Given the rapid evolution in the world of digital industrial printing, where ink, printhead and printer manufacturers improve their competitiveness in terms of versatility and cost, it becomes relevant to enhance their know-how in several fields. The quality and the performance of an ink jet printer are not only related to the head assembly, but also to the interactions between the ink behavior in the head and the waveform signal applied to optimize the droplet and between the spreading and drying of this ink on the media. In this context, integrators play a major role between printhead manufacturers, ink providers and end-users, by studying in first place, the feasibility of the customers' needs, then by helping them to design and industrialize their system. In this article, we will focus on the development of an ink jet integration solution, based on printhead modules, electronic boards and hydraulic parts to generate controlled droplets. Experimental visualizations of the dynamic behavior of the droplet cures under UV drying system are investigated. Thanks to these investigations and developments, an industrial equipment and application are presented.
