Mimaki takes digital print beyond shape limitations with the Kebab HS

• The new Kebab HS enables 360-degree direct printing on cylindrical objects, now extending to both sloping and tapered shapes
• Named ‘HS’ after its high speed, this entry is three times faster than the previous Kebab MkII, making it an ideal efficient and high-quality solution for handling medium volumes

Mimaki Europe, a leading provider of industrial inkjet printers, cutting plotters, and 3D printers, has announced today the launch of the brand-new Kebab HS, to be showcased at drupa 2024 in Hall 9, Stand A04. Serving as an optional system for Mimaki’s renowned UJF series of flatbed UV printers, the Kebab HS enables seamless 360-degree printing on cylindrical objects, such as bottles and tumblers. This latest solution can also print directly on tapered objects, including glasses and cups.

The Kebab HS is the latest entry into Mimaki’s Kebab Series of optional systems for the UJF Series of flatbed UV printers. With over 1,600 Kebab units already installed in EMEA and an average of 1 out of 5 UJF users choosing to add this optional system to their existing workflow, UJF flatbed printers equipped with a Kebab option can achieve three-dimensional direct-to-object printing, furthering the variety of print applications possibilities.

Building on the capabilities of the Kebab MkII, the new Kebab HS takes productivity and performance to the next level.  Three times faster than the previous model, the Kebab HS significantly increases production efficiency and takes approximately 10 minutes to print per material, ideal for users handling mid-volume orders with a single printer. It also broadens application possibilities in UV printing further, by allowing personalisation on both cylindrical and tapered items with sloping sides.
