Mimaki JFX600-2531

Based on the popular JFX600-2513 printer, this model doubles the print area to increase productivity or to produce oversized graphics.

The JFX600-2531 is a large format flatbed UV-LED inkjet printer with 2.4 times larger print area than the JFX600-2513, while maintaining the print engine of the JFX600-2513. It is capable of direct printing on architectural materials (glass, partitions, and plywood) with a standard size of 3 meters.

Description

Larger printing area enables printing up to 2.5 m × 3.1 m size.
Supports custom printing of standard size 3,000 mm long architectural substrates.

The print table size approx. 2.4 times larger than current model. It accommodates panels as large as 2.5 m × 3.1 m.


Larger printing area enables printing up to 2.5 m × 3.1 m size. Supports custom printing of standard size 3,000 mm long architectural substrates.

Supporting media as thick as 60 mm (Same as the JFX600-2513)


Supporting media as thick as 60 mm

Direct printing on media as thick as 60 mm allows you to expand the range of materials.

You can also print on standard 50 mm thickness channel boards with aluminum composite board, PVC board, etc. laminated on the front and back (real 52-53 mm thickness)!


Toggle print function added, allowing printing to continue without stopping the print production by dividing the print area into two locations: front and back.


The “Toggle Print Function”, which is exclusive to the JFX600-2531, allows the printer operator to set the print origins at two locations (Front/Rear) on the print table. In continuous printing of substrates A and B placed in front and rear of the print table, manual preparation such as substrates replacement, fixing and cleaning the surface can be performed while other side is being printed, thereby improving production efficiency while eliminating operators waiting time.


Toggle print function added, allowing printing to continue without stopping the print production by dividing the print area into two locations: front and back.

9-divided vacuum area improves work efficiency


Material suction vacuum area is divided into 9 sections, enabling suction according to the media used. No need to fill the gap of suction area when setting material; improving work efficiency.

Amazingly high productivity: Up to 330% higher speed (Same as the JFX600-2513)


330% faster than the previous model (JFX500-2131) by installing significantly more printheads.
The great increase in productivity allows for quick delivery of large format prints.

* Printing speed may vary depending on ink type/curing conditions.


Rich color expression: 6 color inks, including light colors (Same as the JFX600-2513)


GREENGUARD Gold

Six colors, including Lc and Lm, are available for rich color expression.
There are a wide variety of UV ink types to choose from to suit your application.
Every ink has gained the “GREENGUARD Gold” certification by meeting VOC (Volatile organic compound) emissions requirements, the most stringent standard in the world, from UL, a U.S. third-party safety science organization, and is recognized for its environmental safety.

The LH-100 ink has a high scratch/chemical resistance and an accurate color reproducibility. This ink is suitable for rigid materials. The LUS-120 ink has 170% stretchability after curing. Its ink film is very flexible and will not crack during post print processes. The LUS-150 ink has 150% stretchability after curing and will not crack during post print processes. This ink is compatible with a wide range of materials and has a low degree of tackiness.

MPC (Mimaki Printer Controller) using a graphical user interface (Same as the JFX600-2513)


It is a new software used for operation in the touch screen monitor connected to the printer. All operations are visually organized by item and can be performed on the MPC screen, including setting print conditions, checking work/printer status and work history, and checking maintenance instructions.


Job management status: One-touch instructions can be given for checking printer status, selecting jobs, etc.

Incorporation of the reliable Mimaki technology (Same as the JFX600-2513)


Mimaki’s image quality control technology ensures more beautiful prints

  • Waveform control: Thanks to Mimaki’s unique advanced ink droplet ejection control, droplets with high circularity can be ejected to make them accurately land on the media. This enables sharp expression of text, ruled lines, and edges.
  • MAPS4 (Mimaki Advanced Pass System 4): Banding (horizontal stripes), uneven color, and glossy streaks can be reduced to realize smooth prints by printing pass boundaries fading in gradation.
  • Variable dots: Three different ink dot sizes are used to enable high-quality prints with reduced graininess.

 

Reliable functions for stable operation

“NCU & NRS” not to stop work

NCU (Nozzle Check Unit) detects the status of nozzles automatically. When the NCU detects a missing nozzle, it automatically performs cleaning. If cleaning does not solve the problem, NRS (Nozzle Recovery System) automatically replaces the defective nozzles with other nozzles, which enables users to continue their operation without waiting for service representative.


"NCU & NRS" not to stop work

Mimaki Circulation Technology (MCT) minimizes downtime

An ink circulation mechanism is provided in the ink tank and ink path. It circulates white ink periodically to prevent nozzle trouble due to deposited ink pigments and to stabilize printing performance.
In addition, MCT contributes to reduction of ink waste, thereby supporting environmentally and economically friendly applications.
*MCT works only with white ink.


Variable expression to add more value to prints (Same as the JFX600-2513)


“2.5D Texture Maker” that enables easy creation of smooth semi-stereoscopic 2.5D data


Floor tiles printed with the 2.5D Texture Maker.

Multi-layered gradation data can be created by “2.5D Texture Maker”, a function of the bundled RIP “RasterLink7”.

Smooth expression of bumpy textures can be achieved using multiple layers of UV ink. This allows you to create realistic and eye-catching graphics.


White Ink and Clear Ink


Printing together with high-concentration white ink as the base color on transparent or deep-color media makes full-color images more vivid.
Clear ink printing enhances decorative effects such as mat, gloss and texture.


White ink: with white undercoat / without white undercoat

Clear ink: Butterfly pattern printed in matte tone

Primer


It is an inkjet primer that improves the adhesion of materials such as resin, glass, metal and those surface-finished.
Expanding the range of material selection, high value added applications can be produced.


Selective primer application

As the primer, PR-200 is applied simultaneously with color printing, the PR-200 applying only to the necessary part of material is possible, too.
Therefore the texture of the base material that was lost by conventional manual primer applying can be maintained.

Enhanced productivity through the reduction of frequent ink replacement tasks (Same as the JFX600-2513)


Option: 3L Ink supply option


Option: 3L Ink supply option

“3L Ink supply option” can increase the ink tank capacity to a maximum of 3 liters, also allowing for the 3-liter tanks of the Option to be replenished from 1-liter ink bottles. The 3-liter ink tank capacity reduces the frequently required refilling tasks to enhance work efficiency. In addition, the Option enables an ink replenishment even during printing processes, further reducing printer downtime to allow for longer operating and greatly improving productivity.

Automatic white ink agitation functionality is newly added to the “3L Ink supply option”, eliminating the need for manual mixing, thus contributing to the reduction of operator workload. Weight sensors are now incorporated to detect the weight of remaining inks, enabling for a more accurate determination of ink levels.


Connected digital printing (Same as the JFX600-2513)


Supports MDL (Mimaki Device Language) commands to automate the printing process

Mimaki offers command sets to enable customer production systems and peripheral devices to control our printers. Through applying these commands, the position and height of the media setting table, the start of printing, and other printer operations can be controlled. It also allows for the acquisition of remaining ink level and error information from the printer.

Regarding the MDL command, customers are able to build systems optimized to their individual applications by developing the necessary software using technical information (SDK) provided from Mimaki. The system will contribute to automation and labor saving in customers business.
