MUTOH to launch new VJ-1638UR 64 UV-LED inkjet printer

MUTOH has announced plan to launch a new 64 inch VJ-1638UR UV-LED inkjet printer. Prior to the official launch from Japan, the ValueJet printer will be exhibited at the ISA (International Sign Association) Sign Expo 2018 to be held in Orlando from March 22-24. The VJ-1638UR is specifically developed for roll-to-roll printing at an affordable price with the quality and performance of MUTOH’s current UV-LED printers. The staggered dual printhead design and the dual UV lamps on the both sides of the printheads of the printer provide high productivity while also offering environmental-friendly features such as UV ink that is VOC free, low energy consumption and odourless after curing.

MUTOH UV-LED ink provides a wide range of applications. In addition, MUTOH ‘Cool Technology’ reduces working temperature allowing printing on heat sensitive media. Varnish ink will contribute to your sign and display business by allowing spot varnish and multi-layer printing which is not possible with solvent printers. The printer also comes standard with an automatic media registration pin system and a vacuum table with ‘blow-back’ feature for easy handling and positioning of heavy media.
