The printhead is one of the core components of UV printers, which largely affects the productivity, accuracy and even price of UV printers. There are many types of UV printer printheads, and there are different types of industrial printheads under different brands.
Which UV printer printhead is better? How to choose a UV printer with printhead? Hope the following article can help you.
1.RICOH tèt

Ricoh nozzles have been widely used in UV printers since 2013, and are currently the most popular industrial nozzles in the industrial UV printer market.
| MH5420/GEN5 | MH5320/GEN6 | |
| lajè enprime | 54.1mm | 54.1mm |
| gout kantite | 1280 | 1280 |
| DPI | 600dpi | 600dpi |
| frekans jè | 30kHz | 50kHz |
| varyab | ±15 percent | ±5 percent |
| jè dwat | Mwens pase oswa egal a 1.0deg | Mwens pase oswa egal a 0.29 degre |
| verasite | ±8μ | ±5μ |
| gwosè gout | 7/14/21 pl | 5/10/15 pl |
Kèlkeswa efè a, vitès ak lavi, li gen yon pèfòmans pri trè wo.
2.Konica tèt

Konica nozzles entered the marketing earlier, and they are a very mature product on the market.
| KM1024a | KM1024i-LI | 6988H | |
| ferkans ignisyon | 40kHz | 60kHz | 38.5kHz |
| gwosè gout | 6-20pl | 6pl | 13pl |
Konica nozzles are double-row ink inlet tubes with uniform flow and pressure. Konica nozzle models mostly used on UV printers are 1024i and 512. Among them, 512 is a fully enclosed nozzle, which has advantages in waterproof and anti-aging. With the high requirements of the market for printing effects, Konica launched 1024a, which is mainly for high-speed industrial printing, including UV printing, textile printing, and ceramic inkjet printing.
3.Kyocera tèt

Kyocera printhead are the nobility of printheads. The advantages of the Kyocera nozzle are reflected in the number of drop: 2656, the maximum ignition frequency: 30KHz, and the effective printing width: 112.35mm, so the Kyocera nozzle has a great advantage in production capacity.
4.Seiko tèt

Seiko nozzles entered the market in 2009. They belong to a relatively early industrial nozzle with aluminum alloy shell and a service life of 2-3 years. Using one nozzle to produce one color, the inkjet speed is relatively fast.
5.Toshiba tèt

Toshiba is mainly a gray-scale printhead. High precision, with special nozzle protection device.In the field of UV printers, the Toshiba CE4M nozzle is currently used more.

Gid pou achte
Most of the industrial-grade printhead that are widely used in the market are produced in Japan. When you plan to purchase, you can consider the following four points:
Firstly, lavi sa a ki sèvis nan bouch la
Enprimant endistriyèl yo sèvi ak tèt enprime endistriyèl, ki jeneralman gen yon lavi ki long.
Secondly, the printing speed of the nozzle
Fason ki pi fasil la se gade kantite gout. Si kantite gout se gwo, vitès la pa pral ralanti.
Twazyèmman, efè a enprime nan bouch la
Gade gwosè gout la, pi piti valè a, pi wo rezolisyon an.
Katriyèmman, estabilite nan bouch la tèt li
Bon oswa move, fason ki pi fasil ak pi dirèk yo gade nan manifakti a ak pati nan mache!
The above are the types of printheads shared by the editor for you. If you want to know more about the infomation, please continue to pay attention to our website or contact us.
