Negative pressure management
Manage ink supply negative-pressure status using target values and detection feedback.
FHES / INK SUPPLY PCS
Make Negative-Pressure Ink Supply
an Integrated Control Unit
Use MCU digital control to manage negative pressure, temperature, ink supply and FWS fault alerts centrally; confirm accuracy indicators against the specific model and actual-machine testing.
The image shows the PCS MCU control board. Validate specifications, function coverage and delivery configuration against the model, ink and physical system.

2 LevelsSupply-side recirculation in the ink tank and cartridge
01 / INTEGRATED CONTROL
Coordinated Control, Monitoring, Temperature Management and Diagnostics
PCS brings ink supply, negative pressure and temperature control into unified digital management, reducing the integration complexity of separate controls.
Temperature control and circulation
Multi-stage temperature control works with ink tank agitation and secondary-cartridge recirculation to reduce supply-side sedimentation risk.
FWS fault alerts
Convert monitored exceptions into codes and inspection guidance to help maintenance personnel locate problems.
02 / PERFORMANCE TARGETS
Explain Detection Accuracy and Operating Accuracy Separately
The brochure provides two target performance indicators; measurement points, statistical windows and acceptance methods still need to be defined in the specific model's technical specifications.
Target Detection Accuracy±0.01 kPa
Feedback target for the pressure-change detection chain.
Target Operating Control Accuracy±0.02 kPa
The objective is to keep negative-pressure deviation within this range during operation.
These are development targets rather than accepted performance. Verify ink, temperature, measurement points, stabilization time and sampling through physical tests.
03 / INK PATH + MACHINE
Centralized Management of Supply-Side Recirculation and Machine Functions
PCS covers management of main-tank ink level, dual-printhead-module ink supply, overflow prevention, positive-pressure cleaning and enclosure heat dissipation.
Supply Side
- Primary-tank agitation and secondary-cartridge recirculation/renewal
- Ink level, replenishment, negative-pressure and temperature status management
- Dual-printhead-module ink supply and overflow protection
Maintenance side
- FWS fault codes, inspection guidance and recovery verification
- Positive-pressure cleaning and enclosure heat-dissipation status management
- Check network access, licensing, compatibility and rollback plans for firmware updates.
PCS recirculation acts on the supply side of the ink tank and cartridge; it is not equivalent to CCS internal printhead recirculation. Monitoring points, interlock actions and alarm codes depend on the delivered configuration.
04 / SOFTWARE COORDINATION
InkLink Makes PCS Status More Visible
The supporting software can show settings, actual feedback, alarms and operating logs together, and provide maintenance entry points according to permissions.
INKLINK / PCSStatus summary and maintenance portal
The software interface in the brochure is illustrative; displayed items, operating permissions, firmware version and available functions vary with the PCS delivery configuration.
