MUTOH: Japanese precision and constant development

Mutoh is one of the world's leading manufacturers of wide-format digital printers and cutting plotters, which are all designed and manufactured exclusively in Japan, from the consumables to the very last screw. With numerous sales points in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, the brand name is now synonymous with stable quality and reliability.

Japanese Mutoh values precision and high quality through craftmanship – in contrast to the accelerated production which results in poor quality typical of Chinese brands. From the engineering design of new products, through the assembly by expert colleagues, to the improvement of existing products, the entire process implements the Japanese Kaizen philosophy, the central idea of which is the pursuit of continuous improvement. The company, founded in 1952, is therefore not stuck in the past: with seventy years of experience behind them, they are constantly working to provide state-of-the-art technological solutions.

A smart investment in the future

The Mutoh HydrAton 1642 water-based UV printer, based on revolutionary new technology, is designed for sign and print professionals who think long-term. Not only is it an environmentally conscious solution which poses minimal health risk, but it's cost-effective as well. An investment that will pay off many times over thanks to its remarkably low energy consumption and its stable quality inks with long shelf-life. Additionally you can also save on primer and overcoat, since you won't need them. You can print in 1615 mm (64") width at a printing speed up to 17,2 m²/h directly onto many types of roll materials, including ones that cannot be printed by other digital printing technologies, such as heat sensitive substrates. The prints are extremely durable and have an outstanding quality: you can print up to 1200×2400dpi resolution with its dual 3200 nozzle AccuFine HD printheads. This is accompanied by numerous built-in intelligent features found only on Mutoh machines which elevate it above other wide-format printers on the market. The printer comes with the low VOC content, low odor AquaFuze waterbased UV inks and the VerteLith RIP software designed specifically for the printer, as well as the usual Full service from Signdepot.

Unique print/dry technology

Mutoh Hydraton 1642 waterbased UV printer is powered by Fujifilm’s proprietary AQUAFUZE technology, which combines the benefits of waterbased and UV-curable inks, utilizing Fujifilm’s unique dispersion technology to achieve low-VOC, low-odour and non-hazardous printing.

The printer features a combined 3-way ink formation process: the coordinated system of the platen heater directly contacting the print, the blower fans evaporating the water from the ink and the UV lamp fixing it, deliver perfectly cured, durable prints with high quality and consistency at an exceptionally low temperature. This results in lower cost by lower energy consumption as well as a broadened media compatibility.

Better than ever print quality with double AccuFine printhead

Mutoh has been integrating piezo printheads since 1999. Due to decades of experience and continuous development, their printheads are now worthy opponents of the most well-known brands.

In AccuFine printheads an increased nozzle row length contributes to higher productivity and increased density of nozzle pitch contributes to higher image quality.

Four head heights are available ranging from 1.5 to 2.5 mm, which provides wide media compatibility. Thanks to the Piezo Variable Drop Technology, the ink drop mass ranges from 3.4 picoliters up to 10.6 picoliters, ensuring perfect coverage and precise ink landing from the thinnest to the thickest materials.
