Mutoh previewed a new flatbed CMYK, white and varnish UV LED printer, the XpertJet
1462UF, with moving gantry at Fespa Global. The new printer has a print bed of 1470 x
740mm and will print on substrates and products up to a height of 150mm.
The new product is an extension to Mutoh’s existing XPJ-461UF (A3+) and XPJ-661UF
(A2+) direct-to-object desktop UV LED printers and has an integrated multi-zone vacuum
bed and is equipped with two piezo drop on demand printheads mounted in a staggered
setup. The first head prints CMYK, the second white and varnish, enabling 2-layer printing
or Braille and 2.5D structure prints.
Expected to be released later this year in the EMEA the printer will be offered with a new
generation of soft UV LED inks compatible with a broad range of substrates and free of any
SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) ingredients.
