Building on the proven success of its UJF-7151 plusII, Mimaki has introduced its next generation model, the UJF-7151 plusII e, pushing the limits of print innovation even further.
Mimaki is setting a new benchmark for industrial flatbed UV printing with the introduction of its new UJF-7151 plusII e, which introduces key advancements to help businesses print higher, print deeper, and print smarter.
The UJF-7151 plusII e is a high-performance model that retains the high-quality printing up to 1800 dpi, highly precise positioning, heavy media compatibility, and stability evaluated in the previous model, the UJF-7151 plusII, along with improved productivity and reduced running costs.
“We regard the UJF-7151PlusII e as the ideal solution for customers looking for high-end, premium-quality direct-to-object printing,” Kohei Kobayashi, managing director at Mimaki Australia, tells Print21.
“Since the launch of our first desktop UV flatbed printer, these machines have created highly profitable businesses for nearly a decade. However, with the growing demand of personalised products, the market has become intensely price-competitive.
“This is where the UJF-7151 series has always stood out – by producing more than just your standard flatbed printer capabilities.”
High-performance flatbed UV LED inkjet printer
Equipped with 1800 × 1800 dpi mode (6C+2SP ink set only), the company says that even detailed drawings and extremely fine text are “reproduced beautifully and precisely”.
Furthermore, the six-colour configuration including light colours (Lc and Lm), enables “beautiful non-grainy printing with natural, elegant gradations”.
Ball screws are located at both sides (x-axis) of the print table, which helps stabilise table drive during printing. Ball screws are also used at the z-axis side to achieve a table load capacity of 30kg – allowing the use of heavy materials and high-precision jigs for industrial applications.
An array of eight staggered printheads is also implemented, which the company says helps achieve top-level productivity in the same product category.
The printable area is 710×510mm, enabling the printing of size 636×469mm – which is commonly used for screen printing.
Every head is also equipped with an ink circulation mechanism that prevents pigment precipitation and removes bubbles from the ink, which further stabilises printing and reduces the frequency of required cleaning, along with the running costs tied to it.
On top of all this, the conventional 2.5D Texture Maker now features an Emboss Mode capable of printing up to 5mm in thickness, and an LD Mode enables optimal printing even when the printing material surface has height differences. The UJF-7151 plusII e also supports LD3 Mode, which allows for the printing at distances of up to 10mm from the print head to the printing surface.
“Now, with the release of the new UJF-7151PlusII e, we’ve taken our innovative technology even further, setting the benchmark for the future of direct-to-object printing,” Kobayashi adds.
“Along with high resolution and precise image quality, this new model offers printing on uneven surfaces of up to 10mm in height, embossed printing up to 5mm thick, as well as high-speed braille printing.
“I encourage customers to see the difference first-hand – feel the quality, think about the possibilities it has to offer, and also how it could elevate your business.”
A compact multi-function cutter for the UJF-7151
Used in combination with the UJF-7151 series, Mimaki’s CFL-605RT supports material sizes up to A2 extra and has a variety of functions including eccentric, tangential, and reciprocating cuttings and creasing, which are ideal for package mock-up production and small-lot package production.
The CFL-605RT is designed with Mimaki’s well-established technology, and supports on-demand production by multiple functions, including cutting and creasing, while delivering efficient sample and package production. It provides the whole production process, including printing onto goods and packages, and cutting of cushioning materials.
In terms of cushioning for packaging, the CFL-605RT cuts thick materials neatly by a vertical reciprocating motion, and is capable of cutting materials up to 10mm thick.
The blade cuts thick materials by a vertical reciprocating motion and is ideal for foam or cardboard cutting. In addition, the blade is capable of cutting a range of material thicknesses – from thin to thick, by precisely controlling the blade edge direction.
The blade is able to cut not only thick materials up to 2mm, but also thin films by controlling low and high downforce pressures precisely. The blade edge is automatically and precisely controlled along contour cutting lines specified by the software.
And because lightweight or thin materials tend to move or lift during cutting, the CFL-605RT offers a combination of features to prevent this problem.
A compact built-in vacuum unit holds the material in place during reciprocate cutting, while an adsorption sheet (SPC-0787) put on top of the material to be cut enhances vacuum suction by reducing air flow through the material, allowing for the adsorption sheet to then be easily unrolled from the left side of machine.
Mimaki says that the combination of CFL-605RT and UJF-7151 plusII e offers a total solution, not only for printing on a product, but also for the design and creation of product cushioning and packaging.
This combination delivers effective high-mix, low-volume production and significantly shortens the lead time for prototype creation and small-lot production by on-demand fabrication.
From promotional goods and packaging prototypes to nameplates, signage, and personalised products, the UJF-7151 plusII e empowers print providers to deliver superior quality and consistency job after job.
The Mimaki UJF-7151 plusII e industrial flatbed UV printer is now available in the Australian market and is currently in Mimaki’s Melbourne showroom for those interested in getting a closer look.
