WCM&A invests in UK’s first Mimaki UJF-7151 Plus

Print Solutions

WCM&A is well established as a leading British badge manufacturer. The company has developed a wide range of promotional products but it is its badge making manufacturing facility that has seen the biggest growth and determined the decision to invest in the UK’s first Mimaki UJF-7151 Plus.

The UJF-7151 Plus is the latest in the UJF range of UV flatbed printers. Capable of printing onto a wide variety of substrates up to 153 mm deep including wood, plastic, glass and metal, the printer uses a four pass print system with variable drop for accurate placement of ink and vibrant, photographic print quality.

Simon Adam, managing director, commented: ‘We already have two of the Mimaki UJF-3042 model printers and one of the UJF-6042 printers. The initial attraction to this machine was the print speed – double that of existing models, the new uninterrupted printing feature and the use of bottled inks rather than cartridges which we worked out had the potential to save us thousands every year on current costs, easily offsetting the higher price over the 6042 model.’

WCM&A ordered the device from CMYUK.
