PL ink droplets and a firing frequency of up to 50kHz allow the machine to reproduce fine detail and smooth gradients while maintaining production throughput.
Key benefits:
- Fine detail and precision — 5PL droplets resolve thin lines, small type and sharp edges
- High-frequency inkjet — up to 50kHz firing frequency for fast, continuous output
- Consistent colour — stable droplet placement across the full 3500mm width
- Efficient industrial printing — designed for long production runs, not short demos
2. High-Speed Printing Performance
In 4PASS mode, printing speed depends on the feathering setting selected for the job. Typical output for the two models:
| Printing mode (4PASS) | ZL-3513H | ZL-3513S |
|---|---|---|
| No feathering | 1'39" / sheet | 1'17" / sheet |
| Low feathering | 1'55" / sheet | 1'43" / sheet |
| Medium feathering | 2'22" / sheet | 1'49" / sheet |
Actual output depends on image coverage, material and printing settings.
3. Precision Engineering for Stable Operation
Print quality at speed comes down to mechanical stability. The ZL-3513 series is built around components chosen for accuracy under continuous industrial use:
- Imported Japanese THK linear guides for smooth, low-vibration carriage travel
- An integrated steel frame that absorbs vibration and holds alignment
- A high-precision metal honeycomb platform for flat, repeatable substrate support
- A servo-driven motion system with closed-loop control
- Precision mechanical positioning for accurate registration on every pass
4. Large 3500mm Printing Width
A 3500mm printing width opens up large-format work that smaller flatbeds cannot handle economically — oversized panels, multi-up layouts and full-sheet production.
The complete system integrates:
- A large-format printing platform sized for industrial sheet work
- A UV ink system matched to the printheads and substrates
- On-board UV curing for immediate handling after print
- A dual-path negative-pressure ink supply for stable meniscus control
- PhotoPrint 25 RIP software for colour management and job preparation
5. Wide Industrial Applications
The ZL-3513H and ZL-3513S are used across a broad range of industrial printing sectors:
- Advertising — signage, display panels, exhibition graphics
- Packaging — rigid boxes, prototypes, short-run packaging
- Furniture — panels, profiles and decorative surfaces
- Building materials — boards, panels and interior finishes
- Commercial printing — large-format promotional and specialty work
Material compatibility should be confirmed through actual printing tests before production.
