Xaar to Announce New Technology Platform at drupa

Xaar will present its range of premium inkjet printheads and products, announce a number of new developments and launch a new Thin Film silicon MEMS technology platform at drupa.

Xaar’s printheads are at the heart of a number of industrial inkjet print systems around the world delivering both production efficiencies and increased manufacturing capabilities only possible using inkjet technology. A broad base of manufacturers operating in ceramic tile manufacture, packaging and label printing, direct-to-shape decoration, graphics production and additive manufacturing rely upon Xaar’s bulk piezo technology.

At drupa Xaar will highlight the Xaar Print Bar System, the Xaar 501 printhead, the new Xaar 1003 printhead (launched March 2016) and more.

The Xaar 1003 family of printheads, which incorporates Xaar’s unrivalled TF Technology, is the latest generation of the Xaar 100x series of printheads. The Xaar Print Bar System adds single-pass inkjet capability to analog web presses. This is a versatile, easy-to-configure solution ideal for personalized, variable data, special effects and short-run printing for a range of applications, including labels and packaging,.

The Xaar 501 printhead delivers excellent reliability, high production up-time and print quality. It incorporates the PrecisionPlus architecture which optimises the printhead actuator performance to give more uniform drop formation across the print swathe. For added reliability, particularly for harsh environments, users can benefit from Xaar’s TF Technology.
