Mimaki wins Viscom Best of 2014 Award for two class leading solutions

Two Mimaki printers have recently been awarded Viscom Best of 2014 Awards in the Large Format Printing category.

The JFX200-2513 and the UJV500-160 LED UV printers were the winning machines, as the Mimaki team collected the awards at the three-day Viscom Frankfurt show in November.

Mike Horsten, general manager marketing EMEA, Mimaki Europe, commented: “Clearly the judges could not decide between the large format solution and the entry level model and so picked both. These newly-launched and market responsive solutions demonstrate perfectly how new technology can be readily adopted to support existing market segments or help businesses embrace new opportunities. Winning the Viscom Best of 2014 Award is the cherry on the cake.”

The JFX200-2513 offers a choice of LED UV curing inks, including white and clear, and prints to an array of substrates for unlimited opportunities and results.

Stuart Cole, industrial products national sales manager of Mimaki’s UK and Ireland distributor Hybrid services, commented: “The Mimaki JFX200 is proving to be a hugely successful solution. It’s easy to operate, has a compact footprint and maximizes productivity by using industry standard-sized media. The accolade from Viscom for this and the UJV500 is a great plaudit for us all.”

Energy-saving LED-UV curing with long-lasting LED-UV units is just one feature of the Mimaki UJV500-160. It also offers fast throughput, cost-effective and environmentally friendly curing, and 3M MCS warranted inks.

Mimaki’s expanding portfolio includes the two award-winning printers, as well as the new CJV300 and CJV150 ranges of integrated inkjet printer/cutters and the new Mimaki JV150 inkjet printer.

These were all on show at Viscom and will shortly be available in the UK and Ireland via Hybrid’s network of authorised resellers.
