XAAR 2001 printhead wins NMI Product of the Year Award

In recognition of its productivity and industrial reliability, XAAR 2001 has been honoured with the Product of the Year Award at the 20th NMI Awards held recently in London. The award is a prestigious annual programme delivered by NMI, a UK industry association for electronic systems, microelectronics and semiconductors. This year’s awards received a record number of entries, making competition stronger than ever, including the XAAR 2001 printhead. This new printhead delivers a powerful combination of market-leading image quality, highest productivity and industrial reliability for ceramic tile decoration.

Using the XAAR 2001 tile manufacturers can print a wider range of tile patterns and designs while increasing production uptime. Ultimate image quality is achieved by jetting one colour at a resolution of up to 720 dpi with 2000 nozzles per printhead; this delivers the high ink laydown needed for bold colours and special effects. Capable to churn at the speed of up to 50m/min, ensuring highest productivity and maximum throughput, XAAR 2001 incorporates multiple technologies, delivering unrivalled industrial reliability.
