How do you print at great distances from the substrate without losing quality? We tested the KM800H digital print head.
Innovation at Ardeje Printing is achieved through practical laboratory testing. We recently added Konica Minolta's KM800H print head to our test bench to validate its performance under simulated industrial production conditions.
What sets the KM800H print head apart?
The KM800H allows printing at greater distances from the substrate - up to 15mm, while maintaining exceptional drop quality.
Where other heads produce blurring or halation effects as the distance increases, the KM800H maintains sharp definition, demonstrating excellent control of the droplet trajectory.
What laboratory tests reveal
The tests carried out produced particularly convincing results, observable on a microscopic scale:
- Perfectly defined jet at long ejection distances
- Minimal dispersion, with no blurring or haloing
- Precise droplet alignment, guaranteeing faithful reproduction of the visual image.
These observations confirm the stable, controlled behaviour of the KM800H, even in complex configurations.
What are the benefits for your industrial applications?
Using the KM800H opens up new possibilities for applications where precision and mechanical flexibility are essential:
- Clean, precise results, even on raised or sensitive substrates
- Better control of the impact zone, ideal for demanding decoration or marking applications.
- Easy integration on conveyors, robotic arms, linear axes or other mobile systems.
This print head opens the way to new industrial applications, combining mechanical flexibility with print reliability.
This is yet another string to the bow of Ardeje Printing's skills, which today, even more than in the past, enables us to offer customised solutions tailored to our customers' production requirements.
