The Mimaki CJV330-160 solvent printer/ cutter has been hailed as a
game-changer by Art & Sea, despite having only been in place for just a few weeks.

As Art & Sea has grown over the years, owner Leonie Woolf has grown her initial inventory from a single Summ

a cutter to adding in-house printing last year by investing in a Roland VG3-540 printer. After the early success of its venture into print, Art & Sea recently took the decision to bolster this further and went in search of a second printer.

A conversation with Damien Martin, hardware development manager at Soyang Hardware, revealed that the CJV330-160 was a good fit for the company’s evolving requirements.

Ms Woolf said: “The 60% speed increase with matched quality to the
VG3 was just what we needed.

“At the same time, we were gaining a wider printing width with the 1,610mm. It seemed the perfect solution to our backlog while at the same time offering further benefits with a wider print such as vehicle wraps.”

Art & Sea took delivery of the machine in mid-July and was already printing within just a few days of it being installed. Despite the printer having only been running a matter of weeks, Ms Woolf said there has been a marked improvement in production.

Ms Woolf added: “It’s been a game changer. It’s already saving us time and we’ve been super impressed with its speed and colour quality. It was definitely the right decision for us.” Art & Sea provides everything from vehicle graphics, wraps and rally car livery to signage and shop front graphics – all from two dedicated office units.
