Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd has unveiled the the AccurioJet 30000 digital UV inkjet press. The new B2+ press takes colour capabilities, production stability and media handling to new heights, providing unlimited creative applications with greater levels of productivity and efficiency.
The AccurioJet 30000 is part of Konica Minolta’s growing digital UV inkjet range and follows in the footsteps of its hugely successful AccurioJet KM-1e series, that has been installed at more than 350 sites around the world. The new press features an advanced printhead design featuring Konica Minolta’s patented Dot Freeze Technology. Its proprietary edge processing technology delivers sharp text quality, true 1200 x 1200 dpi resolution, and an exceptionally wide colour gamut to provide unlimited creative applications.
The AccurioJet 30000 is capable of producing 3,000 sheets per hour (sph) with automatic duplex printing, without ink drying delays. It prints on paper thicknesses of 0.06 to 0.6mm, on an unprecedented variety of specialty media including heavy textured stock, canvas, metallics, translucent stock, packaging board and plastics. This makes the press perfect for a diverse range of applications such as printing restaurant menus without lamination, maps, figures, and outdoor displays, as well as backlit posters, signage, packaging, tags, desk calendars, direct mail, photo albums and more.
Higher definition mode delivers improved granularity, and a new HM201 printhead optimises substrate wiring, ensuring uniformity and temperature control. Enhanced RIP performance leverages the latest CPU and memory configurations, eliminating delays with PreRIP processing. New media sensors and a spectrophotometer maintain continuous image quality with automatic in-run corrections, while bundles of inter-colour mist catchers reduce maintenance time. An upgraded inkjet manager system integrates easily with existing offset workflows, and an inline interface accommodates third-party finishing devices. The AccurioJet 30000 is largely operator serviceable and is supported by new remote support services.
