AccurioJet KM-1 incorporates a new UV ink, high-performance inkjet print heads and system processing technologies. Applying these proprietary technologies, AccurioJet KM-1 offers “High image quality”, “Flexibility”, “Stability” and “High productivity” with superb functions and reliability to create new business, strengthen client relationships and rationalise in production processes and business.

High Quality

– 1200x1200dpi High Image Quality
Konica Minolta’s newly-developed cutting-edge inkjet print head, newly-developed UV ink and half-tone processing, all dedicated for superb image quality of 1200dpi.

– Sharp Text Quality
Edge-processing technology provides excellent text quality with sharpness and legibility even for small font sizes.

– Natural Gloss Finish
Newly-developed UV ink cuts down on degradation of gloss or texture caused by ink depth variations which is a problem on conventional UV inks.

– Optimised Ink Volume to match Paper and Printing Objectives
Paper-compatible output profile settings and three output modes are capable to adjust image quality to match the paper type, objective, image quality and costs.

High-precision Colour-matching Technology
AccurioJet KM-1 incorporates the high-precision colour-matching technology used in the AccurioPress Series.

Wide Colour Gamut
The newly-developed UV ink covers the Japancolor ink gamut.

High Productivity & Short Turnaround

High Productivity of 3,000 sheets/hour
AccurioJet KM-1 is capable of output of 3,000 sheets/hour and 1,500 sheets/hour in the automatic duplex printing mode on maximum paper size (585x750mm) and can achieve higher per-job productivity by adding impositions in larger size paper.

– Automatic duplex printing with no drying time
New UV ink eliminates drying time. AccurioJet KM-1 is capable of automatic duplex printing not possible with conventional inks and contribute significant reduction in the overall production time.

– No need for printing plates and major reduction in printing preparation time spent on colour adjustments
AccurioJet KM-1 achieves major reductions in preparation time without using plate. As a digital printer, It enhances high productivity. In addition there is no need to perform colour adjustment in situations where multiple digital printers are in use.

– Machine Design that minimises downtime
Like an offset printer, the machine has been designed to maintain by the operator in most cases. This means reduced downtime caused by visits of service engineers, contributing to improved operating ratio.

Flexibility & Versatility

Maximum paper size of 585x750mm
Compatible with 585x750mm paper size or B2+. AccurioJet KM-1 significantly expands the range of paper usage and enables improved productivity by increasing the number of impositions.

– Compatibility with diverse paper types through the elimination of the need for pre-processing
No pre-coating is required in , AccurioJet KM-1 achieves wide range of base materials including ordinary offset printing paper, enhanced paper-compatibility with short turnaround time through eliminating warehousing and reducing production processes.

– Compatible with paper thickness of 0.06 to 0.6mm
Compatible with paper thicknesses from 0.06mm to 0.6mm such as package printing. In addition, paper thicknesses of 0.06mm to 0.45mm can be handled in the automatic duplex printing mode

– Compatible with texture paper using the UV Inkjet system
The unique merits in UV inkjet system is printing on texture paper which is difficult in conventional printing. Non-contact system cures without pre-processing. This wide-ranging compatibility enhances designability new added values.

 Variable printing compatibility unique to digital printing
The controller developed by Konica Minolta enables variable printing, enabling the provision of new printing services to contribute to business expansion by improving customer relations and winning new jobs.

Reliability

Paper-conveying technology identical to that used in Offset Printing
AccurioJet KM-1 incorporates paper-conveying technology identical to that used for offset printers to realise highly reliable and accurate paper conveyance.

– Greater registration accuracy realised by use of UV ink
The use of UV ink eliminates problems such as waviness or curling commonly occurring during processes such as thermal fixing and drying to achieve superb print quality and highly-accurate registration.

– Stable printing quality
Because UV ink does not readily dry when exposed to air, problems such as ejection misalignment caused by drying of the ink on nozzle surfaces are minimal compared to other inkjet systems.

– Image quality control by inline sensor
AccurioJet KM-1 is equipped with internal inline sensor that automatically detect and correct image flaws. The inline sensor keep image quality degradation caused by nozzle defects in the inkjet system to a minimum.
