The Audley 2513 UV Flatbed Printer 4‑G6 is a 2.5 m × 1.3 m large‑format UV platform built for industrial‑scale printing on rigid and semi‑rigid materials. Equipped with four Ricoh Gen 6 printheads and an optional visual positioning system, it delivers high‑speed, high‑precision output for acrylic signs, glass panels, wood décor, metal sheets, plastic boards and other flat substrates up to 100–150 mm thick (depending on configuration).
This configuration uses two Gen 6 heads for CMYK, one head for white and one head for varnish, giving you C/M/Y/K + White + Varnish in a single pass. You can build dense white underbases on dark materials, lay rich color on top and finish with spot or flood varnish for gloss, matte or textured effects that add value to signage, displays, packaging and branded products. Print speeds reach up to about 28 m²/h in draft mode, 21 m²/h in standard mode and 14 m²/h in high‑precision mode, so you can tune throughput and quality to each job.
The 2513 features an industrial vacuum bed with a 2500 × 1300 mm print area, designed to hold large sheets and multi‑up layouts firmly in place during printing. A UV water‑cooled curing system ensures efficient ink curing while controlling substrate temperature, which is especially important for plastics and composite materials. The new automatic thickness‑measurement function probes the material and sets print height more accurately, improving head safety and print quality across mixed or uneven media.
Driven by a Shanghai Royal control board specified for Ricoh heads and Photoprint RIP software, the printer supports advanced color management, multi‑layer printing and a wide range of file formats (TIFF, JPEG, PDF, EPS, BMP, etc.). It is intended to run with a powerful Windows workstation using an Intel Core i9‑10900K‑class CPU or better, at least 32 GB of RAM, fast M.2 SSD storage plus a 1 TB HDD, and gigabit Ethernet, ensuring smooth handling of large, complex print files.
Physically, the 2513 UV ships in packaging roughly 440–475 × 220–222 × 170–145 cm, with a machine weight around 850 kg and a listed gross weight near 2000 kg for crated shipment, reflecting its heavy‑duty steel frame and industrial build. This model includes the 4‑G6 head configuration, visual positioning system and RIP software, and comes with a one‑year warranty (excluding print heads and ink path components) plus lifetime support, giving shops a robust, upgrade‑ready UV flatbed platform for high‑value rigid printing.
