Case Study
Improving Reinforced corrugated fiberboard (RCF) Packaging Efficiency and Cutting Waste in Transportation and Material Costs: IPD Logistics Co.,Ltd.
As the company expanded RCF packaging, standard materials sometimes took more than 10 days to procure and pack, making lead times a challenge. Its existing cutting machine lacked the cost performance and productivity needed to improve profitability through in-house production and handle short lead times.
With the CFX-2550, the company brought RCF packaging production in-house, reducing lead times to two or three days. It cut outsourcing costs by about 9% and material waste by about 15%, while enabling short-run, quick-turnaround production tailored to each product size and improving customer service.
Why a Long-Established Print Factory Switched All Its DTF Printers to Mimaki’s TxF300-75:TERUMI ENTERPRISE CO., LTD.
The company’s existing Chinese-made DTF printers made stable production difficult due to time-consuming colour matching, frequent breakdowns, and heavy maintenance demands. This also made it difficult to plan production reliably for large-volume orders with strict delivery schedules.
By switching to the TxF300-75, the company improved color development and output stability, enabling it to plan production schedules with greater confidence. Film loading and continuous printing also became easier, significantly reducing the workload on operators.
Express Print boosts production using an expanded fleet of Mimaki technologies
As the company expanded in the advertising market, it needed to handle more diverse jobs, from signage and soft signage to custom apparel and promotional items. However, its existing equipment posed challenges in quality consistency, colour stability, and reliable continuous operation.
Mimaki’s large-format printing systems expanded the company’s capabilities across rigid media, roll media and textiles. Stable, high-quality output improved flexibility for short lead times and small-lot jobs, while standardised operations improved efficiency and reduced training demands.
From Life-Size Panels to Seals and Stickers: Size-Flexible Applications Expand In-House Production and Boost Repeat Orders: REC Corp.
They use a laser cutting machine for material cutting, but when cutting life-size panels made of aluminum composite panels, the cut edges melted due to heat, resulting in an unsightly finish. Additionally, they handle other materials that laser cutting struggles with, such as thin sheet films and styrene boards. They were searching for a cutting plotter capable of handling these materials.
CFX does not burn the cross section like laser cut, and a satisfactory finish is obtained.Since it has a dragonfly reading function, there is no slight positional deviation when cutting.Therefore, it is also useful for cutting small printed matters such as seals, stickers, and product mounting paper. The range of in-house manufacturing has expanded and it has become possible to meet various requests.
The Proven Performance of the "CJV200" Entry Model, Combining High-Quality Output and Ease of Use:SAN GRAPHICA Inc.
At SAN GRAPHICA Inc., while the "CJV300" had delivered high-quality printing, the expanding range of production materials necessitated more stable high-resolution output and improved workflow efficiency. Additionally, the ability to operate within limited installation space and the ease of operation and manageability even with a small staff were key points when considering equipment upgrades.
The introduction of the "CJV200" maintains the same high image quality while further improving color reproduction and detail stability. Its compact size and simple operation allow it to fit seamlessly into any workspace, streamlining daily tasks. Furthermore, low-odor ink and a system for monitoring operational status create an environment where even small teams can operate with confidence.
The Illusory Space Created by Digital Prints at Okinawa Kingyo Museum: Linoarqx Co., Ltd.
While strongly drawn to the potential of digital print wallpaper, he lacked both print knowledge and equipment. Existing design wallpapers either didn't match his vision or were prohibitively expensive, presenting challenges in finding options to achieve the desired expression.
The quick-drying properties of the UV ink for the "UCJV300-160" enhance on-site responsiveness. Combined with the "Artista," it enables wallpaper installation tailored to customer budgets. In addition to wallpaper, he built a production environment with enhanced expressive capabilities by utilizing multi-layer printing and gloss effects.
