The machine will also be field upgradable to six heads to combine speed and functionality.
The PerformanceJet can deal with media thicknesses up to 100mm and 50kg/m², has a print bed sectioned in different vacuum zones and an air powered pin registration system to facilitate multi panel jobs and double-sided prints as well as a blowback feature for easy handling and positioning of heavy media.
It is targeted at print providers looking for premium-margin jobs, high print quality, added value specialty prints, productivity and an attractive environmental footprint, for the production of directional signage, fine art prints, tradeshow graphics, POP prints, retail signage, packaging samples, etc.
‘We are delighted to present the PerformanceJet for the first time in the EMEA business area at Fespa,’ said Kenji Yasuhara, managing director. ‘It will be staged next to our new roll-to-roll UV LED ValueJet 1638UR printer model which will also be presented for the first time in Berlin next week. With the addition of these two new products, Mutoh will be able to offer a complete portfolio of UV LED printers ranging from desktop object flatbed printers to wide format hybrid, roll-to-roll and true flatbed solutions.’
