Mimaki has taken to Printing United 2025 in Orlando, US, to launch its new UJF-7151plus II e next-generation flatbed UV printer that aims to set a new benchmark for direct-to-object and industrial printing.
The company said as digital printing continues to expand across the custom goods and industrial sectors, manufacturers increasingly demand solutions that combine high print quality with cost-efficient, flexible and sustainable performance.
As such, the UJF-7151plus II e directly responds to these needs, building on the reliability of its predecessor while solving three key challenges that have long affected the market: maintaining consistent precision at high printing speeds, printing on curved or uneven surfaces, and reproducing sophisticated three-dimensional textures.
“With the UJF-7151plus II e, we are taking another step forward in industrial-grade direct-to-object printing,” Mimaki Europe sales director Arjen Evertse said.
“This model offers advanced features that unlock new levels of versatility, efficiency, and cost control. It’s designed to empower customers to produce high-value, high-impact applications with greater sustainability and accuracy.”
The new model achieves resolutions of up to 1,800 dpi thanks to its robust structure and high-precision position control. It also supports light cyan and light magenta inks, alongside CMYK, enabling smooth and natural reproduction of delicate gradations such as skin tones and landscapes.
In practical mode, the printer can print 19 sheets per hour (710 x 510 mm), offering a fast and flexible digital alternative to screen printing for on-demand, short-run production.
The UJF-7151plus II e also enables emboss printing up to 5mm, allowing richly textured surfaces and three-dimensional effects that elevate both the visual and tactile appeal of printed products.
With its new LD Mode, the printer maintains the same level of precision during direct printing on substrates with height differences of up to 10mm, ensuring stable results on curved, stepped, or moulded parts.
Equipped with Mimaki’s printable primer, when printing two colour layers plus primer and white, the process is approximately 3.7 times faster than with previous models. The Ink Saving Function cuts ink use by up to 40 per cent, maintaining colour accuracy and image quality while lowering operational costs.
In addition to the new features, the UJF-7151plus II e integrates Mimaki’s core technologies, including the Nozzle Check Unit (NCU) and Nozzle Recovery System (NRS) for uninterrupted printing, the Colour Gloss function for achieving glossy or matte finishes without clear ink, and RasterLink 7 RIP software, which supports variable data printing and efficient workflow automation.
The printer also features a high-load capacity table supporting media up to 30kg, allowing users to print on heavier, rigid materials than comparable systems.
The printer also supports GREENGUARD Gold-certified UV inks, including the ELH and ELS series, which are free from SVHC and CMR substances. In addition, IoT functionality (MDL support) enables automation and integration into smart manufacturing lines.
