Visual Impact - Mutoh debuts the XpertJet 1462UF direct to object printer

The Mutoh stand features the Australian debut of the XpertJet 1462UF following its release at FESPA last year.

Russell Cavenagh, Managing Director, Mutoh Australia says “since its launch at FESPA in 2023 it’s been very well received by the Australian market with over ten units installed locally already.”

“It is perfectly suited for direct to object printing which is a high margin growth category. What we're finding is that many clients already have a desktop flatbed. They've built volume and they're looking to grow their business. The XpertJet 1462UF enables them to offer a broader range of niche products to the customers they already deal with. Made in Japan, it prints on anything up to 150 mm thick, has staggered heads with CMYK white and varnish, It is a single pass machine and does everything in one go.”

“Also on stand is the XpertJet 661UF UV-LED flatbed printer which includes a larger printable surface area, updated touchscreen panel, improved LED lamp and more. The MUTOH XPJ-661UF allows for layered printing to create fine textured prints and Braille, all of which will instantly add value to any print. The product has been in the market for some time and has over one hundred installations in Australia alone.”

“For those starting out Mutoh also offers the “business builder” a 1370mm or 54 inch eco solvent printer. It's a small lightweight but very fast eco solvent printer. Youu can print 10 to 15 square meters per hour, but it's only 80 kilos so it's easy to carry in to a small area rather than fitting in a 220kg 1.6m wide printer. It is CMYK and is based on existing technology that we've had for some time, but we've added all the Accufine print heads to it and some other IP to make it faster,” concludes Russell.
