The two started a sign production company. They wanted to purchase a machine that can produce high quality work with low initial cost in a short period of time as soon as possible after starting a business.

Using a campaign, the company purchased printer, a laminating machine, and a cutting plotter while keeping costs down. The machine was delivered within two weeks after the order was placed, and after installation, they were able to get one-shot OKs from customers who are particular about color. The range of work has also expanded, and they would like to increase work related to exhibitions and events, where they are strong.

The color reproduction of solid colors was not stable, and they were considering replacing a competitor's machine. When outputting large signboards, the joints were noticeable, and the company had received complaints.

JV330-130 can print beautiful colors from strong shading to light feminine colors, such as solid red. Image quality is also perfect, and work efficiency has been improved by 1.2 times while quality has been improved.

Want to effectively promote their taxi app. Want to reduce the cost of purchasing stickers and decals to be displayed inside and outside of vehicles.

By producing ads for their taxi app with UCJV300 and car-wrapped them, the number of downloads almost doubled. It succeeded in achieving better results than any other advertising campaign. In addition, the company has taken on internal and external requests for the production of stickers with using multilayer printing and car wraps completely in-house. The weather resistance has not been a problem after three years, and the company is eager to produce interior decorations for business establishments in the future.

The COVID-19 made it imperative to develop new sales channels.

Purchased sublimation transfer printers, UV printers, laminators, cutting plotters, etc., and launched an in-house manufacturing and sales business specializing in sports-related goods to meet detailed needs.

In addition to output by 3D printer, post-processing such as polishing and coloring was time-consuming. Also, the hue were not very good and sometimes the finished product was not as desired.

The size of the output at a time was increased, greatly reducing labor and time. Output could be done at a level that did not require post-processing such as scraping off and polishing. In addition, coloring work is no longer necessary and colors can be expressed as they are in the 3D data, expanding the range of applications and making it possible to realize a variety of offers.

Want to create high value-added products with diverse soft media. They promote labor-saving and automation of work while taking the environment into consideration. They also want to lower transportation costs and prevent ink cracks and dropouts during transportation.

UV printing on roll media, which is not possible with latex, enables production of 2.5D and other high value-added products. Roll media can be left on during output for automatic production. Flexible ink is resistant to bending, etc., and will not crack or fall off.

In the design and development of new products for footwear brands, it took more than a month from the time the order was placed to the time the prototypes were received. Also, it was taking time for the design idea to take shape and be put in the hands of the designer.

With the 3DUJ-553, a 3D design model of a shoe can be printed in one to two days, significantly shortening the time required to create a prototype, which normally takes more than one month. In addition, the process from design modification to prototype production can be repeated more times in a short period, leading to better product creation.

The Mimaki's JFX200 that was previously in our operation was a really good printer. While using it, I wanted a printer with even more productivity.

The JFX600, which supports a variety of print modes, is capable of printing approx. 15 full-size board per hour with even high image quality. And like the JFX200, its ease of setting media of various shapes and the repeatablity of print position accuracy were desitive factors in the investment.

Delivery within 3 days required even for large orders. Until now, several different printers had been used to handle large orders, but there was no room for production capacity.

The investment of the Tiger600 has tripled daily production, enabling the company to accept orders for three to four time the previous volume. In addition, orders for one-of-a-kind banners can be printed immediately for quick delivery.
