Features

Easy operation and maintenance

Screen structure allowing intuitive operation and video support

The print setting screen has been redesigned to greatly improve ease of viewing and operation. It also offers videos to show the procedures for routine maintenance work and troubleshooting. Explanations are given on the work involved in filter replacement, ink cartridge replacement, and ink beam position adjustment.

Replacement of equipment made easy

Conventional inkjet printers require connection and disconnection of individual wires when equipment needs to be replaced, causing a hassle and the risk of incorrect wiring. The UX2 uses an I/O plug that can be attached and detached with a single touch and replacement of the entire wiring connection base has eliminated the risk of incorrect wiring.

Safe-Clean Station

Prevents ink path clogging during suspension

Prevents ink path clogging during suspension

Even when not in operation, an inkjet printer with the printhead set in the Safe-Clean Station performs regular ink jetting and circulation operations to reduce the risk of clogging with ink, as long as the printer remains energized.This offers peace of mind in production operation after a long break.

Multiple cleaning modes that can be used according to the degree of soiling

There is an option of three different cleaning modes with different levels of auxiliary liquid use according to the degree of soiling as a result of the customer’s usage conditions, making the system economical and waste-free.

New Ink Guard Structure

Depending on usage conditions, such as high-frequency printing, ink mist (ink back splash)^*1 may build up in a column shape at the tip of the deflection electrode, resulting in erratic characters, chipped characters, etc., and downtime due to restoration work.

The UX2 uses the Ink Guard that traps ink mist in the printhead, enabling stable operation for up to three times longer than conventional printers^*2. It suppresses columnar buildup of ink mist, which is effective in reducing print quality problems. The Ink Guard reduces printhead cleaning frequency and increases production line productivity.

Occurrence varies greatly depending on the usage conditions of the inkjet printer. This phenomenon does not necessarily occur.
