Flexible UV ink (F-200)

The F-200 flexible UV ink can be stretched by up to 200% and be used for embossing processes such as membrane switches as well as for film-insert molding like panel switches for electronic appliances.
The ink is not likely to crack or split even after molding. For example, print on membrane switches with lamination is unaffected after actuating the switch 500,000 times. Highly opaque white ink is also available to be used for back printing on transparent or front printing on colored materials, to provide vivid full color reproduction.

    UV Primer (GM-1)

The UV primer for Standard Mimaki UV ink also works as adhesive between ink and printed materials. By applying the liquid to inorganic rigid surfaces like metal and glass, the ink adhesiveness on such materials is much improved thereby extending product durability. Mimaki has succeeded in developing a primer which is chemically compatible with standard Mimaki UV inks and greatly increases adhesiveness between the ink and substrates.

    Comparison of existing rigid substrate UV ink and flexible UV ink (F-200)

*           Surface hardness is described as pencil lead hardness.
The harder it is, the stronger it is against scratch resistance.
*           The surface of F-200 ink is less hard than that of rigid substrate ink due to its flexibility. Laminating after printing is recommended.

UV Primer-GM-1 is effective to improve adhessiveness on the materials.

Direct printing also possible on curved three-dimensional surfaces.

Inkjet printing is a non-contact printing method. Since materials to be printed, such as plates or blankets, are not in contact with the print head, highly precise and beautiful printing is possible even on uneven surfaces of shaped objects. Photographs and illustrations can therefore be vividly expressive.

Performance           

Note:To prevent the occurrence of problems due to ink mist when printing on three-dimensional items, the area around the head should be cleaned frequently. Also, the greater the distance from the head, the more the printing quality declines, so prior testing is necessary.

Productivity

High productivity in printing on small items.

Because production is possible on a made-to-order basis thanks to the on-demand capability of the printer, printing requirements can be met the same day, for instance.
Setting up a jig and arranging items to be printed on the table, mass production can be achieved speedily. As this shows, the UJF-605C is remarkably productive for printing on small items.

The UJF-605C enables direct digital printing on three-dimensional and other special materials.
The inkjet printer is ideal for a wide range of printing jobs, from sample creation to full-scale production.

Exclusive RIP included as standard, compatible with EPS, PS, TIFF, JPEG and BMP file formats
