What Makes the VersaOBJECT MO-180 Right for You?
Whether you’re an established print business looking to upgrade your UV flatbed printing setup or you’d like to make your first purchase, you’ll want to know that you’re getting a machine that matches your needs.
Here are some things to think about:
- How much do you need to produce, and how quickly do you need to produce it?
- What do you plan on printing onto, now and in the future?
- Is space a concern?
- What technical expertise do you have?
So why is the MO-180 the answer?
1. Huge Range of Applications
Flexibility is key for the MO-180. UV printing is compatible with a wide variety of materials, from plastics and metals to wood and glass. Thanks to its generous print height, it can also handle objects up to 204 mm tall - much more than many similar devices.
So, what does this mean for you?
You can create:
- Personalised promotional items like phone cases, pens, and USB drives
- Branded corporate gifts
- Custom retail packaging, labels, and product displays
- Industrial signage, barcodes, and control panels
- Accessibility signage with Braille printing
- Bespoke home décor, from printed tiles to custom furniture panels
- Leather fashion items, luggage tags and office accessories
And if you want to print on bottles, tubes, or candles, no problem - the optional rotary attachment makes cylindrical printing simple. The MO-180 also makes it easy and cost-effective to offer short-run and one-off production for prototypes, samples, or limited-edition product runs, opening up new opportunities without high setup costs.
2. Brilliant Quality, Fast Turnaround
The MO-180 is designed to produce stunning, vibrant prints at impressive speeds. It uses Roland's latest EUV inks, which provide excellent adhesion to a huge range of surfaces, especially when combined with primer. The addition of Orange and Red inks means you can achieve richer, more vivid colours that really pop.
Thanks to the advanced UV-LED curing system and staggered print head configuration, you get outstanding print results with faster job completion times. Whether you are printing full-colour designs, detailed graphics, or textured effects like embossing and gloss, the MO-180 delivers consistent, professional-quality results.
3. Easy to Use and Easy to Maintain
Roland knows that a printer should make your life easier, not harder. That is why the MO-180 is packed with user-friendly features:
- A 7-inch touchscreen makes setup simple.
- Intelligent ink circulation system keeps maintenance low.
- Front access means you can load media and change inks without moving the machine.
- A status light allows you to see the machine’s state from across the workshop.
- Powerful but intuitive software also helps simplify your production.
The latest version of VersaWorks RIP includes many productivity-boosting features, making it quick and easy to manage your jobs and configure your prints. The Roland DG Connect device monitoring app gives you real-time data about your print workflow, allowing you to keep track of your machine’s status wherever you are. PrintAutoMate is a cloud-based workflow service that takes the complexity out of printing with jigs.
4. Compact Size for Maximum Flexibility
Space is often at a premium, no matter where you’re working from. The MO-180’s compact footprint means you can fit high-performance UV flatbed printing into places where larger machines simply would not be practical.
This opens up more possibilities for where and how you work, whether you are working in a small studio, a busy workshop, or adding new capabilities to a growing business. With its space-saving design, the MO-180 helps you maximise your production capabilities without needing to expand your workspace.
5. Perfect for Sustainable, Indoor Projects
Customers are more eco-conscious than ever. The MO-180 uses GREENGUARD Gold-certified inks, making it safe for indoor use, regardless of your work environment. These low-emission inks meet some of the world’s most rigorous standards for chemical emissions, supporting healthier indoor environments.
Plus, with large-capacity ink pouches and efficient energy consumption, the MO-180 helps print businesses minimise waste and improve their environmental footprint without compromising quality.
Expand Your Business with Confidence
The MO-180 is a solution, not just a printer. It is a chance to expand your services, win new customers, and take on more profitable jobs. With its combination of flexibility, speed, and reliability, it can help you grow your business without adding complexity or hassle.
