How to Choose Thermal Inkjet Printer?

Thermal inkjet printers, sometimes referred to as bubble jet printers, use thermal energy or electricity to heat ink and apply it to a medium. They can provide a low-cost option for high-speed printing, and can print on a variety of surfaces. We are one of the leading manufacturers of this kind of Inkjet printer.

History

As early as 1979, Hewlett-Packard tried to design a printer​ compatible with its popular handheld calculators. Canon was also developing a "BubbleJet" printer. In 1984, HP introduced the "ThinkJet," followed by Canon debuting the BJ-80 in 1985. More research and development was put into the technology, refining the ink usage and number of nozzles that drop it. However, while efficient and cost-effective, these printers are still far from perfect, as the nozzles still wear down and get blocked.

Process

Depending on the printer, 300 to 600 tiny nozzles heat up the ink in the cartridge, expanding it in a bubble. The ink from this bubble is pushed through a nozzle onto the paper. Eventually, the bubble collapses, or pops, and the air vacuum sucks more ink into the nozzles. Each of the nozzles can apply ink simultaneously, from both black and white or color cartridges.

Benefits

Thermal inkjet printers are a low-cost option for printing and print at a fast speed with a high quality finish. They can print on a wide variety of surfaces, including regular and specialty papers, plastics, metals and cartons. Most of these printers are simple to use and require no training or practice. They do not have a warmup or cool down cycle, so they're always ready for you to use.

Warning

Make sure that the levels of ink in the cartridge don't get too low. As the nozzles heat up, the ink itself acts as a coolant, so if there's little or no ink left in the cartridge, the nozzles may become too hot and damage your printer. Alternatively, if the ink in a nozzle dries and hardens because of a depleted ink supply, it can prevent the nozzles from issuing more ink on subsequent print jobs. However, you can clean the nozzles with rubbing alcohol.

What is the working principle of die cutting machine?

图片
Die cutting machines are essential tools in the world of crafting and manufacturing. These machines are used to cut various materials such as paper, fabric, and even metal into specific shapes and designs. The working principle of a die cutting machine involves a combination of mechanical and hydraulic processes to achieve precise and efficient cutting. At its core, a die cutting machine operates by using a die, which is a specialized tool that is used to cut, shape, and form materials into specific designs. The die is typically made of metal and is created with a sharp, blade-like edge that is used to cut through the material. The die is mounted onto a flat surface, and the material to be cut is placed on top of it. The machine then applies pressure to the die, causing it to cut through the material and create the desired shape. The working principle of a die cutting machine can be broken down into several key components: 1. Die: The die is the primary cutting tool used in the machin...

What is flexible coupling?

图片
  A  flexible coupling  is a mechanical device whose main function is to connect two shafts and transmit power. Compared with traditional rigid couplings, flexible couplings are flexible and can absorb axis misalignment and vibration. They are designed to reduce shock and noise in mechanical systems while increasing overall system efficiency and longevity. There are many types of flexible couplings, including flexible disc couplings, elastic sleeve couplings, universal joint couplings, etc. These different types of couplings are suitable for a variety of applications, such as high-torque transmission, high-speed operation, and high-precision alignment. The advantage of choosing a flexible coupling is that it can adapt to axis misalignment and reduce vibration and noise during equipment operation. This helps protect other components of the mechanical system and prolongs its service life. In addition, flexible couplings can simplify installation and maintenance and increase...
