Xaar has launched Versatex as an ‘out-of-the-box’ print engine system, providing users who have limited inkjet experience with the ability to fast-track inkjet digital printing development and integration process.
This, according to Xaar, ‘allows a speedy, cost effective and agile way for manufacturers to explore new potential applications.’
Comprising a fully integrated data path, ink supply system and supporting a large array of printheads from the company’s ImagineX platform, Versatex is described as a versatile, user-friendly and ready-to-go system. It is available as both an evaluation kit and a larger print engine, and can be configured with multiple printheads up to 420mm in width.
Alongside Versatex, Xaar has developed the Nitrox Elite GS3 printhead. The small drop variant printhead is the newest member of the Xaar Nitrox family and delivers improved print uniformity and drop placement, creating high-definition image resolutions for smoother skin tones, gradients and colours. This makes Nitrox Elite GS3 suitable for label and graphic applications, as well as enabling fine details and features for functional fluid applications, such as PCB printing.
Graham Tweedale, chief operating officer at Xaar, said, ‘We are delighted to be demonstrating our latest developments at InPrint, the leading show for emerging printing and industrial manufacturing. By providing our customers with the latest inkjet printheads, technologies and infrastructure – available all under one roof – Xaar is helping customers address their latest application requirements and seize their inkjet opportunity.’
Both will be on show at InPrint in Munich, where Xaar is exhibiting.
