Toshiba TEC Inkjet Business Group is pleased to announce the commercial availability of its CF1XL large drop‐volume inkjet head, designed for challenging applications.

 

This new, versatile and productive inkjet head extends the Toshiba TEC CF1 family of heads and provides the inkjet market with a wider choice of printheads to suit different application areas. The CF1XL has a native drop size of 36 pL, and jets drop volumes up to 180 pL. It complements the CF1L head, (64‐ 90 pL) and the CF1 head (6‐42 pL), to meet growing market demands for a wider range of inkjet heads. The print speeds of CF1 family heads can be matched to the needs of specificapplications, without compromising on print quality.

All CF1 family heads are based on an efficient through‐channel fluid recirculation system, combined with side‐shooter architecture, guaranteeing excellent jetting reliability and accuracy – air bubbles, drop deflection through sedimentation, and nozzle blockages are all eliminated. CF1 family heads can jet particle sizes up to a record 2.2 microns (d90), reducing the need for highly‐refined pigment/particle processing. This capability also increases the range of pigments and other surface treatments that can be applied by inkjet e.g. 3D‐embossing and texturing materials. Toshiba TEC has shown that viscosities up to 43 centipoise can be achieved to carry greater pigment loads, increasing print opacity, colour saturation and vibrancy.
