The Specialty Graphic Imaging Assocation (SGIA) 2017 Product of the Year in the UV Flatbed + White ($100K-$200K) category is Mimaki USA's JFX200-2531, the Georgia-based company announced.
"This Mimaki engineered platform is the next generation in a line of industry leading flatbed printers and addresses the need for continuous production when printing to large boards, multiple rigid surfaces, or templated jobs, by delivering exceptional performance only achievable with UV curing technology," said Ken VanHorn, vice president of Business Development and Administration.
The JFX200-2531 boasts dual origin points and a user-controllable, twin independent vacuum pump system that enables operators to position up to two 4-foot by 8-foot boards, multiple jigs or smaller pre-cut pieces onto the table for continuous printing, VanHorn said.
The 10-foot flatbed printer "can also accommodate oversized sheets with a total printable area up to 98.4” wide x 122” long and up to 2” thick," he added.
Seventy-plus companies submitted 222 entries into the competition’s 49 categories.
