China built ceramic industry in last 20 years of development, is a ceramic history of technology innovation, technology innovation brand pattern was broken again and again. For companies, ceramic industry can fully into the "ink jet era" remains to be the market to digest and inspection;But for consumers, ink-jet technology can let the consumer according to their wishes will be completely used in space decoration design, which means that the ceramic digital, personalization has come of age.
What is a "ink jet printing technology"?
Inkjet technology is the silk screen printing, roller printing after the third generationCeramic tilePrinting technology, is known as"Ceramic tilePrinting technology. The third revolution "ceramic inkjet technology derived from the principle of digital ink-jet printing paper. In 1997 the first blessing company invented by the United States. But the ink jet printing paper with organic ink, and ceramic ink-jet printing ceramic glaze with inorganic materials synthesis, through high temperature calcination. Inkjet printing series, in printed on the surface of the ceramic tile stereo modelling, especially all kinds of concave and convex floating on the surface of the brick and bevel texture vivid printing, can make all kinds of special shape parts and the main brick to connect more natural, the overall effect of the shop is stuck more atmosphere.
In countries such as Italy, Spain, inkjet ceramic is their mainstream products, due to the implementation of technology to China, it was not until last year.Converting from inorganic to organic, stratification, precipitation, hair color, fineness, dispersion, the velocity stability to solve technical problems, such as spray printing ceramic tile to mass production.
Why inkjet technology called "ceramic tile printing technology third revolution"?
It is called a third revolution is based on a few big characteristics of inkjet technology.
The third generation of ink-jet printing technology, changed the traditional printing contact pressure, can not contact with brick surface "volley" printing, inkjet ink used,mechanicalSynthesis of pattern design, numerical control operation at an organic whole, as long as consumers to provide image pixel is achieved, through a simple operation which can be vivid, three-dimensional to all kinds of digital photos, art screen printing in ceramic, natural material, pattern color is no longer restricted by equipment and process.
In addition, ceramic ink-jet technology can make the enterprise flexible processing different quantity and different varieties of orders, get rid of the rollercarvingAnd try to work, make the ceramic printing greatly shorten the production cycle.
The emergence of inkjet technology, in addition to bring technology and innovation of product design and color, the most revolutionary significance is to break the traditional rigid ceramic tile industry production, rigid consumption patterns - past ceramic tile manufacturers develop a product design and color have to mass production to reduce costs, and customers can only choose from manufacturer to design and color of design of existing.The emergence of inkjet technology, production of small batch, individuation become possible.Consumers can put their own images and photos printed on ceramic tile, create real consumers own ceramic tile, living space.
Inkjet technology for upgrading China ceramics to "low carbon"
Triggered by the financial crisis of the European advanced ink jet printing technology in China open, can be regarded as driving China's ceramics manufacturing upgrade to "low carbon" a good opportunity.Ceramic ink for the design, production and application of ceramic tile, etc. The whole value chain will be affected.
Inkjet printing contrast screen and roller printing, the latter because change version and flushing causes a lot of pigment, such as waste.While the former because the ink pigment, not easy to cause waste, thus maximum limit reduces the pollution;It to nissan 8000 square meters of ceramic tile, glaze using other printing methods about need 4-5 tons, and ink-jet printing only 1 and a half tons with ink, the ink efficiency more than 95%, the consumption of large glaze of ceramics industry, will reduce the consumption of resources.
Inkjet ceramic tile has become the mainstream market barriers
Inkjet ceramic products to become the market mainstream, there are two big obstacles. Is a technology, it is the price. It is understood that the new pearl brick inkjet products "IN - MAX cool color" pricing is expected than ordinary ceramic tile is one of the three points.Restrictions of technical equipment and led directly to the price on the high side.China is still dependent on imported Italian ceramic inkjet equipment, high price, the products produced are naturally expensive.Wait for digital inkjet equipment in domestic ceramic enterprises, printing technology is mature, the price of the ink jet printing ceramic tile can be expected only to come down.There is only a price drop the scope of the public can accept is likely to become the mainstream.
