PTS invests in high-quality full color inkjet printing system to support packaging market

March 17, 2021 Off By Sebastian Reisig

To support the packaging market, PTS has invested in a high-quality full color inkjet printing system in order to have a possibility to perform material testing and analysis. Because of the wide variety of substrates in the packaging environment, such as corrugated board and cardboard, which are also frequently used in the food sector, a system with water-based inks was the first choice.

After looking at the different solutions, the HP C250 from DJM proved to be the optimal choice. The C250 print module is a full color HP-based inkjet printing system, using the HP´s latest TIJ4.0 printhead technology, similar to the large WebPress systems of the T-1100 and C500 class, and can be used flexibly on a laboratory scale. The C250 print module has a printing width of 4.25 inches (108 mm) and at a speed of up to 75 m/min at a resolution of 600 x 600 dpi.
