A new project raises questions that can only be answered by testing: whether the ink can be jetted, whether the process holds up at speed, whether the investment pays back. We answer them with measurements, not assumptions.
Feasibility studies
Before you commit budget, we check whether an idea is technically and economically feasible: which technology fits, what risks it carries and what it takes to bring it into production.
- Requirements and current process analysis
- Comparison of technologies and suppliers
- Identification of technical risks
- Investment and timeline estimate
- Feasibility
- Risk analysis
Proofs of concept and test benches
We build test benches to validate an idea with your substrate, your ink or your process, and deliver measurable results.
- Inkjet print test benches
- Process tests with instrumentation and data acquisition
- Dropwatcher measurements and print trials
- Reports with results and recommendations
- Proof of concept
- Test bench
- Data acquisition
New inkjet applications
Inkjet does more than decorate: it also deposits materials precisely. We assess whether a fluid can be printed and develop the process to do it.
- Characterisation of new fluids (jettability)
- Functional printing and printed electronics
- Coatings and material deposition
- Digital glazes and effects
- Jettability
- Functional printing
- Material deposition
Prototypes and industrialisation
From the test bench to a machine that runs shift after shift: control, software, documentation and handover to the team that will use it.
- Control system and software design
- Functional prototypes
- Scale-up to production
- Technical documentation and training
- Prototype
- Industrialisation
Technology selection and audits
As independent engineers, we recommend the solution that fits your process, not a particular manufacturer’s.
- Control and instrumentation architecture selection
- Printhead, ink and curing selection
- Audits of installed lines and machines
- Improvement plan with measurable goals
- Independent engineering
- Audit
Support for R&D projects
We write the technical part of projects applying for public R&D funding or tax incentives, and document their results.
- Project technical report
- Work plan and deliverables
- Documentation of results
- R&D&I
- Technical report
What a project looks like
- DefineThe goal and how to measure it
What we want to achieve and the criteria to decide whether we have.
- TestOn the test bench
We test with your substrate and your process, with objective measurements.
- PrototypeA version that works
A functional prototype that proves the solution in real conditions.
- IndustrialiseAll the way to production
Scale-up, documentation and training to run shift after shift.
