New Original KONICA 1024i MAE 13PL Printhead

详情

The new KM***4i is piezo on-demand printhead for industrial use with independent drive system of each nozzle channel, while the existing KM***4 series use *-cycle drive system. The independent drive system enables the KM***4i to realize approximately triple the speed of the existing models.

The higher drive speed has significantly upgraded the new printhead's performance for industrial-use inkjet printers designed primarily for ceramic printing or label printing that demands higher productivity. The printhead structure with high ink durability and the high-performance built-in heater supports stable print quality when used with high-viscosity ink for ceramic printing. The KM***4's slim and compact body contributes to development of smaller industrial printers. The environmentally-considerate KM***4i has reduced petroleum-based resource usage and toxic chemical substance usage approximately to one-third of existing models and been certified as "Green Products."

Spain, Italy, China and South America have seen increasing demand in inkjet printing for building exterior materials and tiles, as the technology is suited for high-mix, small-lot printing. Expectations have risen for further growth of ceramic printing in those regions. Konica Minolta exhibited the KM***4i at drupa ***2, drawing widespread attention. With the addition of the KM***4i, Konica Minolta enhances its product lineup and continues to meet various needs of customers for higher productivity and efficiency.
