Advantages

Why Xaar Versatex Printbar

The Xaar Versatex Printbar combines advanced printhead architecture, fluid management and printhead performance technologies to deliver reliable digital embellishment production with exceptional print quality, high laydown capability and reduced maintenance requirements.

  • TF Technology Ink Recirculation

    Xaar's patented TF Technology continuously circulates fluid directly past the back of each nozzle, keeping nozzles primed, reducing sedimentation and preventing air bubbles from impacting print quality — resulting in improved reliability, increased uptime and reduced maintenance in demanding production environments.

  • High Laydown Technology

    Versatex is designed to jet highly viscous fluids that traditional inkjet systems struggle to handle, enabling higher laydowns, more pronounced tactile effects, compliant braille production and premium embellishment applications from a single platform.

  • High Creativity Mode

    Produce both standard varnish and high-build embellishment effects simultaneously in a single pass using the same fluid, expanding design possibilities while reducing production complexity.

  • Consistent Print Quality

    Xaar's AcuDrop, AcuChip and XaarSMART technologies work together to optimize drop formation, maintain uniform print quality and provide real-time monitoring of printhead performance — helping minimize density variation, improve drop placement accuracy and reduce setup time.
