The most powerful, flexible inkjet development and pilot production printer in the world Built for Production The Print Station offers world-class analysis at production speeds and repeatability, handling the most demanding printing applications with confidence. Any Printhead Configuration Complete flexibility to choose one or more printhead models with any number of colors Single Sheet or Roll-to-Roll Print on any substrate of any size, whether it comes in a box or a roll Pretreatment Space to experiment with surface pretreatment systems to improve quality and adhesion Curing and Drying Compatible with any curing or drying system with adjustable speed, intensity, and timing Analysis Tools Built for process improvement with integrated dropwatching and print quality inspection Optical Print Alignment Accurately control sample and print placement down to the micron with automated fiducial alignment systems Modular Design for Experimenting The Print Station is built for change. Easily swap between printhead models in minutes to test the latest models, or scale up from one color to four once you’ve found success. Every setting across all aspects of the printing process is user-adjustable. The open architecture of the JetXpert Print Station means that anything can be controlled, measured, and optimized. FAQ About the JetXpert Print Station What makes the JetXpert Print Station unique? There are other inkjet printers that are flexible for experimenting. There are other inkjet printers that offer production speed and precision. But the JetXpert Print Station is the only system in the world that offers both. Plus it offers the industry-leading inkjet analysis tools, with a design that is customizable to make any application possible. How fast can it print? The speed of the linear stage systems is adjustable from 0 to 2 m/s and can be set by the operator through our software interface. Roll-to-roll systems are designed to your speed requirements, with ranges from 0 to 4 m/s. Custom versions of both are available if you have a need for speed. How wide of an image can it print? For single pass systems, the maximum width of the image is the width of your printhead bank. With our Multipass Add-On, images up to approx. 440mm wide can be printed. But the system is customizable for even larger sizes if needed. How many colors can it print? This is custom-built to your needs. Most of our customers are printing between 1 and 4 colors on the Print Station. What is the stage’s repeatability? We are proud to say that our stage repeatability testing results are <1.5µm. Using our inks and waveforms, we have also demonstrated 1.5µm print print repeatability.

Drop Tracking

Whether you are formulating an ink, optimizing a waveform, or designing a printer, monitoring the change in drop velocity vs. throw distance is crucial to understanding the final print quality. That’s where Drop Tracking comes in; just specify a range of distances to measure the drop across and it automatically will reposition the drops and capture their velocity.
