Why Inkjet for Industrial Applications?

Mass customisation
- On-demand capability is suitable for short runs with variable data
- Seasonal, personalised, and one-off effects
- Traceability and security features (barcodes, QR codes)
- Lends itself to a variety of applications

Non-contact printing
- Flexibility to print on a variety of surfaces: smooth, rough, and 3D media
- Allows controlled ink drop placement and build-up of ink layers to create texture or 3D objects
- Removes the requirement for blankets, plates, screens, etc.

Variety of printheads
- A variety of printheads exist in the market (including inkjet and valve-jet)
- Provides flexibility for different applications and press system integration (flatbed, roll-roll, etc.)
- Provides flexibility for different ink systems/chemistries

Multiple chemistries
- Inks & coatings
- UV & e-beam
- Water-based
- Solvent-based
- Latex
- Conductive & dielectric
- Many others!
- Different chemistries to suit different applications

Colour & image quality
- Vibrant colours and imagery can be obtained
- Extensive colour gamut
- Easy to produce brand colours
- High-precision ink placement providing high resolution images and sharp text
- Capability of printing on a wide range of substrate materials

Timely workflow
- Low set-up time (no preparation of blankets, screens, etc. needed)
- High speed printing, particularly for mass customisation
- Low changeover times (no-contact means reduced cleaning compared to other technologies)

Reduced Waste
- No blankets, plates, screens etc. required
Ink is placed only in areas where needed - Reduced media/substrate waste from faster start-up
- Less solvents/cleaning products used compared to other printing/coating technologies

Cost savings
- Timely workflow for low volume print or coating applications
- Reduced waste of printing consumables (blankets, plates, etc.), substrates, and cleaning chemicals
- More compact than alternative printing/coatings methods thus requiring less floor space
- Reduced printed media storage
It’s not just about CMYK; there are so many other decorative and functional aspects to inkjet printing, and so many applications which can benefit from inkjet integration.
