Mimaki showcases two new products on two stands at Viscom in Frankfurt

Extended presence in 2016 with interactive exhibition zone

Amsterdam, 23 September 2016

Mimaki will once again be showing its wide range of innovative printing solutions for the display and advertising markets at VISCOM 2016 in Frankfurt from 2-4 November. This year, Mimaki will be present on two stands in hall 8: D44 and E51.

Visitors to Mimaki’s stands at the show will have the opportunity to see, the new TX500P-3200DS, on display for the first time in Europe. In addition, the new UV flatbed UJF-3042 MkII and UJF-6042 MkII printers will be shown publicly for the first time in Germany. They will also be able to participate in an interactive exhibit that will engage all five senses in a unique printing experience.

Andreas Lettner, General Manager Marketing at Mimaki Germany, states, “We are proud to be able to present a whole range of new printing systems to the German-speaking market at VISCOM. The new TX500P-3200DS offers a compelling complete solution for the direct printing of banners, allowing companies to take advantage of growth opportunities in soft signage. The combination of printing and heat fixation in a single pass saves time and cost for print providers. And our new UV flatbed models with format sizes of up to 60x42cm offer significantly improved printing quality thanks to completely redesigned table technology, further extending the range of applications that can be printed directly to rigid materials.” In addition, the new UJV55-320 3.2m grand format LED UV inkjet printer, ideal for colourful backlit applications, and the TX300P-1800 textile printer with pigment inks will also be on show.

Interactive Exhibition Zone ‘GOKAN’
On its second stand, Mimaki will give visitors a unique interactive sensory experience by applying the Japanese concept of ‘GOKAN’ – five senses. They will be able to view a print job from start to finish. Mimaki’s product specialists will be operating the machines exhibited on the stand. Mimaki’s CJV150 inkjet printer will be used for printing and cutting of images for application to T-shirts using POLI-TAPE ULTIMATE PRINT SOFT 4030 for heat transfer. Additional solvent printers, cutting machines and a UJF-7151 plus UV flatbed machine will also be available to visitors to participate in this unique approach to the trade show experience.

“This interactive concept is designed to demonstrate the ease of use and suitability for day-to-day applications of our products”, explains Uwe Niklas, General Manager Sales at Mimaki Germany. “Being able to experience print production with all five senses will show digital printing in a whole new light.”
