Intelligent design features make the Mutoh ValueJet VJ-1626UH LED UV Printer easy to set up and operate. The VJ-1626UH comes with an optional front and rear roller tables, making the media loading quick and easy with media alignment options. Integrated roll holders and can handle 2″ and 3″ rolls. Media load levers are positioned both at the front and the back of the VJ-1626UH for convenience. These scroller supports enable non-motorised roll-off of rolls up to a weight of 30 kg. Different motorised winding/unwinding systems are available for roll-to-roll production and conversion to and from rigid to roll mode only takes a moment.

The Mutoh ValueJet VJ-1626UH LED UV Printer is compatible with rigid and roll media, including ABS, Aluminium board, PC, PE, PET, PES, PMMA (acrylic), PP, PS, PVC, Glass, and Uncoated Tyvek. The maximum media thickness for both roll and rigid media is 15 mm. The VJ-1626UH accommodates rigid boards from 182 mm up to 1625 mm x 200 mm up to1200 mm and up to 15 mm thick and up to 15 kg. The VJ-1626UH features rubber rollers to increase the versatility when printing on rigid media. The roller pressure can be controlled manually with a simple lever, enabling smooth media feeding and higher print quality.

Mutoh LED UV inks enable printing on transparent and colour media with four colours and white and varnish. Available in 220 ml cartridges and high capacity 800 ml bags (500 ml bags for white), Mutoh LED UV inks allow specialty finishes and the single print head setup for the VJ-1626UH LED UV Printer is optimised to work with Mutoh LED UV inks. LED UV Mutoh LED UV inks are zero VOC liquids which do not contain hazardous air pollutants (non-HAP). Both flex and rigid inks are available.

The Mutoh ValueJet VJ-1626UH LED UV Printer includes ValueJet Layer Editor Software, enabling the printing of up to three layers with various combinations at one time. Innovative layer printing function is exclusive to Mutoh and enables the changing of colours on the surface, to enrich the texture and enhance overall look of the print. Mutoh LED UV inks allow specialty finishes, by printing one layer for CMYK inks, white (only) or varnish (only). Printing three layers with colour, then white, then colour again can also be done, all at the same time. The use of layers creates an enriched layer appearance with incredible print quality and stability at a high speed on a variety of materials with a wide range of applications.

The Mutoh ValueJet VJ-1626UH LED UV Printer incorporates an ink drying system including one long life LED UV curing lamp, ensuring output immediately dry and ready for use or second state treatment. The powerful long-life (14,250 hours) LED UV lamp is Mercury and Lead free, and ensures ozone free, safe and ultra-sharp prints, which are ready to be used or laminated after printing. The UV lamps is on the side of the printhead and travels quickly across the printing surface. The LED lamp does not create heat toward the media, making the technology extremely well suited for handling heat sensitive media as opposed to classic UV or water-based resin ink technologies generating huge amounts of heat or relying on high temperature to dry the ink.

The ValueJet VJ-1626UH LED UV Printer is the most compact size compared to other printers in the same class. Measuring in at 2983 mm, competitor models are more than 23 cm wider. Ultimate flexibility is achieved with Mutoh’s ValueJet Status Monitor, (VSM) app for remote printer monitoring through a PC or a smart phone. VSM software, exclusive to Mutoh, maximizes the performance of the printer for remote printing.

Optional items for the Mutoh ValueJet VJ-1626UH include the Motorised Take-Up Systems, Media Retainer, and Media-Feed Table. For motorised roll up of roll media, the tension winder 30 system takes media rolls up to 30 kg or alternatively with a motorised roll off/take up system for rolls up to 100 kg. The Media Retainer is available to guide the set position for rigid media and pull the front edge of the media. The Media-Feed Table is for rigid media feeding and includes a media support bar.

Built to last, Mutoh ValueJets are renowned for precision engineering and meticulous production practices for years of profitable use. As you would expect from Mutoh, reliable performance is a given. For added peace of mind, Mutoh ValueJet printers feature a 12-month on-site warranty.

MANUFACTURER INFORMATION

Mutoh has been at the forefront of the wide format industry for more than 20 years. As an innovative developer and manufacturer of wide-format printers and cutters, Mutoh incorporates pioneering technology to bring you the best equipment for your application. Manufactured in Japan, Mutoh ValueJet printers feature best-in-class inkjet head technology, latest generation electronics and high quality inks.

Mutoh’s new wide piezo print head and new generation electronics offers a unique blend of high speed and high quality. The wide piezo print head features 8-channel drop-on-demand inkjet technology. Each 1440 nozzle head includes four colour sections (C, M, Y, K) each divided in two nozzle rows with 180 nozzles per colour. All four colour sections are in one head, eliminating the need for head to head calibration. The integrated print heads are capable of producing ink drops ranging from 3.8 picoliters to 28 picoliters, resulting in incredible accuracy, sharpness, and speed. Increased accuracy and consistency of dot size and dot release during printing improves the image, in addition to increased dot gain control, allowing for more latitude in profile settings. New generation electronics include higher carriage speeds and ink firing frequencies and adapted weaving algorithms give an impressive increase in productions speed as well as optimised ink spread and improved drying.

Mutoh’s award-winning Intelligent Interweaving print technology drastically reduces or totally eliminates the typical difficulties inherent to conventional digital inkjet printing, including defects such as horizontal banding, ink mottle, bleed and the visible effects of missing or misfiring nozzles. Ink is laid down in waves, as opposed to straight lines used on most wide format printers. The biggest benefit of this proprietary Mutoh print technology is that it offers predictable and repeatable output quality, bringing an unprecedented level of user comfort to the printer operator.

DropMaster technology is a revolutionary print automation technique which eliminates the need for media dependent head adjustments. Specifically designed for Mutoh’s dual head ValueJet models, DropMaster automatically calculates and adjusts the uni/bi-directional fire timings by analysing the media thickness and drop-throw distance between print head and media surface.
