Industrial printing equipment must remain stable while handling changing production requirements.

A Piezo UV Inkjet Printer combines high-resolution printheads, intelligent ink control, UV curing and variable-data software to provide a flexible online printing solution.

1. High-Resolution Printing

PIJ printing is suitable for applications where the clarity of text, barcodes, QR codes and graphics is important.

Depending on the configuration, longitudinal printing resolution can reach up to 600 dpi.

Transverse resolution can be adjusted between 200 dpi and 1200 dpi.

This allows manufacturers to optimize printing for different production requirements.

2. High-Speed Online Printing

Certain system configurations can achieve production speeds of up to 150 m/min.

An important characteristic of the platform is that printing multiple lines does not necessarily require a reduction in production-line speed.

Complex printing patterns can also be handled while maintaining efficient online operation within the appropriate configuration.

3. Wide Printing Area

Industrial products vary significantly in size.

PIJ technology can support both relatively narrow printing areas and very wide printing configurations.

This allows one technology platform to serve applications ranging from labels and small packaging to cartons and large building materials.

4. Variable Data Capability

Online variable-data printing allows each product to receive different information.

Examples include:

• Unique serial numbers

• QR codes

• Barcodes

• Random security codes

• Product information

• Variable graphics

This feature supports modern product traceability.

5. UV Curing

UV ink is cured using LED-UV technology.

This makes the printing system useful across a wide variety of suitable industrial materials.

6. Intelligent Ink Control

The printer uses a stabilized negative-pressure ink-path structure.

Automatic precision negative-pressure control helps maintain the correct conditions for continuous operation.

Positive-pressure nozzle cleaning is also incorporated to assist with printhead maintenance.

7. Industrial Control System

The system uses an industrial touchscreen interface and a Linux-based control environment.

Dynamic monitoring allows operators to review important system and ink-circuit information through the software interface.

Conclusion

The main advantages of Piezo UV inkjet printing are high resolution, wide-format capability, high-speed online operation and powerful variable-data functions.

For factories that need flexible industrial printing rather than only simple date coding, PIJ technology provides an adaptable solution.
