Watch our Agfa Jeti Tauro H3300 in action — one of only two in the U.S., demonstrating high-volume, wide-format hybrid UV printing capabilities.

 

We Join a Limited Group of U.S. Operators Running Industrial-Grade Hybrid Automation


1Vision has completed commissioning of the Agfa Jeti Tauro H3300 XUHS, a next-generation hybrid UV LED printing system that dramatically increases wide-format production capacity while streamlining its automated print-to-ship workflow. This industrial-grade system enables high-volume output with minimal manual intervention, reducing errors and maintaining consistent quality across complex projects.

As one of only two U.S. operators running this level of industrial-grade hybrid automation, 1Vision demonstrates leadership in next-generation wide-format production. The installation reinforces the company’s strategy to integrate robotics and intelligent production systems, ensuring faster turnaround and predictable results for enterprise retail clients.

A companion video offers a behind-the-scenes look at the system’s installation and integration, highlighting the scale and sophistication of 1Vision’s production capabilities. Rather than expanding footprint, this investment focuses on maximizing efficiency, reliability, and execution speed, positioning 1Vision for the future of automated wide-format production.

 

Engineering Speed From Print to Ship

The objective behind this upgrade is straightforward: reduce time-to-market through throughput, not shortcuts.

The Tauro H3300 XUHS is designed for ultra-high-speed production, capable of output approaching 1,280 square meters per hour in high-speed modes while maintaining commercial-grade quality. This allows production to move efficiently through printing, finishing, and fulfillment without sacrificing accuracy or brand consistency.

By pairing increased print speed with automated workflows downstream, production timelines that once took days can now be completed in significantly shorter windows. Approved artwork transitions more quickly to finished, packaged, and shipment-ready materials.

 

Automation That Reduces Human Error

The Tauro platform is built for environments where repeatability and consistency are essential.

Automated media handling, precision feed systems, and UV LED curing help ensure uniform output across runs, reducing common issues such as alignment drift, color variation, and handling damage. Fewer manual touchpoints mean less rework and more predictable results.

 

Built for Franchise and Multi-Unit Rollouts

Enterprise and franchise brands require predictable execution across large volumes.

With this platform in place, 1Vision can support initiatives such as:

  • Promotional campaigns with fixed launch dates

  • Menu boards, signage, and in-store refreshes

  • Seasonal or regional branding initiatives

  • Simultaneous multi-unit deployments

The system’s hybrid design supports both rigid and roll-to-roll production, allowing jobs to move efficiently while maintaining consistent quality across substrates.

 

Speed Without Compromise

The Tauro H3300 XUHS combines high throughput with UV LED curing, allowing prints to exit the press fully cured and ready for finishing. Eliminating drying delays enables faster cutting, packing, and shipment.

Print faster. Finish sooner. Ship earlier.

By reducing friction between print and fulfillment, the production cycle becomes easier to manage and more predictable.

 

Core Technology & Performance

Wide-Format Hybrid UV LED Print Platform


At the center of this expansion is a next-generation hybrid UV LED printing platform engineered for industrial-scale production across both rigid and flexible substrates. The system combines flatbed and roll-to-roll capabilities within a single production engine—enabling seamless transitions between job types without sacrificing speed, quality, or consistency.

With support for oversized media formats, the platform is designed to handle large-format signage, retail displays, banners, and high-impact visual applications commonly required in enterprise and multi-location environments.

 

High-Throughput Production at Industrial Speeds

Built for output at scale, the platform delivers industry-leading throughput in high-speed production modes—capable of producing hundreds to over a thousand square meters per hour, depending on configuration. This level of performance enables 1Vision to support large campaign volumes, compressed timelines, and sustained production runs without bottlenecks.

Multiple system configurations allow production speeds to be optimized based on job requirements, balancing quality, efficiency, and turnaround expectations.

 

Automation-Driven Workflow Efficiency

The platform supports a wide range of automation options, from assisted loading to fully unattended production workflows. This flexibility allows production teams to reduce manual handling, streamline job transitions, and maintain consistent output across shifts.

Hybrid workflow capabilities enable smooth switching between rigid sheet printing and roll-to-roll production—including dual-roll configurations—maximizing uptime and reducing changeover delays.

Advanced production software orchestrates prepress, color management, job scheduling, and imaging controls, helping ensure accuracy, repeatability, and predictable execution across high-volume runs.

 

Print Quality and Media Versatility

High-resolution imaging delivers sharp detail, consistent color, and strong visual impact across a wide range of applications. Multi-channel ink configurations—including specialty options such as white, primer, or varnish—support both standard production and enhanced visual effects for retail and branded environments.

The system accommodates a broad spectrum of substrates, from rigid boards and plastics to vinyls, films, backlits, and specialty materials—supporting both indoor and outdoor use cases across retail, commercial, and experiential applications.

 

UV LED Performance and Operational Impact

UV LED curing technology enables prints to be fully cured immediately upon output, eliminating drying delays and accelerating downstream finishing, cutting, and shipment. This capability significantly compresses the print-to-ship timeline.

LED-based curing also delivers operational advantages, including reduced energy consumption, lower heat output, extended lamp life, and compatibility with heat-sensitive materials—supporting both efficiency and material flexibility.

Optimized ink delivery and profiling help reduce ink usage per square meter while maintaining color density, adhesion, and durability.

 

Built for Reliability and Continuous Production

Engineered for multi-shift, high-volume environments, the system is designed to operate reliably under sustained production demands. Its industrial build supports long production cycles with minimal downtime, making it well-suited for enterprise workloads that require consistency at scale.

This level of durability and repeatability enables predictable output across large batches and extended campaigns—critical for distributed rollouts and brand consistency.

 

Strategic Value for Scaled Operations

By combining high-speed throughput, automation, and instant curing, the platform enables faster transitions from approved files to finished output—supporting accelerated fulfillment timelines.

Automation and workflow control reduce variability across runs, helping ensure accurate, repeatable results whether producing hundreds or tens of thousands of units.

This investment aligns with 1Vision’s long-term strategy to expand production capacity through scalable, future-ready infrastructure that supports growth, responsiveness, and operational reliability.

 

Investing Ahead of Demand

This installation reflects 1Vision’s approach to investing ahead of market demand rather than reacting to it. As marketing timelines continue to compress and expectations increase, production infrastructure must evolve to support faster execution with fewer variables.

The Tauro platform is part of a broader roadmap that includes expanded robotics, intelligent workflow orchestration, and continued automation across finishing and fulfillment—designed to increase throughput while improving consistency.

“This installation represents a meaningful step forward in how we approach production at scale,” said Casey Landers, Sales Operation Manager of 1Vision. “Automation allows us to move faster and more consistently, while maintaining the level of quality our partners expect.”
