Recommendation for Entry Level UV Flatbed

woloko

woloko!
Hello!

i'm an owner of print shop in Brazil.
we are planning to implement UV printer capabilities on our fleet.

Sino/Chinese UV is a NO GO?
The only affordable ones here are those, they are like a third of the pricing
in comparison (EPSON V7000 is like 500k Reais and Chinese Ones are around 100 to at max 300k Reais)

As it's the first iteration with UV we are Looking for versatility (Wood, acrylic, to DTF UV stickers sheets and such)

Do you guys have and entry level recommendations?

From my research the V7000 (and or V1070 V2070) is standing out...
Roland í've seem a lot of complaints on lack of materials that it adheres
Mimaki it's slow AND low quality, subpar compared to Roland and Epson
HP is a no go here, too much of a monopoly in the supplier chain and way to expensive its like 50% more expensive and doesn't even have varnish...

Also, to exploit the most of this kind o printer we would need a flatbed cutter also right?
