For textile printing applications, Durst has developed its own high-performance inks (Kappa Inks) for the piezo inkjet multipass technology.These are used for printing with absolutely environmentally friendly, water-based dispersion, reactive and acid inks on the different textile fibers by way of the QuadroZ Arrays. The characteristics of Kappa Inks are deep black, outstanding luminosity and excellent stability.
• Kappa Ink R (Reactive Ink System) for cotton and cotton mixtures with more than 60% cotton
• Kappa Ink D (Dispersion Ink System) for synthetic fibers, polyester and polyester mixtures with more than 50% polyester
• Kappa Ink A (Acid Ink System) for silk and silk mixtures
Workflow: Besides the printing machine itself, the RIP is the most important and also the most error-prone component in the printing process. For this reason, Durst – together with specialist Caldera – has developed GrandRIP+ software for digital textile printing, tailoring it to match the Kappa 180.
With Durst Advanced Remote Diagnostics (DARD), the Kappa 180 has an innovative remote maintenance and alert system which monitors all relevant parameters, including printheads, humidity, temperature, voltage, etc., in order to maintain an even production process and prevent unscheduled machine downtimes.
Being a top-quality textile printing machine, the Durst Kappa 180 has fully automatic feeding-in and guiding facilities for textiles with a maximum printing width of 195 cm and a printing blanket with an integrated washing system. The drying unit is a hot air dryer powered by gas, steam or electricity.
Durst is regarded as a pioneer in the field of photographic technology and has launched a host of innovations on the market in the course of its 80-year history. Over the past ten years Durst has played a decisive role in the adaptation of digital printing technologies in the wood, glass, ceramics and large-format printing sectors.
