Development of aqueous pigmented inkjet inks for industrial applications

With inkjet printing rapidly proving itself as a true production process within the area of industrial printing, we as inkjet ink developers need to keep up with the pace and develop new fluids for these applications. Aqueous inks for industrial inkjet printing are potentially advantageous for many different applications. However, delivering the right functionality in a formulation with the constraints imposed by inkjet printing is no easy task.

2D-crystal inks and devices: graphene is just the start!

Prof Cinzia Casiraghi, from the Graphene Centre, University of Manchester, discusses the formulation of inkjet inks containing 2D crystals and functional devices made using them. The work will be presented at the IMI Europe Inkjet Ink Development Conference in Lausanne, Switzerland on 15-16 March 2017.

Basics of piezo driven inkjet print heads: Fluid dynamics and nozzle design

Prof J. Frits Dijksman of the University of Twente explains the basic principles of fluid mechanics behind the operation of an inkjet printhead, comparing it with a musical instrument.

Think you can't push your production speeds? This speed boost equation says you can!

Production speed is an ever-present challenge in digital printing, and is often exacerbated by thermal management challenges. Bart van Liempd of Exergen explains how the use of their thermal management sensors and equation can help boost production speeds.
