Neodymium Magnet Printheads: Next Leap in Inkjet Speed and Resolution
A new generation of inkjet printheads using neodymium magnets instead of piezoelectric actuators is promising to dramatically increase drop ejection frequency and resolution. Developed by a consortium of Japanese and German engineering firms, the magnetostrictive printheads can fire droplets at over 200 kHz, double the speed of current top‑end piezoelectric heads, while achieving native resolutions […]
