Rogers’ DUREL Division Introduces EL System Finishing Center Model

Rogers’ Finishing Center consists of the Durel Electroluminescent (EL) substrate, thermal transfer ribbon and programmable inverter. The thermal transfer printing process is quick and easy, and links a PC to the programmer box, inverter and sequencer. Graphics printers can go from design to sign in just minutes.

Rogers’ roll coated EL substrate, which contains a front electrode (FE), phosphor (PH) and dielectric layers, is available in roll widths of 15” to 30” but can be assembled into much larger areas using simple lamination and assembly techniques to enable all sizes of OOH advertising to be backlit. Since there are no set-up costs incurred, printers can do efficient low volume runs or larger quantities – one, hundreds or even thousands of units.

Applications include POP, banners and posters, automotive and transit wraps, and street furniture. Since Rogers’ solution can be ultra thin (o.5mm) and flexible enough to be wrapped around a column, numerous designs never before possible are now within reach.

Rogers has more than 20 years of experience in developing innovative solutions in energy efficient, EL backlighting systems and EL drivers. EL lamps have been used in the automotive and electronics industries for many years. Now Rogers has brought this experience and the benefits of EL systems to the advertising industry.

Rogers’ RoHS compliant EL substrates and lamps are environmentally friendly and contain no heavy metals.
