The new Mimaki 3DUJ-2207 3D inkjet printer is capable of accurately reproducing over 10 million colours and will be commercially available from January 2021. ‘The unique combination of full-colour capabilities and water-soluble support materials enables super-fine details to be printed in vibrant colour.”
“The machine delivers an affordable, scalable solution to drive accessibility to 3D printing and deliver its cutting-edge technologies to a host of new customers,” says Mimaki.
“Previously the first to bring over 10 million colours to the 3D printing market with its larger-scale industrial counterpart, the 3DUJ-553, Mimaki now combines the same impressive colour range and renowned build quality in a compact, affordable solution. With this latest offering, Mimaki aims to extend the reach and accessibility of its cutting-edge 3D printing technologies to an entirely new segment of customers.
“The innovative 3D printing solution represents a huge step forward for detailing and post-processing, with the unique combination of its full-colour capabilities and water-soluble support materials enabling super-fine details to be printed in vibrant colour, and then beautifully preserved without the substantial breakage risks usually associated with manual cleaning, painting and finishing.
“With additional features such as Mimaki’s trademark clear resin, which can be utilised alone or mixed with colours to achieve varying levels of transparency, the new 3DUJ-2207 3D printer presents a robust, advanced 3D printing solution with an affordable price tag – all within a machine sufficiently compact to fit in an office elevator.”
Danna Drion, senior marketing manager at Mimaki Europe: ““This launch will deliver a world of new possibilities to designers and product developers, for many of whom the idea of high-definition full-colour 3D printing might previously have been out of reach, and that is something we are extremely proud of.”
Set to be commercially available worldwide from January 2021, the 3DUJ-2207 has been designed with functionality at its core, with the compact design and reduced 203 x 203 x 76mm build space making it suited for office environments. The 3D printer’s quiet performance and optional deodoriser minimise some of the primary disruptions usually associated with 3D printing technologies, ensuring maximum workability in busy workspaces.
Utilising UV-curing inkjet technology, the expansive high-definition colour expression made possible with the Mimaki 3DUJ-2207 3D Printer is around twice that of powder bed manufacturing methods, according to Mimaki. “This provides new possibilities for prototyping and enables the accurate reproduction of subtle colour differences which are critical for many industrial design applications such as medical and architectural modelling. Additional applications include small-scale models for design offices and educational settings, as well as collectible figures.”
The Mimaki 3DUJ-2207 3D Printer will be exhibited online at Formnext Connect and as part of Mimaki’s latest virtual event, the Mimaki 3D Experience, from 10th November to 16th December.
