How much experience would you like for the FLORA models?

Worked with FLORA for 3 years when DuPont was in this market. FLORA made our 22UV model. FLORA is a good Chinese company that will build them as you design them.

I am not entirely sure that you can buy a FLORA printer here in the US due to distribution agreements with manufacturers that "resell" their products under different badges. I know they can sell in Latin America and maybe Canada. I am sure someone can answer this one for me.

Biggest issue with FLORA is localized service and support... not very strong.

GraphixDirect is now the master distributor for the Flora 2512UV printer.

I think Flora does best when they build printers to other people's designs.....

I know they built the frame to my printer, but let's look at the long line of people who have fired them:

DuPont
Lexjet
Nazdar
CET
Dilli/Agfa
and rumor is that EFI is not happy.....

Ben,

Don't know that I would characterize the relationships as "fired".

DuPont and Lexjet both exited the business altogether and it had nothing to do with the printers from Flora.

CET maintains a relationship with them. I'll ask Dave next week what the status is.

Can't speak to the others.
