Screen Printing - June/July 2017 - 26

are entering this sector as awareness rises and single-pass
technology advances. Some are familiar names to wide-format
print service providers; others have a background as OEMs or
systems integrators of other types of production equipment
used in these industries. Building single-pass inkjet printers
robust enough for industrial environments can cost millions of
dollars and require years of testing. Typically, single-pass lines
are designed to print the standard-size materials already used in
higher-volume manufacturing processes.
Here is a quick rundown of currently available and
recently announced digital décor printing technology.

BarBerán Jetmaster series
Founded in 1929,
Barberán is a familyowned business
that makes industrial surface finishing
machinery for the
furniture, construction, and decoration industries. The
company had a head
start in attacking the opportunity in décor printing: They
have been making single-pass UV inkjet printers for 10 years,
equipment that is reportedly used in 30 factories. Barberán
has four main divisions, including one for digital printing,
with the R&D resources needed to develop all machine
components and software.
Barberán's Jetmaster Series of single-pass printers uses
four or six colors of UV-curable inks to print 360-dpi variabledrop, grayscale images at speeds up to 180.5 feet per minute.
The optional six-color inksets are available with either light
cyan/light magenta or orange/violet.
Jetmaster printers can be built to image panels as narrow
as 1.18 inches and as wide as 74.4 inches. Standalone models
come in widths such as 33 inches, 41.3 inches, 49.6 inches,
and 66.1 inches. Options include a primer station and a finishing unit for gloss control.
Most Jetmaster printers are designed for MDF (mediumdensity fiberboard); HDF (high-density fiberboard) for flooring;
wood panels; or melamine laminates for furniture, cabinets,
and display counters. A roll-to-roll Jetmaster unit can print the
thermoplastic foils used to wrap components with contoured
edges and surfaces such as door frames and other decorative
moldings. Specialized machinery can be built to print on cork,
linoleum, or glass.

eFi CuBik
In January, EFI announced plans
to develop a single-pass line for
the décor market at its Connect
user conference. The new EFI
Cubik print line was revealed

printed décor is quite literally all around us, and the possibility of
slicing lead times and run sizes makes inkjet an appealing option for
today's manufacturers. photos courtesy of industrial inkjet (top), EFi
