XAAR announces Midas ink supply system for OEMs

New Midas Ink Supply System from XAAR is a compact, reliable ink and fluid supply system for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) looking for a fast time-to-market and therefore lower development costs. Robust and easy to integrate, it is ideal for full production as well as prototype systems. Its outstanding simplicity of integration is assured through its compact and light design, easiness to mount and install and small ink tank capacity; it also has an optional degasser and remote heater units. In addition, as the XAAR Midas has a modular design, it is suitable for a range of applications and is able to run multiple printheads out of the box as standard.

Ease of use is guaranteed by the XAAR Midas’s rapid start up time of less than 15 minutes and almost instant shutdown time of under five seconds. In addition, changing fluids takes less than 30 minutes via the software, and the system can be positioned up to 5 metres away from the printhead using a remote manifold. Ink temperature can be controlled up to 65°C and ink is recirculated within the angled tank to avoid settling. This is particularly useful for heavily pigmented inks.
