Konica Minolta onthult nieuwe printkoppen met hogere resolutie en printsnelheid

TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Konica Minolta, Inc. heeft vandaag bekendgemaakt dat het drie nieuwe industriële printkoppen heeft ontwikkeld. De printkoppen maken gebruik van de door Konica Minolta zelf ontwikkelde MEMS-technologie. Productie op grote schaal begint in het voorjaar van 2016.

De nieuwe printkoppen leveren in vergelijking met bestaande printkoppen een hogere resolutie, meer accuratesse en verbeterde inkjeteigenschappen. Dankzij Konica Minolta’s eigen MEMS technologie blijven de printkoppen compact en compatibel met uiteenlopende inktsoorten. Konica Minolta komt met introductie van deze nieuwe producten tegemoet aan de behoefte aan sterker presterende printkoppen en draagt daarmee bij aan groei van de markt voor printers en de ontwikkeling van nieuwe inkjettoepassingen.

Konica Minolta Unveils New Inkjet Printheads with Increased Resolution and Print Speed, Along with Compatibility with Wide Range of Inks: Mass Production to Start in Spring 2016

 

TOKYO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Konica Minolta, Inc. (Konica Minolta) (TOKYO:4902) (ISIN:JP3300600008) today announced that it has developed three new industrial inkjet printheads that adopt its independently developed MEMS technologies. The mass production is planned to start in the spring of 2016.

The new inkjet printheads deliver higher resolution, higher accuracy and more enhanced jet characteristics than the existing printheads, while Konica Minolta’s independently developed MEMS technologies have realized the compact size and compatibility with a wide range of inks. With the introduction of these new products, Konica Minolta meets the market’s needs for higher performance inkjet printheads and will contribute to further growth of the printer market and development of new industrial inkjet applications.

Major Features

High-density Nozzle Array Head

Konica Minolta’s independently developed MEMS technologies have enabled 1024 nozzles to be arrayed three-dimensionally in high density. Furthermore, the company’s proprietary robust design has realized both high-resolution and high-accuracy inkjet printheads.

Improved Ink Resistance and Wide Viscosity Correspondency for Every Industrial Ink

Based on Konica Minolta’s long-fostered material technologies and highly heat-resistant design, the new printheads have improved resistance with inks, ranging from low-viscosity inks (aqueous inks) to high-viscosity inks (including UV inks and solvent inks), and are compatible with every industrial ink.

Good for Use in Commercial Printing and Label Printing with Requirements for Higher Definition, Along with Printed Electronics (PE)

As the new printheads can print with higher resolution than existing products, they have improved applicability to commercial printing and label printing which require higher definition. They can also be used for PE and other applications that need higher jetting accuracy.

Ideal to Design High-resolution and Compact Printers

As the nozzle integration has made the printheads very compact, they can help printer manufacturers design high-resolution and compact printers.
