ResourceOne Increases Productivity with the Addition of the MCS Hayabusa
Dozens of HP T-presses of 20-, 30- and 40-inch printing width have been installed in the past decade. Many of these have been upgraded with adphos dryers for increased productivity. adphos was approached by numerous HP T-press users and asked whether an aNIR dryer could increase the drying capabilities, running speeds and ROI of their inkjet presses. Adphos developed a series of solutions and successfully installed them on all width variations.
Join the Inkjet Drying & Curing Course on Thursday, July 9th 2020.
Course Leader: James Burbidge, Technical Director Europe – adphos Digital Printing GmbH
Learn from the industry leading experts about the latest developments in press, paper and software technology for high-speed production inkjet. 5 hours of expert coverage from the source you trust. Hosted by Inkjet Insight, this year is set to showcase the latest technologies you should be using right now.
Register for Inkjet Innovation Week below:
The advanced NIR (aNIR) technology is a thermo-electrical technology developed by adphos for heating, drying and curing.
The combination of high-energy NIR power emission and warm impingement air flow results in a quasi-spontaneous evaporation of the water or solvents on the wet print, paints and functional coatings. Due to its innovative design the aNIR drying systems can dynamically be adapted to the widths, quantities
Sintering of the same Ag paste with hot air oven takes 20 min at 130 degrees C.
On the booth 730 of the Japanese printhead-manufacturer Seiko Instruments a water-based overprint varnish by ACTEGA will be ink-jetted with Seiko’s printhead RC1536-L onto a pre-printed paper-roll to demonstrate the versatility of a transparent fluid-application. The liquid will be applied in a 30 micron (wet) thick layer on a roll
As inkjet printing progresses, becoming faster and more reliable, regulatory questions like food-contact (Swiss Ordinance, etc.) and health and safety in décor applications (RAL for wallpaper, etc.) play an increasingly important role. This is where UV-curable inks often reach their limits, as their composition of reactive chemistry is often not compliant with health and safety requirements.
Water-based inks can solve this challenge, with a similar application process as UV-curable inks, but without the non-compliant materials. Water-based inks are comprised of binders, dyes
Digitalisation is a subject that has now reached most industries. In print, the digital route has started in the eighties – with the introduction of laser- and inkjet printers in the office. Forty years later, inkjet print has reached the industry and speeds of 300 m / min are no longer impossible.
aNIR by adphos is used in inkjet print since 1997. Back then, Scitex, now part of Kodak, used aNIR to dry water-based inks on thermo-sensitive paper. Since then, adphos drying-concepts are used, when water needs to be evaporated – the faster the printer, the more ink is jetted, the more effective is adphos
adphos Digital Printing GmbH, one of the world’s leading experts in inkjet drying and curing, will be present at the 6th European edition of TheIJC (The Inkjet Conference) in Düsseldorf at the Crowne Plaza Düsseldorf-Neuss, Germany on October 29-30, 2019
adphos is supporting this event with our 25 years’ experience in thermal processing. Through the investigation and delivery of thousands of drying/curing projects adphos has gained a great depth of knowledge and application expertise. Enabled by sophisticated control mechanisms, the aNIR-technology allows drying aqueous ink onto
