Less cleaning, more coding

We are proud to introduce Linx Spectrum 8940 together with our partner Linx Printing Technologies – an advanced inkjet printer that takes print quality to new heights!

Advantages of pigmented ink

Dyes filter light, making the ink darker. Pigments reflect light, making the ink lighter. This makes pigmented inks perfect for dark substrates such as cables, pipes, bottles, electronic chips and automotive parts, which often tend to be black or darker in color. Pigmented inks also provide extremely high color fastness, ensuring that the color is retained for a long time.

Challenges with pigmented ink

It is quite well known, especially to users of “white ink” or pigmented inkjet printers, that pigmented inks often present greater daily challenges and are not as easy to work with than regular dye-based inkjet printers. They often require more frequent servicing, daily cleaning and often result in more downtime. But why?

  • Pigment is not naturally soluble in the solvent, which means that there is often:
  • A decrease in contrast.
  • Blocked filters, pipes and nozzles.
  • Broken pumps and valves.
  • The pigment also tends to settle and clump, which results in poor printing.

The Linx Spectrum 8940 has been designed with innovative technologies

The revolutionary new Linx 8940 Spectrum pigmented ink printer has been innovatively designed with patent pending technology to ensure it carries all of the above critical features for maximum reliability when marking with white ink, resulting in longer service intervals, less cleaning and more uptime. The Linx 8940 Spectrum makes traditionally difficult hard pigmented marking easier and more reliable. The problems typically faced with pigmented inks have been addressed and fixed. It is now possible to print highly visible codes on wires, cables and extruded products with reliability and without daily maintenance.

Highlights:

  • High-contrast pigmented ink: Prints are sharp and clear in high-speed lines.
  • High Line Speeds: Up to 10 m/s to meet the requirements of demanding production environments.
  • Long Service Intervals: Up to 8000 hours or 12 months, for trouble-free operation.

Unique features:

  • PureFlow® Filtration System: Ensures cleaner nozzles and high-quality prints.
  • Autoflush Technology: Unique printhead cleaning for increased reliability.
  • Vortex® Mixing: Disperses heavy pigment and ensures consistent ink quality.
