Epson has announced developing a thin-film Piezo element with what it claims is the world's highest degree of distortion through film thickness reduction and materials development.
Epson's original Micro Piezo technology uses electrical signals to change the shape of Piezo elements, and then fires ink droplets according to the physical force generated by shape changing.
Compared to other inkjet systems, Micro Piezo technology offers superior ink ejection performance, compatibility with a wide variety of inks, and durability. As a result, this technology is already being utilized effectively in various fields such as photo lab printing, digital printing, textile printing, and color filter manufacturing.
Epson says it is currently focusing on creating a next-generation Micro Piezo print head to support expansion of the inkjet field beyond consumer printers, and to strengthen its applications for business and industry.
The company has already been successful in raising density levels by developing and utilizing innovative thin-film processing techniques. They have also designed a high-density ink reservoir through independent MEMS technology development.
As a result, Epson has managed to develop a nozzle with a density of 360 dpi, the world's highest for an Inkjet print head using Piezoelectric technology, while maintaining the advantages of conventional Micro Piezo print heads.
The company believes installation of these next-generation Micro Piezo print heads in printers and other devices will make it possible to design speedier and more compact inkjet equipment than ever before.
The mass production of next-generation Micro Piezo print heads featuring these elements as actuators will begin this month.
