Complete ecosystem for visual communication production

TEKNOVA provides the complete visual communication chain: eco-solvent, UV, sublimation, and DTF printing, cutting with the KUTT line, laser cutting and engraving, CNC machining, digital cutting, and lamination. The key differentiator is handling printing, finishing, and technical support through a single national supplier, with a 12-month warranty and support in Portuguese.

A sign and graphics print shop rarely operates with a single piece of equipment: it prints, cuts, laminates, and finishes. When each step comes from a different supplier, support becomes fragmented and production halts.

The TEKNOVA portfolio covers the stages in sequence — printing, cutting, contour cutting, engraving, and lamination — with unified technical support and replacement parts through the same channel.

How to set up a visual communication production line

  1. Step 1

    Define the products

    List what will be sold — stickers, banners, signage, rigid panels — and the estimated monthly volume.

  2. Step 2

    Choose printing

    Roll materials require eco-solvent; rigid materials require UV flatbed.

  3. Step 3

    Define the finish

    Contour-cut stickers require a cutting plotter with camera registration; outdoor pieces require lamination.

  4. Step 4

    Sizing the structure

    Check space, voltage, and exhaust requirements with the technical team before installation.

Frequently asked questions — Visual communication

What machines do I need to start a visual communication print shop?

The basic setup includes a large-format printer, a cutting plotter with contour reading, and a laminator. Laser cutting and CNC routers come into play when rigid signage materials are involved.

What is the difference between UV and eco-solvent printing?

With UV, ink is cured by ultraviolet light and prints on rigid, non-absorbent materials. With eco-solvent, ink dries by evaporation and penetrates vinyls and banners, generally with a lower cost per meter.

Does TEKNOVA provide technical support after purchase?

Yes. TEKNOVA provides commercial assistance and technical support for the equipment sold, with a 12-month warranty along with installation and training guidance.

Where is TEKNOVA located?

TEKNOVA is located at Rua Luigi Amorese, 6995, Jardim Leonor, Londrina/PR, CEP 86072-150, open Monday through Friday, from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM.
