Ball & Doggett to showcase Mimaki UJ330H-160 Hybrid UV Printer

Following the official Australian launch of the new Mimaki UJ330H-160 Hybrid UV Printer last month, Ball & Doggett is staging a customer event in Sydney on 21 April, inviting businesses to see the printer in action.

“Our 330 Series has been recognised globally for exceptional image quality and production output. With the introduction of the UJ330H-160, we are extending those strengths to a hybrid platform that allows Australian sign makers and commercial printers to produce both roll and rigid applications on one machine, reflecting the evolving needs of a market that is seeking greater flexibility and in-house capability,” says Kohei Kobayashi, Managing Director of Mimaki Australia. 

“For many businesses where floor space and capital investment need to be carefully considered, this printer removes the need for multiple devices. It represents what we see as the next standard for our market.”
In its invitation to potential customers to come and see this ‘next evolution of hybrid technology’ live, Ball & Doggett explains that the UJ330H-160 has been designed to switch seamlessly between roll media and rigid board, which addresses a longstanding production gap in the local industry. Rigid production in Australia has traditionally required mounting, outsourcing or dedicated flatbed equipment, but the UJ330H-160 changes that equation.

At the core of the printer is a high-density, high-definition print engine that delivers consistent solids, smooth gradients, and premium finish quality at production speeds of up to 14.0 sqm/h. Automated adjustment functions further simplify operation, allowing consistent output without the need for highly specialised training, a key advantage in today’s skills-constrained environment.

The UJ330H-160 also incorporates UV inks formulated without SVHC and CMR substances, supporting safer workplace standards and alignment with increasingly stringent environmental expectations.
Integrated workflow tools, including RasterLink7 RIP software for multilayer and high-build effects, gloss and matte finishes, alongside the PICT cloud-based monitoring platform, provide end-to-end visibility from production through to management.
