Research and development

Every ink set has its unique physical properties. This necessitates finding the ideal machine settings for each case. A purpose-developed test rig provides very accurate simulation of a swissQprint printer.

One of its features is a "drop watcher" that we use to investigate droplet formation at the print head, which has a major influence on print quality. Only when droplet

• Velocity

• Trajectory

• Jetability

• Size

are within tolerance will they land precisely as expected on the substrate and deliver the desired print result.
