Konica Minolta to Unveil New Inkjet Textile Printer “Nassenger PRO120” at ShanghaiTex 2013

Friday 17. May 2013 - Konica Minolta, Inc. (Konica Minolta) (TOKYO:4902)(ISIN:JP3300600008) will be unveiling for the first time a new inkjet textile printer, the Nassenger PRO120, at ShanghaiTex 2013, an international textile and garment machinery exhibition to be held at Shanghai, China, from June 10 through June 13.

As the third model in the Nassenger PRO series, the new, high-performance Nassenger PRO120 has the maximum printing speed of 120m2 per hour, twice as fast as that of the popular model, the Nassenger PRO60 introduced last year. Equipped with high-density, independently-driven, water-based inkjet printheads, the new model is optimized for sample manufacturing to production in small lots. Konica Minolta’s unique Automatic Printhead Maintenance System supports smooth, continuous printing for long hours or night-time operation, contributing to stable print quality and labor-saving for operators. With optional dryer and textile winder, the Nassenger PRO120 offers comprehensive inkjet printing solutions from unwinding, printing, drying through winding. With footprint of approximately 15m2, the new model is compact to install within limited space in the manufacturing floor. The nine-color ink lineup has been designed so that the textile design and its brilliant colors will take advantage of digital printing into high-quality output.
The Nassenger PRO120 will be exhibited later at FESPA 2013, an international digital printing equipment exhibition to be held at London, the U.K., from June 25 through June 29.
