Global Inkjet Systems (GIS) has unveiled the PHC–XR–2002, a next-generation printhead card designed to meet the evolving demands of the digital printing market in 2025.
With advanced support for both Xaar’s 2002 and Aquinox printheads, GIS continues to push the boundaries of innovation, offering OEMs an unparalleled platform for high-speed packaging and intricate product decoration applications.
GIS’s PHC–XR–2002 reflects the company’s dedication to technological advancement and market readiness. The card’s capability to support maximum grey levels ensures smooth gradients and vibrant colors, and high lay-down, across a wide range of printing applications.
Designed with scalability in mind, the system allows up to six PHC–XR–2002 units to connect seamlessly to a single Printhead Control Module (PHCM), enabling OEMs to easily expand or reconfigure their setups with minimal effort and downtime.
The PHC–XR–2002 is more than a hardware upgrade—it’s a solution engineered to address the cutting-edge needs of modern printing. GIS’s R&D team works closely with OEM partners to provide customized firmware, integrate advanced drive electronics, and optimize waveforms for superior print quality. This collaborative approach ensures reduced time-to-market and a reliable production environment, empowering OEMs to stay ahead in a competitive landscape.
Xaar’s 2002 series is renowned for its precision in drop placement, while the Aquinox printhead emphasizes sustainability without compromising performance. With the PHC–XR–2002, GIS maximizes the potential of these printheads through expert integration of specialized drive electronics and advanced control software. This allows OEMs to efficiently manage fluid handling, leverage eco-friendly inks, and deliver exceptional printing results.
Looking to the future, GIS is committed to broadening its portfolio by extending support to additional printhead manufacturers. This ongoing innovation reflects GIS’s commitment to staying at the forefront of digital printing technology.
“The PHC–XR–2002 represents our vision for 2025 and beyond—combining advanced technology, flexibility, and sustainability to meet the demands of an evolving market,” said Simon Edwards, Technical Director at GIS. “By collaborating with technology leaders and customers, we aim to drive progress and deliver transformative solutions for the digital printing industry.”
