Epson has expanded its range of PrecisionCore printheads with two new models, I3200(8)-S1HD and S800-S1, compatible with various inks used for industrial applications. The new products will be available from April 2023.

In addition to aqueous, UV-cured, and eco-solvent inks, the new printheads are compatible with oil-based, solvent, and other types of inks for digital printing applications in production printing.

The I3200(8)-S1HD is compatible with solvents with high solubility, giving this printhead the ability to meet the requirements for handling displays and photovoltaic cells.

It prints with up to eight different colours of ink. Liquids of different types can also be jetted, enabling this printhead to adapt flexibly to industrial printing applications. It delivers 1,200 DPI high-definition image quality, suitable for high-speed single-pass and multi-pass printing.

The S800-S1 is compatible with the same inks as the I3200(8)-S1HD, but the single-chip design enables it to print where space is limited and close to substrates with a 3D surface.

New printheads expand Epson’s offerings in the PrecisionCore series and enable the company to support a broader range of industrial and other digital printing environments for applications such as marking/coding, signage, and printed electronics.

The two new products are expected to increase the implementation of inkjet printing technology in new fields, particularly in industrial printing applications.
