Newly introduced Mimaki UJF-3042 MkII delivers best-in-class flatbed prints

Launched at the recent Media Expo 2016 in New Delhi, Mimaki UJF-3042 MkII UV flatbed printer has opened up a new scope in flatbed printing, delivering best-in-class print speed with good adhesion to acrylics and many other materials, including glass, metal and resins. The printer is also ideal for producing membrane switches or wallet smart-phone cases that must be pressed or folded. A variety of ink types are available for these systems, enabling printing on both rigid and flexible materials, including inks designed for durability with excellent scratch resistance, and inks that can be stretched up to 170 percent without cracking. Textures can be added using a clear varnish ink.

With format sizes of up to 60 x 42cm, Mimaki UJF-3042 MkII UV flatbed printer offers significantly improved printing quality as the system has completely redesigned table technology, further extending the range of applications that can be printed directly to rigid materials. This enables the type of cost-efficient production of mock-ups, samples and short-run products by stakeholders across the entire plastics supply chain that has been difficult to achieve in the past.
