The challenge

Industrial inkjet needs to deliver speed, quality and versatility at the same time

Industrial manufacturers increasingly need digital printing systems that can do more than print standard inks onto standard substrates. They need to process more demanding fluids, achieve stronger visual and functional effects, improve productivity and maintain consistent output in challenging production environments.

For OEMs and manufacturers, this creates pressure to balance throughput, image quality, reliability and application flexibility. Conventional printhead technologies can struggle when fluid viscosity, particle loading, orientation, laydown requirement or production speed increases. Xaar Nitrox is designed to remove
those compromises.

How the Xaar Aquinox solves it

Bringing industrial reliability to aqueous printing

High-speed printing

With printing at up to 48kHz, Xaar Nitrox supports demanding industrial applications where productivity and throughput are critical.

AcuChp Technology

AcuChp Technology and Tuned Actuator Manufacturing improve print uniformity across
a single printhead and from one printhead to another, supporting high-quality output.

Ultra High Viscosity Technology

Viscosities up to 100cP can be jetted, enabling increased colour gamut, high opacity, special effects and higher molecular weight materials.

High Laydown Technology

Delivers very high volumes in a single pass for coatings, structuring and applications where greater laydown is required.

TF Technology recirculation

Xaar TF Technology supports instant prime and start-up, reliability, ease of use and excellent print quality through ink recirculation.

Sure Flow self-cleaning

Sure Flow can clear and prevent nozzle blockages without removing the printhead, helping maximise uptime and productivity.

Multiple print orientations

Xaar Nitrox prints reliably in vertical or horizontal modes, or dynamically on a robot arms, giving OEMs more freedom in
system design.

XaarDOT and XaarGuard

XaarDOT provides flexible drop sizes to optimise coverage and print quality, while XaarGuard supports printhead life, uptime and nozzle protection.

Key benefits of inkjet printing with Xaar Nitrox...

(approx. 1000cP at ambient temperature) which is well beyond average jetting capabilities of 10-12cP

Frequently asked questions...

The Xaar Nitrox is used across a wide range of industrial inkjet applications, including additive manufacturing, ceramic tiles, décor, functional fluid printing, glass, graphics, labelling, laminates, packaging, product printing and PCB printing. The Xaar Nitrox has the widest application window and handles the broadest range of fluids, making it ideal for production environments where manufacturers need speed, reliability, fluid flexibility and consistent print or deposition performance.

The Xaar Nitrox can support décor and surface decoration applications such as ceramic tiles, glass, laminates, product decoration and decorative graphics. It can help manufacturers jet inks, coatings or specialist fluids onto different surfaces where design flexibility, repeatability and production performance are important.

The Xaar Nitrox can be used in labelling and packaging applications where high-speed digital printing, variable information, product decoration or specialist effects are required. It can support production flexibility across labels, packaging materials and product printing, subject to the ink, substrate, print quality and line speed requirements.

The Xaar Nitrox can support functional fluid printing where inkjet is used to deposit specialist fluids, coatings or materials rather than only graphic inks. This can be relevant in applications such as PCB printing, product functionality, advanced manufacturing and high-value industrial surface treatment.

The Xaar Nitrox can be used for additive manufacturing and PCB printing where precise digital deposition of fluids or materials is required. In these applications, performance depends on the material being jetted, drop control, substrate or build process, waveform development and the wider production system.

The Xaar Nitrox is designed to support a broad application window and a wide range of fluids, including higher viscosity formulations where compatible with the printhead and process. Xaar’s Ultra High Viscosity Technology helps manufacturers work with fluids and higher molecular weight materials that deliver stronger colours, higher opacity, functional properties, coatings or textured effects across applications such as décor, packaging, functional fluids and advanced manufacturing.
