UV-curable inkS
The UV-curable ink is cured and adhered to the media or substrate by UV radiation. The print is already dried when it comes out of the printer, allowing a short delivery request to be met. Printing on non-absorbent materials, including plastic, glass, and metal, is available. To give shape to ideas, Mimaki offers a range of UV-curable ink products to meet demands from various industries, ranging from decorating and architecture to industrial design.
UV curable ink [LH-100], [LUS-125], [LUS-120], [LUS-150], [LUS-170], [LUS-175], [LUS-190], [LUS-200], [LUS-210], and [LUS-211] gained the “GREENGUARD Gold” certification by UL LLC of third-party institution of safety science of the United States.
Environmental advantages: low-VOC ink and ozone-free LED–UV light
The color components of the ink are directly cured and adhered to the media or substrate by UV radiation, and the ink emits very low levels of VOC (volatile organic compounds). The LED (light-emitting diode) light does not radiate short wavelengths that generate ozone. Use of Mimaki UV-curable ink demonstrates consciousness about the environment and the health of users.
eco-SOLVENT INKS
In the ink, the pigment is dispersed in an organic solvent, and thus the ink is quick drying due to the volatility of the solvent. This property enables direct printing onto PVC, which are extensively used for both indoor and outdoor signage and displays. In addition to excellent weatherability and rub-fastness, our unique inkjet technology provides super-high picture quality without a granular appearance. Furthermore, “ease of maintenance” and “cost effectiveness” are also favorable features of this ink. Mimaki solvent inks are reputed worldwide for their beautiful long-lasting nature and are used as a standard ink for signage printing.
Solvent ink [AS5], [SS21], [SX], [BS4] and [CS250] gained the “GREENGUARD Gold” certification by UL LLC of third-party institution of safety science of the United States.
Fine and high quality image reproducibility
