Epson names EPS North American partner for CONTOURJET object printer
Epson has appointed Engineered Printing Solutions (EPS) as its North American partner for CONTOURJET, a new robotic direct-to-object digital printing platform for decorating three-dimensional products. The system, unveiled at PRINTING United Expo 2026 in Las Vegas, combines Epson's printhead technology with robotics to print on complex shapes that fixed-head digital systems cannot reach. EPS will handle sales, applications development, installation, training and service across the region from the first quarter of 2027.
