Mutoh has recently unpacked the successor models of its VJ-1324 and VJ-2638 printers, the new single head 1.37 m (54”) wide ValueJet 1324X and the dual head 2.6m (102”) wide ValueJet 2638X. Engineered and manufactured in Japan, the newly introduced printers incorporate high performance micro piezo head technology. The ValueJet 2638X incorporates two print heads mounted in a staggered configuration, whereas the VJ-1324X includes a single print head. The printhead can produce ink droplets as small as 3.5 up to 35.2 picolitres. Each variable drop print head has eight channels with 180 nozzles per channel, comprising four colour section ready to produce top print quality at high output speeds.

The ValueJet X series printers are targeted at long term outdoor and indoor sign and display applications such as posters, banners, backlit signage, wall coverings, point of sale displays, fine art reproductions, vehicle graphics, stickers and much more. For the UMS inks, Mutoh recently obtained a pan European Indoor Air Comfort Certificate, which makes the inks ideally suited for the production of certified indoor deco prints.
