Xaar has reported that its Xaar 2001+ printhead with High Laydown (HL) Technology received promising feedback at this year’s Ceramics China.
A number of Xaar OEM partners at the show displayed printers containing the solution. More and more ceramic tile manufacturers around the world choose to adopt the printhead because it enables them to offer much more creative designs.
Visitors to Xaar’s stand in Guangzhou, China were also able to inspect eye-catching tile samples decorated using the printhead with HL Technology. Among Xaar’s OEM partners attending China Ceramics 2018 were Foshan Sanshui Yingjie Precision Machinery Co., Ltd (New King Time), Foshan Meijia Ceramic Equipment Co., Ltd and KERAjet, all of which showcased printers with Xaar 2001+ printheads.
This generated a great deal of interest for ceramic tile manufacturers – one of which, Jin Jiu Sheng Company, closed a deal with New King Time to purchase its third Xaar 2001+ based printer.
The continuing growth in popularity of the Xaar 2001+ printhead with HL Technology is due to the outstanding tile designs which tile manufacturers can produce. The powerful combination of 2000 nozzles with 720dpi resolution guarantees higher print quality. This enables exceptionally fine details, smooth gradients and strong colours, providing the manufacturers with a crucial design advantage over their competitors and ensuring their tiles stand out when on display.
Xaar’s High Laydown Technology also delivers superb special effects such as gloss, adhesive and metallic, with ink laydown of up to 170g/sqm at 25m/min line speed. Using the Xaar 2001+ GS12 C in High Laydown mode, tile manufacturers can deliver more creativity.
