Konica Minolta, Inc. has announced the global rollout of the AccurioJet 30000, a new B2 HS-UV inkjet press designed to enhance productivity and print quality. The model, a successor to the AccurioJet KM-1/KM-1e series, aims to support printing companies in improving workflow efficiency and meeting evolving market demands. The release is set to occur in stages across various countries in the first half of this fiscal year.
The AccurioJet 30000 incorporates several features to streamline the printing process. It reduces Raster Image Processing (RIP) time, allowing pre-processing during idle hours to eliminate production delays. Unlike conventional water-based systems, its proprietary HS-UV ink eliminates the need for drying, supporting double-sided printing without downtime. Additionally, the press employs Dot Freeze Technology, minimizing dot distortion and color blurring, even on textured or glossy substrates.
The press also includes a Quality Inspection Unit for automated, high-precision print quality checks, reducing operator workload and inspection time. This feature, combined with remote maintenance support through Dr. KM-1, ensures consistent press uptime.
“Our mission is to improve communication and society through digital printing,” said Seiji Nakashima, Division President, Professional Print Business Headquarters. “We aim to address industry challenges like sustainability and operational efficiency, providing versatile solutions for commercial, packaging, and textile printing.”
