Challenges

As we are engaged in many roll jobs, we want to shorten the work process by use of UV. We outsource jobs requiring white ink, which we want to perform in-house.

Improvements

Introduction of UCJV300 increased our productivity substantially. We succeeded not only in shifting jobs using white ink to in-house production, but also in enhancing the quality. We gained the capability to perform printing on colored materials and transparent materials with high density and high quality.

Challenges

As our jobs using aqueous inkjet printer are decreasing, we want to shift to different type of printers. We also want to reduce the cost and risk by omitting laminating process.

Improvements

Substantial cost down was achieved by shifting to UV inkjet printer. UV supports wide variety of materials, and brought us flexibility to print on wallpaper and transparent media, which was not possible before.

Challenges

We want to introduce a machine mounted with white ink. Also, there is a need to handle increasing window-related jobs efficiently.

Improvements

Introduction of UCJV300 enabled us to meet requests for short-term delivery of same day shipping, and to enhance our powers of expression in window decorations using white ink. We could reduce our stress by shifting jobs using white ink to in-house production.

Challenges

We want to omit laminating and shorten the processes for short-term signboards, and perform high-density printing on colored materials. We are also concerned about letters being scratched in jobs using sewing machine, such as banners.

Improvements

Introduction of UCJV300 realized omission of laminating process in short-term signboard jobs. High-density printing enabled us to print only letter parts on colored materials, which also helped us to reduce the ink cost significantly. We came to see almost no scratches in the sewing process of banners, which raised the quality.
