XAAR has introduced a new model of the ‘revolutionary’ XAAR 1001 inkjet printhead family – the XAAR 1001 GS12. The XAAR 1001 GS12 printhead will enable ceramic tile manufacturers to achieve deep and rich colours. It can also be used at double the speed of the XAAR 1001 GS6. This new printhead features XAAR’s patented TF Technology to give unrivalled reliability with low maintenance, ensuring maximum manufacturing productivity in the harshest industrial environments. The XAAR 1001 has revolutionised the ceramics industry. It is the printhead of choice for both ceramic tile printer manufacturers and producers of ceramic tiles.
With the launch of the new printhead, tile manufacturers can now choose the best XAAR 1001 printhead for their application. The established GS6 model jets 6-42 picolitre drops which is ideal for the production of pale shades and detailed tile designs viewed at close quarters such as wall tiles. The GS6 is also the ideal printhead for packaging and single-pass display graphics applications that require fine detail. The new GS12 jets larger 12-84 picolitre drops delivering even more ink for deep colour intensity to produce bolder tile colours and effects.
