The world’s first trade exhibition exclusively dedicated to print technology for industrial manufacturing has a new recruit in Mimaki Europe, which has announced it will showcase two of their latest wide-format printers.

Mimaki’s Mike Horsten says: “We are thrilled to be part of this first-ever trade exhibition dedicated to print technology for industrial manufacturing and excited about the solutions we will be able to demonstrate to attendees. Mimaki has long played a leadership role in delivery of high quality digital textile printing solutions for custom fabrics, test marketing and short runs of printed textiles. In addition, we will be featuring some of our flatbed UV-curable wide format printers that produce a broad array of on-demand printed industrial applications.”

The firm will be demonstrating two of their latest print machines the Mimaki UJF-6042 and the Mimaki JFX500-2131. The UJF-6042 is a UV flatbed printer with LED curing and multiple ink options prints directly on substrates up to 150mm thick with a high quality finish.

Meanwhile the JFX500-2131 is a UV printer that incorporates new head technology and advanced LED curing.  Its head movement control produces a high resolution image quality that can produce legible fonts as small as two points. With print speeds of up to 60 square metres per hour with CMYK and 45 square metres per hour with white, it also prints on a wide range of applications, including both rigid and flexible inks.

The trade exhibition dedicated to print technology for industrial manufacturing will be held from 8th to 10th April, Hannover, Germany.
