Abstract:
A method and an inkjet printing device for single pass printing on an ink-receiver having a surface includes a plurality of sets of nozzles for jetting N inks on the surface, wherein N is larger than or equal to one, the N inks including a first ink, and wherein the plurality of sets of nozzles includes a first and a second set of nozzles for jetting the first ink; the device further including a radiation curing device arranged to cure the first ink when jetted on the surface by the first set of nozzles, wherein the radiation curing device is positioned between the first set of nozzles and the second set of nozzles.
Abstract:
A radiation curable inkjet printing method for producing printed flexible foils and plastic bags wherein a web-like polymeric substrate having a maximum value for Tan δ between 40° C. and 110° C. and a surface energy Ssub is printed upon using a single pass inkjet printer with a non-aqueous radiation curable inkjet liquid having a surface tension SLiq, wherein SLiq is smaller than Ssub by at least 4 mN/m, and curing the radiation curable liquid on the substrate at a surface temperature equal or higher than the temperature of the maximum value for Tan δ and smaller than the melting point of the polymeric recording medium. A single pass inkjet printer is also disclosed.
