Woking-based start-up, Only Boards has made a significant investment in a production workflow from CMYUK, giving the business the capacity to print, cut, laminate and finish in-house from day one.

The equipment line-up comprises a Mimaki JFX 200-2513 EX UV LED flatbed printer, Mimaki UCJV330-160 roll-to-roll printer/cutter, Mimaki CG-160FXII Plus cutting plotter, Neolt laminator, and a JWEI JCUT Pro1625 digital cutting table.

The company is co-owned by Pedro Guevara and silent partner Terry King. Karina Matheus is responsible for branding, communications, marketing and customer service.

Pedro Guevara, co-owner of Only Boards, said: “CMYUK has given us exactly the platform we imagined. With this investment we have a production engine room that we trust, so we can now focus on ideas and growing our business.”

The Mimaki JFX 200-2513 EX UV LED flatbed sits at the heart of the operation. Mr Guevara said he values its ability to print direct to rigid materials including stone, wood, and boards, while maintaining high-resolution output. White and clear inks also give him scope to create decorative effects and extra protection when required.

Alongside this sits the Mimaki UCJV330-160 roll-to-roll printer/cutter, which is used for vehicle wrap vinyl, stickers and custom wallpapers. Its integrated print-and-cut capability saves time and, because it uses UV ink, output is instantly dry and ready for lamination or installation without gassing-out delays.

A Mimaki CG-160FXII Plus provides additional cutting capacity for sign writing and stickers and integrates with the UCJV330-160 for contour cutting.

To protect and enhance printed output, Mr Guevara uses a Neolt laminator. Previous experience of overcomplicated lamination equipment meant he wanted something straightforward, robust and easy to use.

Mr Guevara said: “I’ve always had a good experience with Neolt. The Italians, like the Japanese, are great engineers. When I saw how the laminator works, it was so simple, I really liked it. The price was really good as well.”

Only Boards has also installed a JWEI 1625 JCUT Pro digital cutting table on CMYUK’s recommendation after a workflow dependent on fast, accurate and automated finishing was mapped out.

The machine combines routing, kiss cutting, oscillating cutting, creasing and V-cutting, with automated feeding and zoned vacuum hold-down helping to keep production consistent.

Mr Guevara is also using the JWEI alongside his in-house 3D printer to develop more engineered products. Small clips and fixings can be 3D printed, while corresponding board components are cut on the JWEI to fit precisely.
