Control unit: 320 x 320 x 700 mm (incl. operating terminal)
Print head: 40 x 40 x 145 mm, (L x W x H)
Print system:
Continuous inkJET system consisting of control unit and printing unit.
Ink system:
One-liter bottles for ink and solvent. Easily replaceable. Solvent consumption only 2 ml/h at 20°C thanks to solvent recovery. No compressed air connection necessary.
Ink types:
Large variety of opaque and dye-based inks for multiple materials and applications.
Working conditions:
