Mimaki have started 2021 with a bang. The industry experts have launched two new machines and are teasing a third, along with the launch of RIP software Rasterlink 7.
The brand has released the ‘100 Series’ consisting of the JV100-160 solvent-based printer and UJV100-160, their LED UV printer.
Mimaki is leading the way on investment and productivity in sign and graphics. Constantly changing to keep up with new technologies and draw in new customers, Mimaki is known for being a global pioneer in digital printing and cutting technologies.
Mimaki's Exclusive UK Distributor, Hybrid Services’ MD, Brett Newman, anticipates strong uptake of the new models.
“The new UV and solvent ‘100 Series’ printers represent the ideal combination of features and performance at a highly competitive price point.”
YPS believe the new machines will be a great success and a perfect fit for our customers. There are so many reasons to invest in the latest technology from Mimaki. Here are our 5 main reasons to buy the Mimaki UJV100-160 LED UV printer.
The Mimaki UJV100-160 brings together cost-efficient technologies with the versatility to perform at a rate faster than ever before. This brings us to our first reason to buy;
1. Low running costs
The revolutionary combination of Mimaki’s recently released competitive ink, the LUS-190, and reduced electricity consumption, due to the printer’s UV-LED technology, results in an impressively low cost of ownership.
YPS understands running costs are an important factor when considering an investment, such as the UJV100-160. Fortunately, Mimaki had this in mind when designing their latest machines. Unlike their larger print & cut machines, the UJV100 is aimed at smaller businesses, and therefore the total cost of ownership is an important factor.
2. Reducing job turnaround time by up to 90%
Another important factor when considering the UJV100’s demographic is the end-users time. By reducing job turnaround by up to 90%, in comparison to solvent machines, Mimaki is aiming to make your business more efficient.
This impressive figure of up to 90% is reached by instant curing ink, which allows the print to be finished immediately. This eliminates the need for drying time, which is required with solvent printing.
Making use of Mimaki’s 6th generation LED-UV technology to cure/dry the ink instantly, combined with print speeds of up to 23m2/h, creates an impressive printing and shipping same-day process.
3. Two-layer print function
Supplied with a two-layer print function that makes use of the printer’s white and clear ink, you can create prints that exceed your customer’s expectations.
The two-layer function has been designed to be user friendly and easy to use, resulting in high-quality prints.
4. Print on almost anything
Another way to inspire your customers is with a wide range of media.
The enormous choice of print media will draw in new customers and inspire your current clients.
The UJV100-160 can support a range of applications due to the low-heat LED-UV curing. Mimaki’s 6th generation LED-UV technology enables printing on a wide range of materials. Leaving you with options you wouldn’t have had before, such as transparent and colour materials.
5. Print stability
Mimaki’s latest technologies reach further than LED-UV curing and competitive inks.
The new Dot Adjustment System, together with their Nozzle Check Unit and Nozzle Recovery System, provide you with the superior print quality and efficiency your competitors are looking for.
These new technologies can be simplified to your customers as ‘quality in print you won’t have seen before’.
