Want to create high value-added products with diverse soft media. They promote labor-saving and automation of work while taking the environment into consideration. They also want to lower transportation costs and prevent ink cracks and dropouts during transportation.

UV printing on roll media, which is not possible with latex, enables production of 2.5D and other high value-added products. Roll media can be left on during output for automatic production. Flexible ink is resistant to bending, etc., and will not crack or fall off.

In the design and development of new products for footwear brands, it took more than a month from the time the order was placed to the time the prototypes were received. Also, it was taking time for the design idea to take shape and be put in the hands of the designer.

With the 3DUJ-553, a 3D design model of a shoe can be printed in one to two days, significantly shortening the time required to create a prototype, which normally takes more than one month. In addition, the process from design modification to prototype production can be repeated more times in a short period, leading to better product creation.

The Mimaki's JFX200 that was previously in our operation was a really good printer. While using it, I wanted a printer with even more productivity.

The JFX600, which supports a variety of print modes, is capable of printing approx. 15 full-size board per hour with even high image quality. And like the JFX200, its ease of setting media of various shapes and the repeatablity of print position accuracy were desitive factors in the investment.

Delivery within 3 days required even for large orders. Until now, several different printers had been used to handle large orders, but there was no room for production capacity.

The investment of the Tiger600 has tripled daily production, enabling the company to accept orders for three to four time the previous volume. In addition, orders for one-of-a-kind banners can be printed immediately for quick delivery.

Want to switch from traditional craft production to a new business

In four years, acrylic goods sales have grown to 80% of total sales!

Want to expand the business type that has grown during the COVID pandemic.

The company has expanded the scope of its operations through the introduction of the UCJV300 and other equipment. They plans to continue to grow its digital printing business.

Students from CREAPOLE design school in France participated in a 3-day shoe design workshop hosted by Adobe and On, a performance running shoes company. The winning designs were printed by Mimaki and awarded to the students.

Using the 3DUJ-553 to bring the students' shoe designs to life.

Struggled with modeling and coloring miniature models. Size development was also difficult.

Highly accurate full-color 3D printing eliminates the need for coloring. Flexible size expansion.

We have conducted printouts of the exhibition works using "JV330-160" and "TS330-1600".

Need a multicolor machine with high reproducibility of works.

Introduced "JV330-160" equipped with 8 colors including orange and light black. In addition to high reproducibility, the speed of finishing, stability of operation, and ease of use of the RIP software were highly evaluated.
