The spotlight is on the Xaar 1003 printhead at this
year’s Print China exhibition in Guandong from 9th - 13th April, as Coaso Technology
Co, Ltd (previously known as Kingstar) showcases three digital printers which
use the Xaar 1003 on booth 1-1203.
Launching at Print China is the iCUeJet 370 for
cold foiling applications. This new printer joins Coaso’s two other printers,
the iCON C60 for color printing bottle caps and Presto 370S for single pass
printing of variable data. Integrated into three printers for quite different
applications, the Xaar 1003 clearly demonstrates its versatility and is
therefore enabling Coaso to open up new business opportunities.
The Xaar 1003 printhead offers printer
manufacturers and end users several unique technologies from Xaar which deliver
the high-quality print and reliability demanded. These include XaarGuard, which
provides additional protection to the nozzle plate, thereby dramatically reducing
the frequency of maintenance; also incorporated is Tuned Actuator Manufacturing
which ensures that actuator performance in each printhead is optimized. This
delivers uniform print quality across all printheads in a print bar, and at
different greyscale levels.
Xaar’s unrivalled TF Technology ink recirculation,
ensuring ink flows past the back of the nozzle during drop ejection at the
highest flow rates in the industry, is also included within the Xaar 1003
printheads. TF Technology keeps the ink in constant circulation, preventing
sedimentation and subsequent blocking of the nozzles during jetting – and
guaranteeing that the printhead operates reliably even in the harshest
industrial environments.
Alongside this, High Laydown (HL) Technology helps
the Xaar 1003 printhead to produce dimensional effects that deliver additional
impact to a range of print applications.
“With the Xaar 1003, our printers produce excellent
results. The unique TF Technology in the printhead has enabled us to develop
different systems for a wide range of applications, ensuring high print speed
while maintaining excellent print quality,” comments said Mr. Xu Qun Bo, Deputy
General Manager of Coaso.
“Each printer incorporates the Xaar 1003 printhead
and operates with the ink supply system developed by us. The printhead’s print
quality and reliability make it the ideal choice for this range of industrial
applications and we believe it will fast become the first choice in the
market,” concludes Mr. Xu Qun Bo.
Covering over 140,000 m2 and with over 1,200
exhibitors, Print China is one of the most influential industrial printing
shows in China, displaying the latest technologies in the printing industry to
a global audience.
“Our advanced TF Technology ensures the Xaar 1003
delivers exceptional print quality, unrivalled reliability and high production
up-time,” says Gerard Winn, Senior Product Manager at Xaar. “The printhead has
been adopted in many different industrial applications globally and we are very
pleased to see Coaso choose it for their first digital projects and we welcome
visitors to booth 1-1203 to find out more.”
