Squid Ink Unveils Innovative New Ink Jet Printing System
MINNEAPOLIS, MN, - Squid Ink Manufacturing, Inc., a leading manufacturer of superior quality inks and ink jet printing equipment, introduces the new Vector XII ink jet printing system. Squid Ink's Vector XII modular ink jet printing system allows manufacturers and contract packagers to print up to 12 lines of code at a cost-effective price.
Vector XII users have the option of choosing from several different printhead combinations. Two different printhead sizes are available: 1" or 1 3/4" character height. Each printhead is capable of printing at 100%, 40% or 26% character height, offering six print sizes ranging from 1/4" to 1 ¾". Users also have the flexibility to run up to six different printheads of any size at the same time. No other system has this versatility. All of these components are field installable for future upgrade to meet your application's changing requirements. And unlike any other DOD printing system in the industry, Vector XII offers up to 12 lines of print from a single controller.
The Vector XII is designed for simple day-to-day operation. Vector XM's state of the art input device provides quick and easy message programming and retrieval for up to 128 messages. Resident software accessed from the handheld input device walks users through a series of prompts to program and save each message for printing on-demand. The system can also be programmed and maintained with a PC through a standard RS-232 port. Vector Xll's easy to use design and user-friendly software makes everyone involved a smooth operator.
Patented micro-channeling technology eliminates the need for a costly array of fluid valves. Squid Ink uses its own plunger technology and distributes ink through a series of channels, keeping production and maintenance costs to a minimum, especially when compared to the costly valve technology common in most ink jet printers today.
The Vector XII is engineered inside and out for industrial strength operation. Self-diagnostic features automatically verify proper operation of the power supply, CPU boards, and ink system. Industrial strength enclosures and dust/moisture-resistant coated steel cabinetry ensure continuous operation in harsh, real world environments. Easy-to-install replacement printheads, PC boards and ink pump modules minimize downtime and eliminate costly service calls. Best of all, the Vector XII utilizes Squid Ink's patented SQ-60(TM) no-clog ink, allowing users to leave the ink in their printheads for an extended period of time without flushing or cleaning, making it the most cost-effective, low maintenance ink jet printing system in it's class.
Squid Ink specializes in the manufacture of superior quality inks and ink jet printing equipment for the packaging and marking industry. Headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, Squid Ink also has engineering, manufacturing and software development facilities in Anaheim, CA, Arlington, TX and Eden Prairie, MN.
