Featuring maximum print speeds of up to 150m2/hr and low energy LED curing, the Fujifilm Acuity Prime can print onto various rigid and flexible media options. The machine also features five dedicated vacuum zones and jettable primer.
In terms of consumables, Fujifilm’s Uvijet HM UV LED inks are recommended with this machine and are manufactured in the UK at the world’s largest UV ink plant.
“The Fujifilm Acuity Prime is the perfect high production, high quality flatbed addition to Josero’s offering,” says Sarah Winterbottom, group sales director of Soyang/Josero. “It’s a great time for us to be strengthening our partnership, as businesses are looking for versatility, efficiency, and quality in a cost-effective solution.”

Josero has a great track record within the industry for being a trusted company with a focus on delivering high levels of customer service, and we as a company decided that they are the kind of partner we want to go to market with our Acuity Prime flatbed.”
