In April 2017, the “Experience Day by Roland & Promakim” interactive event provided attendees with the latest best practices and solutions using Roland DG technology at ATÖLYE. Around 200 people including makers, designers, students from colleges and store staff attended the event to discover what they can create with Roland DG devices in four areas, including print & cut, textile, UV printing, and 3D digital fabrication. Roland DG users shared their experiences with visitors. You can check out video highlights of the event below.
At the event, personalization products using a UV printer and dye-sublimation transfer printer attracted great attention. Visitors printed their name on small notebooks with a UV printer while a dye-sublimation transfer printer printed their favorite designs and photos for transfer onto bags.
Visitors and staff discussed what they could create with Roland DG devices.
A range of applications displayed the capabilities of Roland DG technologies, prompting visitors to interact with each other.
