Mimaki to show technical breakthroughs at ITMA

Crucially, these features will enable textile and garment manufacturers to achieve unparalleled flexibility and enhanced application opportunities for increased business growth. To facilitate these benefits, the new Mimaki printer allows multiple sets of inks to be loaded simultaneously, supporting increased fabric range versatility and maximum product variety.

As the future of textile printing and for further production benefits, Mimaki will also give a sneak preview of its new and upcoming TA Job Controller software, specifically designed for textile production environments.

Featuring pioneering inkjet printing equipment, advanced workflow software and top-performance inks, Mimaki will demonstrate how its long-term commitment to the textile arena and extensive investment in R&D, can help textile print service providers to boost their business. It will also show them how they can cut their production costs and diversify their offering to maintain competitiveness.

Further, visitors will also see the company’s flagship industrial digital textile printer, the Mimaki Tiger-1800B MkII – in dye-sublimation configuration. The Tiger-1800B MkII features a number of pioneering Mimaki core technologies, including Mimaki Advanced Pass System (MAPS) and Nozzle Recovery System (NRS). MAPS prevents banding and colour-shifting during the printing process by spreading the edge of each pass to create a gradient.

From its advanced TR series, Mimaki will also show the TR300-1850C coating machine and the TR300-1850S steaming machine, and the benefits of a total solution for textile print production. Providing the equipment needed to operate the entire digital textile workflow, Mimaki’s all in on solution ensures complete technology compatibility, as well as increased productivity, print quality and reduced production costs.

“As a pioneer in textile printing, this industry has always been in our company’s DNA and we are excited to show our extensive textile portfolio at ITMA 2019,” said Danna Drion, marketing manager EMEA, Mimaki Europe. “The potential of digital printing in textiles is clearly evident, and we aim to provide the technology to enable our customers to take full advantage of it and grow profitably.”

Mimaki will also use ITMA 2019 to showcase its wide range of flagship solutions addressing different textile market segments. These include Mimaki TS55-1800 and Mimaki UCJV300-160. Mimaki TS55-1800 is a dye-sublimation business-enhancing printer, the TS55-1800 addresses the entry and mid-level markets offering continuous operation and an unprecedented price-quality ratio. Mimaki UCJV300-160 is a roll-to-roll UV LED inkjet integrated printer/cutter, featuring a white ink capability.

This array of technological breakthroughs represents only one side of Mimaki’s commitment to the textile industry. At ITMA, the company will also demonstrate its cooperation with world-renowned designers who are driving innovation with cutting-edge and inspirational printed textile applications. As part of this approach, Dutch retail fashion designer, Tessa Koops will use the show to demonstrate the power of Mimaki digital print technology for increased creativity, personalisation and profitability within the fashion industry.
