Global Inkjet Systems (GIS) is introducing a product range of ink system components to help system integrators and machine builders develop their own customised ink supply systems.
The new GIS ink control board can support up to 6 fluids/inks (multiple boards can be connected for systems with more than six inks) and can be used with printheads with different ink flow modes – no flow for end shooter printheads, low flow recirculating and controlled flow recirculating for heads with ink circulation capability.
“The need for recirculating ink systems is increasing” added CEO Nick Geddes, “and more printheads now offer this capability. Sometimes recirculation may only be needed for inks prone to sedimentation, such as white ink, but in manufacturing applications all the inks or fluids may benefit from recirculation – adding reliability to the whole printing system.”
For companies requiring additional support, GIS also offers a range of header tank designs, pressure control, filtration, degassing and refilling systems plus design consultancy and technical support.
