Since Drupa 2004, inkjet technology has received more and more attention, and its application fields are becoming more and more popular. As the preferred hard copy technology for digital inkjet, digital proofing, digital printing, digital photo printing, and home and office output systems, inkjet printing systems are It has been widely used in production and has a bright market prospect. According to the “IT Strategy” survey report, by 2008, the market demand for large-format inkjet prints will double on the basis of 2003. By 2008, an estimated 3.3 billion square feet of material will be used for inkjet printing, and the relative market value of the market is expected to increase to $5.13 billion.
Application in small format areas
1. Home and office areas
Inkjet printing equipment can be divided into small, medium and large format inkjet printers according to the size of the web. Small-format (below A3) inkjet printers, as home and business equipment, have reached $29 billion in sales worldwide in 2002, including hardware, inks, and substrates. It is estimated that by 2007, sales of small-format inkjet printers worldwide will reach $43 billion. This field is the world of HP, Canon, Epson and Lexmark. Due to the lack of core technology, large domestic electronics companies can only enter this field through cooperation.
In this field, most inkjet printers appear as the color output terminal of a personal computer. The quality and speed requirements are not very high, but they are convenient, maintenance-free and inexpensive. Competitors in this field mainly have ribbon thermal transfer and color electrophotographic systems. Ribbon thermal transfer can basically meet the above technical requirements, but the electrostatic camera system is difficult to meet the requirements in terms of system compactness and price.
2. Color digital photo printing field
In the small format area, color digital photo printing requires extremely high color quality and resolution, but requires a general imaging speed. This field has evolved with the popularity of digital cameras. This system has a small format requirement, generally less than A4.
Fine inkjet systems have achieved stable and accurate printing on 2 microliters of ink droplets on an image bearing medium. The first-level resolution is 2400dpi, which is very close to the effect of traditional color silver salt photos, and the price is much cheaper. It can also be made at any time without pollution.
Application in areas above the medium format
The main users of medium format (A3-B0) and large format (B0 and above) inkjet printers are design institutes and output service providers. The main manufacturers are Epson, HP, Kodak, Roland and so on. At the same time, large and medium format inkjet printing is in a period of in-depth development and widespread popularization. The localization of products in this area also requires the innovation consciousness and market acumen of large enterprises.
1. Inkjet technology is applied in the field of digital proofing
The effect of inkjet printers is close to the printing effect, and many publishers output proofs in this way. Since the traditional proofer is also imaged using ink, theoretically the color gamut it can express is very close to printing. However, the traditional proofing machine relies on manual ink and pressure adjustment, so the effect is very unstable. The insiders have this experience, this is the same set of film to take out the proof, the effect is usually different. The digital proofing is digital imaging, which can be very stable. Some devices can also use the color ink that approximates the ink composition, and the color gamut is also very similar to printing. It is a foregone conclusion that inkjet printers replace offset proofing and thermal transfer proofing.
2. Inkjet technology is used in the field of inkjet printing
At present, all large-format printing of indoor and outdoor displays, advertisements, posters, etc. are mainly made by three methods: screen, offset and inkjet imaging. A large number of analyses and surveys show that screen printing is most suitable for the production of more than 400 single-piece jobs, and in fact the market demand for single-piece jobs within 200 is greater.
There are more and more kinds of jobs in many varieties and small batches, and the traditional wire mesh method is greatly limited. Inkjet printing provides a fast and efficient solution for this market.
Among the specific inkjet printing methods, water-based inkjet and paper-based substrates occupy a major market share of large-format inkjet printing. However, the proportion of solvent-based inks and UV-curable inkjets is rapidly expanding. From the perspective of environmental protection and substrate adaptability, UV-curable inkjet is likely to become the mainstream of the large-format color market in the future.
3. Applications in the field of digital printing
Digital printing currently has two main systems of electrostatic photography (toner) and inkjet imaging. Applications include variable data printing, publications, personality samples, direct mail printing, commercial printing, label printing, trademark printing, and even anti-counterfeiting.
Among them, inkjet digital printing is directly printed by digital files, no need for plate making, a business can be printed after receiving orders for a few minutes, convenient, efficient, space saving and manpower. Printing process management is easier, and it can be printed according to the exact amount required for the job, avoiding waste in the traditional printing process. In addition, the inkjet head digital printing system using a combination of line arrays has an advantage in speed and can achieve an output speed of 2,000 pages per minute.
The TURBOjet wide format digital inkjet printer is one of the fastest digital inkjet printers on the market. The printing speed is up to 400 square meters per hour, the maximum format is 163cm × 366cm, and the printing precision reaches 448dpi. This printer is designed for industrial production only, on-demand ink supply, non-stop ink refilling and other properties to ensure the smoothness and continuity of the printing process.
We are looking forward to the arrival of a new era of digital printing. Due to its features of no-print, no pressure, digital files, stable system, and a wide range of substrates, inkjet technology is being displayed in the digital environment with its continuous improvement of its own technology. An extremely strong development momentum. In the near future, inkjet devices with larger format, faster speed, higher quality, support for double-sided printing, UV-jet technology with UV protection and waterproofing will penetrate the wider market. Inkjet technology will renew its vitality in the digital wave and get even greater development.
