In addition to output by 3D printer, post-processing such as polishing and coloring was time-consuming. Also, the hue were not very good and sometimes the finished product was not as desired.

The size of the output at a time was increased, greatly reducing labor and time. Output could be done at a level that did not require post-processing such as scraping off and polishing. In addition, coloring work is no longer necessary and colors can be expressed as they are in the 3D data, expanding the range of applications and making it possible to realize a variety of offers.

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.

Collaboration between The University of Florence and Mimaki’s Italian importer Bompan results in a milestone for anatomical study.

The full-color “3DUJ-553” 3D printer was used to reproduce a 3D scanned human heart with high color accuracy.

Low color accuracy, fragile parts, and time intensive post processing produced less than desirable results with powder based full-color 3D printing.

The full-color 3DUJ-553 creates robust anatomical models with realistic color reproduction that are easy to post process.

When necessary, the Creative Design and Additive Manufacturing Lab at the University of Auckland added color to 3D prints by hand due to the lack of vibrant colors and affordability in full-color 3D printers.

The Mimaki 3DUJ-553 full-color 3D printer now allows the Lab to print in 10-million colors at a running cost affordable to the university.

The school principal need to provide the latest inkjet printers to students.

The LED-UV inkjet printer cures inks at low-temperature and therefore various media types are used for the class. Students are impressed by print speed and quality printing.

To provide practical signage class to students, the college needs to have machines used at the signage production studio.

The class is very meaningful through using of JV33, JV5 and JF series, and is reputed for a practical curriculum.
