Case Stories

Inkjet Printing Technology in Phone Case Printing

T series flatbed printers, as an integration of AMICA’s 100% proprietary inkjet printing technology, become the ideal solution to personalized, customized and on-demand phone case printing.

Features

Superior white ink printing expands capabilities and business

Printing with high-density white inks, the TDS PRO printer offers bright and vivid colors on transparent and colored media. Thanks to the white ink circulation system, the TDS Pro easily keeps the white ink properly mixed for solid covering and coloration.

High-throw printing enables uniform printing on non-planar surfaces

The TDS Pro achieves precise droplet placement on surfaces with height variations, such as toy plates with raised edges, thereby delivering consistent print quality. Its high-throw printing capability supports surface height variations of up to 0.236”(6 mm) to 0.315”(8 mm).

* High-throw print quality may be influenced by many factors. Printing beyond the suggested distance is possible, though the results can vary depending on the environment, artwork, gradients, printhead condition, material, and surface profile.

Batch printing of Toy Plates,
with a Nozzle-to-Surface Distance of up to 0.315”(8 mm)

Orange and green expand the color gamut for better color reproduction

The TDS Pro makes prints more attractive and competitive by outputting not only a new range of oranges and greens, but also bright and vibrant yellows, reds, purples, blues, while maintaining smooth gradients.

Digital varnish printing creates special tactile and visual effects

Varnish printing provides a variety of surface finishes with attractive tactile and visual effects. The overall media can be covered with a gloss/ matte finish; or glossy/ matte spot varnish can be added to some specified appealing parts. Various types of patterns are embedded in the Print Production Watermark (PPW) software for digital varnish printing. Logos can be also printed out as varnish watermarks.

Template printing means high volumes and short lead time

The TDS Pro is an ideal solution for printing multiple small-sized objects simultaneously, even with different artworks. The fixture can be placed on the flatbed table to quickly position small-sized objects.
The ColorPRINT RIP software allows to customize “template” according to the fixture and define each image. The real-time preview achieves what you see is what you print.

LCD Smart Panel

User friendly color LCD Smart Panel provides printer status information and offline printer control.

Active Negative Pressure System

An Active Negative Pressure System with digital control pressure display gauges ensures high-quality printing at higher possible firing frequency of inkjet printing with industrial piezo print heads.

Automatic Ink Supply System

Automatic Ink Supply System monitors and controls the ink levels of main and sub ink tanks with liquid level sensors. The alarm will be automatically triggered for ink shortage or overflows.

Print Head Maintenance Module

Based on an all-in-one design concept, the small and compact Print Head Maintenance Module allows automatic purging, wiping and capping for convenient unattended operation.
