Epson T3200-U3 printhead made its debut at the Shanghai Exhibition in 2021. Many equipment suppliers couldn't wait to exhibit flat-panel devices equipped with the T3200-U3 print head, which the guests widely praised. Many equipment suppliers who have paid attention to the T3200-U3 print head said that this is a product that is very worth looking forward to and owning, and it is a powerful weapon that can rival any industrial print head on the market. Now, the T3200-U3 print head has become the first choice of many well-known inkjet equipment suppliers in the industry.
Today, we will introduce in detail the many advantages of the T3200-U3 print head and its extraordinary performance in the market.
Epson T3200-U3 Printhead Function
The T3200-U3 printhead is the result of Epson's series of UV print heads combined with actual market applications to optimize the product line, and it is also a combination punch launched for the industrial printing market.
Adhering to the consistent advantages of Epson print heads, the Epson T3200-U3 printhead has a minimum ink drop of 3.5PL and multi-level grayscale variable ink drop printing, which can achieve high-precision image quality and be more vivid and layered. At the same time, the T3200-U3 print head has an internal heating function, which can achieve high-viscosity ink printing and higher durability. Epson has optimized and upgraded the print head ink supply component materials and adhesive design, and the ink compatibility is wider. Various functional indicators, such as accuracy and speed, have been taken to a higher level.
Specifically, the T3200-U3 print head has three major advantages:
1. Leading PrecisionCore technology
It adopts the Epson PrecisionCoreTM micro-piezoelectric printing chip, ALL MEMS (micro-electromechanical system) manufacturing process, and thin-film piezoelectric components. These enable it to achieve high-precision output while ensuring uniform ink droplet size. And variable ink droplet technology is adopted to achieve multi-grayscale printing, with extremely high reliability and flexibility.
2. One head, 4 colors
One head, 4-color channel design, 3200 nozzles, and extremely high nozzle resolution. A single print head can easily achieve excellent four-color CMYK printing, and users can easily achieve accurate calibration and high-quality print images.
3. Built-in heating device
The built-in heating device helps to increase the compatibility of UV inks and can be used for high-viscosity inks without a complex external circulation system; the internal heating system makes the ink droplet ejection more stable.
Epson T3200-U3 Printhead Test
1. Durability test: Epson Laboratory has tested the T3200-U3 printhead for 106 billion times of piezoelectric printing and found it can be used normally. After cleaning with 40KPa pressure for 1500 times, the print head has no ink leakage and can be used normally.
2. Ink compatibility test: Epson is widely open to ink partners. While assisting in ink compatibility self-testing, it also provides compatibility testing services to optimize the compatibility of partners' inks and print heads.
* The durability of the print head will also be affected by many factors, such as the ink used by the user, the use environment, printing conditions, and operation and maintenance methods. The above is only Epson laboratory data and is not used as a basis for quality assurance
T3200-U3 Printhead Application
In the actual application of equipment factories, T3200-U3 print heads have shown more flexible combination applications, lower cost, and more efficient working capabilities.
1. When Epson T3200-U3 print heads are mounted on flatbed machines and use one head with four colors, fewer print heads are used for the same production capacity, more white ink nozzles, higher effect, and high color registration accuracy between colors.
For example, when two print heads are used, one head with white ink and one head with CMYK, 100% feathering can reach 18㎡/h in 720*900dpi mode, and white ink efficiency is higher.
When three print heads use 8-color printing, 100% feathering can reach 18㎡/h in 720*900dpi mode, and the color gamut is richer.
When three print heads use one white and two CMYK, 100% feathering can reach 35㎡/h in 720*900dpi mode, and the production capacity is higher.
2. When the Epson T3200-U3 printhead is mounted on a flatbed printer and uses one head and two colors, the same number of print heads can increase the production capacity by 1.5 times, and the white ink efficiency is higher. As shown in the figure below, with 3-head and 4-head configurations, the production capacity can reach 27㎡/h when the high-precision 720-1200dpi mode is 100% feathered.
3. When 8 Epson T3200-U3 printheads are mounted on a coil machine, mesh belt machine, or plate coiling machine with one head and two colors, the production capacity can reach 160㎡/h at 720*1200dpi for the outer light and 50% feathering. The production capacity can reach 80㎡/h at 720*1800dpi for the inner light and 100% feathering.
Conclusion
In general, the T3200-U3 print head is suitable for industrial-grade mass-printing manufacturers and users who need inks of different viscosities to achieve more special application needs. At the same time, Epson will continue to apply its previous experience in difficult processes such as cylinders and high drop to the T3200 print head, providing users with further solutions for high precision and efficiency in high drop processes.
At present, Epson print heads have mature solutions for full-color, color-on-white, color-on-white on black-and-white, high-drop, cylindrical, and other printing processes. We believe that the T3200-U3 print head will bring more breakthroughs to users with these advantages!
