KM512 Series
The compact, high resolution printheads feature 512 Nozzles spaced at 360 Nozzles per inch.
Features
Industrial Inkjet Print Head best-suited for Versatile Applications
Shear mode, Piezo On-Demand Print Head
Piezo on-demand inkjet ejects ink drops utilizing deformation of
small ink chambers composed of piezoelectric material, by applying
electric field in accordance with signals. The principle of shear mode
piezo actuation with shared wall structure allows lower power
consumption as well as a high-density nozzle array.
512 Nozzle with 360 dpi Spacing
High resolution, 360 nozzle per inch spacing has enabled arranging
512 Nozzle on a comactly designed print head. The KM512 series consists
of type L, M and S, corresponding to unit drop volume capabilities of
42pl, 14pl and 4pl respectively. The type M and S can be driven in 4
level grey-scale mode for reproducing high quality images with smoother
tones.
Compatible with Solvent, UV, Oil ...
Due to its specially designed internal structure, the KM512 series
boasts a wide range of ink compatibility, including aggressive solvent
inks typically used for super-wide format printers. Inks which have high
viscosity at room temperature,such as UV ink, can be heated up to 55
degrees Celsius with the H type's internal heater.
Enabling Comapct Design of Head Mount System
This series is specially designed to have a “wing” structure so that
users can precisely align the print heads without difficulty. This
feature allows easy combination of page-width printhead units for the
purpose of single-pass high-speed printing. The same external design
allows interchangability of different type heads on the same mount
system.

Applications
Outdoor Signage
Outdoor signage is one of the most promising markets for industrial inkjet prinitng.
With the capability to print on various substrates at high productivity,
large format inkjet printers have been continuously replacing the
analogue screen processes.
Indoor Graphics
The large format inkjet printers are also widely utilized for
reproduction of high quality indoor graphics used in restaurants and
shopping moles.
Super fine ink droplets have enabled reproduction of photo grade images on a variety of substrates.
Label Printing
Demand for high speed, commercial label printing of variable data such as barcodes and individual addresses is ever increasing.
Inkjet technology is best suited to provide solutions to the label industry.
Material Deposition
Not limited to printing applications, the inkjet technology is
expanding its usage to other fields such as LCD color filter
manufacturing and circuit patterning.
Konica Minolta IJ provides
solutions to electronic device manufacturing industry with its renowned
precise dot placement technology.
Textile Printing
Introduction of inkjet has dramatically simplified the workflow of
analogue textile prinitng by eliminating laborous plate making
processes.
Digital inkjet textile prinitng, which can reproduce rich
colors and delicate tones with high productivity, has been attracting
attention in this industry as well.
