Domino - Computational Fluid Dynamics Modelling of Ink Droplet Breakup for Mitigating Mist Formation during inkjet printing

Domino印刷科学公司正在与精明技术合作，对喷墨打印中影响液滴形成和碎裂的因素进行建模，喷墨打印使用卷筒到卷筒制造工艺。需要计算模型来了解影响精细油墨液滴或薄雾形成的因素，这些因素可能会损害打印质量。墨滴的形成是一个复杂的过程，在打印头的非常高的频率下极难观察到。液滴形成的模型将被用于通知油墨配方，以提供提高打印可靠性的解决方案。数字印刷是一个不断发展的行业，与传统的模拟印刷相比，它可以减少油墨、能源和基材的使用量。打印可靠性的提高将使Domino能够在不断扩大的数字打印市场中成长。

Domino Printing Sciences are partnering with ASTUTE to model the factors which affect drop formation and breakup in ink jet printing which uses a roll to roll manufacturing process. Computational modelling is required to understand the factors which affect the formation of fine ink droplets or mist which can be detrimental to print quality. The formation of ink drops is a complex process and is extremely difficult to visualise at the very high frequencies of the print heads. Modelling the drop formation will be used to inform ink formulation to deliver solutions for improved printing reliability. Digital printing is a growing industry offering reductions in ink, energy and substrate usage compared to traditional analogue printing. Improving printing reliability will enable Domino to grow in the expanding digital printing market.
