PREFINAS - Printhead Refurbishment Factory In A Suitcase

对使用购买点和销售点零售的工业打印头进行再制造，在包装和标签领域是满足这些部件需求的最环保和最有效的方法，通过再制造和测试这些打印头估计每台再制造的打印减少5公斤二氧化碳。市场已经表明，全球商业打印已经受到新冠肺炎的严重影响，许多打印店完全停产。然而，包装和标签印刷的产量增长超过了正常需求。因此瓦楞纸箱包装、标签、纸箱和软包装的销量都有所增加。网上零售增加，印刷量增加，更多的一次性使用包装用于卫生。回流正在进行中。所有这些不断增长的打印市场都使用工业喷墨打印头，当它们停止运行时需要定期更换，或者重新制造、测试并恢复生产。CamScience已决定将业务重心转向工业喷墨包装和标签行业的需求。作为我们从2020年5月开始的市场调查的一部分，我们联系了包装和标签行业，并因此了解到，该行业需要一种成本效益高的再制造和测试解决方案，该解决方案紧凑(可以坐在汽车的后座上)，不占用宝贵的制造空间，重量轻，因此可以由身体不强壮的操作员(女性，身材较小的人)携带。作为这项研究的结果，CamScience开发了PREFINAS系统Prefinas-印刷头翻新工厂在行李箱中是一个集成系统，包括工业打印头清洁技术(设备、工艺和化学)和打印头测试系统，其中包括微型工业印刷、工业印刷、其打印油墨也是清洗液的适配物，从而消除了清洁和打印循环之间的打印头冲洗。Prefinas系统的设计适合于安装在汽车的行李舱或后座上，重量轻，因此可以在不需要大量力量的情况下携带和移动。它还具有成本效益，可以以这个价格购买整个工厂的行李箱，或者翻新15个打印头。

The remanufacturing of industral printheads used point of purchase and point of sale retail, and, in packaging and labelling is the most environmentally friendly and efficient method of supplying demand for these parts and an estimate of CO2 saving by remanufacturing and testing these printheads is 5 kg per remanufactured printhead.Market has shown that commercial printing globally has been severely impacted by COVID-19 with many print shops stopping production completely. However, packaging and label printing has seen an increase in production above normal demand. So corrugated packaging, labels, cartons and flexible packaging volumes have increased. Online retail has increased, increasing print volumes, more single use packaging used for hygiene. Reshoring is taking place. All these growing printing markets use industrial inkjet printheads that periodically require replacement when they stop performing, or a remanufactured, tested and returned to production.Camscience have decided to pivot the business and entirely refocus on the needs of the industrial inkjet packaging and labelling industry. As part of our market research beginning May 2020 we reached out to the packaging and labelling industry and as a result of this learnt that the industry wanted a cost effective remanufacturing and test solution that was compact (that could sit on the back seat of a car), and did not take up valuable manufacturing space, was light-weight so could be carried by operators who were not physically strong (females, smaller stature operatives).As a result of this research Camscience have developed the PREFINAS system Prefinas - Printhead Refurbishment Factory in a Suitcase is an integrated system comprising an industrial printhead cleaning technology (equipment, processes and chemistries) and a printhead testing system comprising a miniaturised industrial printing, whose printing ink is also an adaption of the cleaning fluid so that printhead flushing between cleaning and printing cycles is eliminated. The Prefinas system is designed to fit in the luggage compartment, or back seat of a car, light in weight so that it can be carried and moved without the need for substantial strength. It is also cost effective, and an entire factory in a suitcase can be purchased for the price or refurbishing 15 printheads.
