Inkjet printing technology off the third technological revolution in the ceramic industry

Industry sources said that inkjet printing technology has raised the global ceramics industry, the third technological revolution, resulting in the ceramic industry, a "no bricks not firing," the spectacular. Currently, the global ceramic inkjet printer soaring number of applications, the growth rate in China is particularly significant.Manufactured Stone Veneer
Some businesses have already keen sense of smell to carry out product development work, such as inkjet printers, ink jets and prepress processing software, and continue to enhance research and development capabilities, as well as to upgrade the core product, and effectively promote diversified development pattern ceramic ink-jet formation.

Niche brand to seize the Chinese market
"Is expected in 2013 China newly installed ceramic inkjet printer about 600 -800 units, end of this year, China's ceramic inkjet line operation will reach 1,300 -1,600 units." Chinese Ceramic Society Ceramic branch vice president, machinery and equipment professional committee chairman Zhang Baiqing at the Third China ceramic inkjet printing technology Forum, said, "At present, China Ceramic Industry of the hottest topics is the jet, China's ceramic inkjet printer market demand should be around in 3000 . "
National ceramics and sanitary ware product quality supervision and inspection center engineer Hu Jun analysis, according to each ceramic inkjet printer average price of 200 yuan terms, inkjet printer market this year will add 1.2 billion -16 billion yuan; according to each jet printer nozzle costing 70% this year, to add sprinklers market 840,000,000 -11.1 billion. Assumed that the current domestic online operation ceramic inkjet printer has reached 1,000 units, each take three years to replace one inkjet printer heads, which can add an annual average of about 460 million yuan replace the nozzle market. That year, the market can produce about 1.3 billion -19.5 nozzle billion.
In addition, our 2012 annual output of nearly 9 billion square meters tile, brick inkjet 30% (currently Italian, Spanish tiles in inkjet products accounted for about 30%), with tiled 10g/m2 ink usage per unit area basis, namely ceramics The use of ink is about 27,000 tons, ceramic ink by the average price 200,000 yuan / ton estimates, the domestic market for ceramic ink up to 6.05 billion yuan annually.
China's ceramic inkjet printing rather broad space for development, in order to win a larger market discourse, many overseas ceramic inkjet equipment manufacturers in China has successively established agency, office, storage, warehouse, and domestic ceramic inkjet equipment companies also not far behind, have the stability and flexibility of the device has done a lot work.Manufactured Stone Veneer
March 2013, imported ink price to 20 yuan / ton, compared with the beginning of this year, a drop of 28.6%; domestic ink dropped to 160,000 yuan / ton, compared with the beginning of this year, fell as much as 30.4%. The industry believes that a growing number of Chinese ceramics production enterprises to enter the ranks of ceramic ink-jet printing, ink is to promote the main reason for lower prices.
