FHES / PIJ SERIES VD + KD

One Product Series,
Two Ink Supply Configurations

Select the model based on print width, resolution and line speed first, then determine the ink supply configuration according to the ink, installation orientation and site ink-system conditions: VD uses intelligent negative-pressure ink supply; KD uses intelligent siphon ink supply.

VD and KD retain their respective model names and brochure specifications; confirm different installation orientations and new-product configurations against the corresponding brochures and site testing.

01 / INK SUPPLY

One Series, Two Ink Supply Configurations

Ink supply method is the main difference between VD and KD; check suitable orientations against each brochure version and project operating conditions.

VD / NEGATIVE PRESSURE

VD Intelligent Negative-Pressure Ink Supply

Negative pressure, ink replenishment, level and temperature status can be managed according to the configuration. The VD V1.0 brochure limits the basic configuration to downward printing; same-direction stitching with two modules requires site calibration.

KD Series product image
KD / SIPHON

KD Intelligent Siphon Ink Supply

Establish ink supply status based on ink position, level and ink-system conditions. The KD V1.3 brochure lists layouts for multiple orientations; upward or steep-angle installation requires verification of ink supply, print distance and curing.

02 / MODEL SELECTION

Select the Model First, Then Determine Ink Supply

Model names and specifications from the two brochures are listed separately; even similar numbers must be checked against the specific printhead, drop volume and brochure version.

The nominal speeds in the table are based on the native resolution and single-drop mode specified in each brochure; actual production line speed is affected by print content, ink, orientation and installation conditions. Slash-separated values for KD70 / KD70 Plus correspond to different versions.

03 / CONFIGURATION

Determine Ink Supply and Printheads from Site Conditions

Within the same series, printhead modules and ink supply configurations still require item-by-item verification.

01Define the Printing Task

Provide material samples, print content, target print width and line speed.

02Match the Ink Supply Solution

Confirm VD or KD according to ink properties, level, tube length, installation orientation and maintenance method.

03Verify Site Results

Check print distance, ink supply stability, trigger synchronization, adhesion and curing results.

The VD V1.0 basic configuration supports downward printing only; KD multi-orientation layouts and the two new VD products are subject to their respective brochures and actual testing.
