World’s broadest array of digital promotional printing solutions
At the show, Mimaki will demonstrate how digital printing solutions are set to revolutionise the printing of promotional items. With these creative solutions on show, visitors will be inspired to push the limits of digital printing to quickly, affordably and sustainably produce unique, high quality promotional items that will set them apart in the marketplace. On display will be:
- The Mimaki UJF-7151plusprinting on phone covers of different sizes, as well as acrylic keychains. The UJF-7151plus is a compact UV LED direct- to-object printer. It utilises state-of-the-art technology to deliver a powerful and reliable digital alternative to traditional screen print operations. With a print resolution of up to 1200 dpi, the UJF-7151plus features a 710 x 510 mm printable area. The machine uses process, white and clear inks plus primer. A Trotec laser cutting machine will be shown cutting the acrylic for the keychains.
- The Mimaki UJF-3042MkII and UJF-6042MkII. The UJF-3042MkII and the UJF-6042MkII are the latest generation of UV flatbed printers from Mimaki. The printers feature multiple ink options and support a wide range of applications, such as LUS-120 inks that can stretch up to 170% for printing on soft material surfaces like wallet smartphone cases. LUS-150 inks have 150% stretchability and are compatible with a wide range of materials. The LH-100 rigid inks are perfect for accessories or stationery products that must stand up to high levels of abrasion, as well as for printing on glass, metal and resins. At the show, these printers will be printing on power packs, pens, aluminium bottles and leatherette notebooks.
- The UCJV300-160. This integrated roll-to-roll UV LED printing and cutting solution includes a unique 4-layer Day/Night printing capability and internal lighting system that enables two different images on the same sign – one image appears when the sign is backlit and another when it is not.
“Mimaki solutions for digitally printing promotional items have so many advantages,” van den Broek adds. “We believe visitors will be surprised and inspired at the range of materials we can print on. One exceptional capability of our machines is the ability to print on uneven surfaces, such as printing on the edges of a phone cover, without a noticeable reduction in quality. Our LD mode allows printing on an uneven surface with up to 4,5 mm difference in media thickness, and we believe this is quite rare in the industry. We look forward to discussing new business opportunities with visitors to our stand!”
