Artrix PRO improves productivity by reducing downtime and helps maintain stable operation with minimal maintenance. It is an ideal choice for companies looking to move into digital printing as well as more experienced companies wanting to improve productivity to expand their businesses.
Artrix PRO, the sticky belt model in the Artrix series, incorporates performance and usability to meet the needs of the fast fashion and home deco textile market for flexibility and sustainability. With its eight latest Ricoh Gen6 print heads, the Artrix PRO reaches typical print speed of 133 square metres per hour (600 x 600dpi – 2 pass).
Bruno Ruggiero, sales director of global sales and marketing, said, ‘We have pioneered digital pigment printing market in the past few years and helped the customers become familiar with the digital printing technologies with pigment inks. Based upon those user experience we gained from the customers and with the strong request from them, we are proud to introduce our new Artrix PRO in the market. We believe it will satisfy the needs of better productivity and improved printing quality. Our advanced media feeding system and powerful in-line dryer would be able to handle most of sophisticated fabrics as well.’
The Artrix PRO provides high throughput by adopting fast jetting frequency of 35KHz from Ricoh’s Gen6 printheads combined with 1um metal optical encoder. Ricoh’s Gen6 heads provide very precise jetting straightness so that the user could feel and experience impressive quality of print images. dgen also provides color profiling assistance with its own experienced engineers to maximize quality of customers’ creative images. Artrix PRO uses optimal waveforms for each colours to best perform its print heads’ capabilities and this results in the very low quantity of wasted inks to help seamless printing operations.
Stable operation is realised with the adoption of a degassing module system at the optimal place close to the printheads. This enables the free flow of inks so as not to block printhead nozzles and cause clogging. As this will minimise the downtime to clean the printheads, it will contribute to get higher productivity as well.
In case the customer wants to adjust jetting frequency, Artrix PRO’s smart operating softwares enable automatic bidirectional settings. This software also enables automatic bidirectional settings depending on carriage height adjustment. Auto modes for the fabric press roller, washing unit with auto water supply on/off and belt wiper are available to help easy operations. Smart temperature management of the whole belt system helps easy management of glues to stick to various types of fabrics and assures extended glue life. The Edge Position Control (EPC) sensor senses the media’s edge to move the feeding unit sideways to align it with the printing area.
The Pneumatic piston system allows the adjustment of a wide range of dancing bar pressures depending on various types of fabrics and belt stickiness. The adjustable front roller helps easy removal of fabrics from the belt. The powerful in-line dryer will ensure drying performance for the most of fabrics.
