Features RISO TECHNOLOGIES' Inkjet heads
1. Jetting of high viscosity ink
RISO TECHNOLOGIES' inkjet heads are receiving good reputation for its performance with high viscosity ink.
Up to 43.2[mPa・s] with ink recirculation type CF1 and 18.0[mPa・s] with non-recircuation type CA4.
Wide operating window (OW)*1 and stable jetting peformance are secured.
-
*1:Operating window (OW): Range of driving voltage for stable jetting
-
※The viscosity shown above is the actual viscosity of ink at the moment of jetting.
-
※Inks shown above are inks that were actually tested. Performance varies depending on ink.

RISO TECHNOLOGIES' unique and excellent technology of mechanical process and jetting control
minimizes deviation of jetting angles and achieves accurate dot placement even with wider print gap.
3. Drop volume adjustment on each nozzle
RISO TECHNOLOGIES' inkjet heads (CF3/CF3R) are capable of adjusting jetting volume of selected nozzles with its fine tuning fucntion.
The fine tuning function helps enhance print quality.
By adding 15 levels of the fine tuning function onto original 7 gray levels printing,it is possible to achieve up to 91 levels of gradation in total on each pixel.
The fine tuning function also helps reduce density variation which is visible at the borders between the inkjet heads mounted.
Original 7 gray levels + 15 levels of fine tuning = 91 levels of gradation

4. Excellent print quality
Smooth tone and less graininess
Multiple drop jetting technology*1 up to 7 drops creates 8 levels of density gradation within a single dot. This gives a smooth tone of image from light to dark with less graininess.
-
*1:A multi-value printing method that switches dot size by controlling the number of times ink is ejected.
Printing with higher resolution
Fine art graphics can be reproduced with small drop jetting technology.
Native resolution of 600dpi enables a clear and sharp printing for as small as 2pt (0.6mm) characters.

5. Wide range of applications
RISO TECHNOLOGIES' inkjet head technologies open a door to many industrial applications, from out-door signage to labels, packages and cardboard printing.
6. Manufacturing capability ensuring stable production quality
RISO TECHNOLOGIES' on-demand piezo type industrial inkjet heads are manufactured using microfabrication technology and high-precision gluing processes in clean rooms equivalent to ISO class 6.
We established a manufacturing capability to ensure stable production and stable quality for customer's satisfaction around the world.
Component processing
We procure raw materials from outside and perofrm precsion machining process in-house. In order to ensure stable quaity and production efficiency, we employ our own know-how and technology, as well as years' of accumulated production record, to process parts.
Glueing process
To ensure the characteristics of inductrial inkjet head, we have achieved high-precision glueing technology to secure a very thin adhesive layer with a micrmeter level.
Highly managed quality control on production equipments and production record is importantto maintain excellent production quality.
Inspection process
With ISO9001 quality management system certification, we can provide products and services with reliable quality, performance, and high convenience based on our excellent proprietary technology.We ensure stable quality by inspecting and managing each process, and conducting print test and appearance inspections on every completed inkjet heads, ensuring that our products are safe and secure for customers to use.
