# Introduction 介紹

This handbook is meant to tackle those “ lab-to-fab ” transition problems that often prevent efficient and fast implementation of inkjet applications in industry, for example, on the manufacturing floor. Implementation can be accelerated with proper knowledge, planning, and execution.
This Handbook of Industrial Inkjet Printing therefore provides a detailed analysis of inkjet technology, covering all key areas of the total technology chain of industrial inkjet printing. It thus gives support and guidance to technical personnel to approach the integration of inkjet technology following a “ fully engineered system approach. ” Before describing the setup of this handbook, we provide a few introductory comments:

- This handbook is written from industry for industry. Authors from more than 30 industry companies that specialize in various technology areas of industrial inkjet printing contribute their and their companies’ accumulated technical knowledge to individual book chapters.
- The handbook concentrates on technical details, avoiding simple marketing terms and messages.
- Under the term “ industrial inkjet printing, ” we comprise all inkjet printing applications used in industry such as product print, décor and textile printing, graphics, packaging, coding and marking, direct-to-shape, ceramic printing, 3D printing, advanced manufacturing, bioprinting, and so on – in other words, covering everything but home and office printing. (In parts of the inkjet community, the name “ industrial ” printing is reserved for applications like product print, décor and textile printing, and advanced manufacturing.)
- Authors of each part were encouraged to compare notes and share best practices across chapters, enhancing the integrity and value of the book.
- The reader is invited to approach the authors for further information. Connect with the author and/or the respective company at the contact details given in each chapter.

Successful implementing of industrial inkjet printing applications requires knowledge and expertise in various areas of technology, especially in mastering the important interfaces. The simplified sketch in Figure 1 is just one approach to describe those key technology areas and interfaces. Basic requirements are the adaptations of both ink-to-printhead and ink-to-substrate. The latter typically benefits from preprocessing of the substrate, while postprocesses are needed for drying, curing, or sintering. Having access to appropriate metrology technology is necessary to precisely measure those parameters that control proper performance of fluids, print quality, and reliability under heavy duty printing. Data flow has to be considered especially with high-duty, high-volume applications. With machine integration – a key function in any industrial inkjet implementation – several tasks have to be included in a system solution complying with the end user's requests on throughput, productivity, performance, and economics. To enlarge the application area and/or improve performance, it is often helpful to consider "hybrid solutions," that is, combinations of inkjet with other technologies.

In the following, we assess all these topics. Far away from giving a complete overview, we instead let experts from companies active in those areas above describe their and their companies' technical expertise and experience. Those who plan an industrial inkjet application will benefit from this handbook in identifying important tasks of the authors' specific applications, and will get an idea how to approach and structure a plan for a specific project of their own. The reader is invited to approach the authors and companies for further information or support in their planning phase (see the contact details in each individual chapter).

In this handbook, we provide Parts One to Eleven, starting with general considerations about the pros and cons of inkjet technology. Thereafter, we address all the topics in Figure 1, including inks, inkjet printheads, substrates, metrology, and data flow. Then, we focus on machine integration and pre- and postprocesses. Thereafter, we move to application and integration by way of addressing print strategies, application developments, and successful implementations and case studies.


本手冊旨在解決那些 “實驗室到工廠” 的過渡問題，這些問題通常會阻礙噴墨應用於工業中的效能和快速實施，例如在製造車間。 通過正確的知識、計劃和執行，可以加速實現這些應用。

因此，本工業噴墨印刷手冊對噴墨技術進行了詳細分析，涵蓋了工業噴墨印刷整個技術鏈的所有關鍵領域。
為此，它為技術人員提供支援和指導，按照 "完全工程化的系統方法" 進行噴墨技術的集成。
在說明本手冊的設置之前，我們提供一些介紹性評論：

- 本手冊是從行業面為行業編寫的，來自 30 多家專注於工業噴墨列印各個技術領域的行業公司，作者將他們個人和他們公司積累的技術知識貢獻到各個書籍章節中。
- 該手冊專注於技術細節，避免簡單的銷售術語和信息。
- 在"工業噴墨列印"一詞下，我們包括所有用於工業的噴墨打印應用，例如產品打印、裝飾和紡織品打印、圖形、包裝、編碼和標記、直接成型、陶瓷打印、3D 打印、先進製造、生物打印等等... 換句話說，涵蓋了除家庭和辦公室打印之外的所有內容。（在噴墨社群這個領域，“工業”印刷這個名稱是為產品印刷、裝飾和紡織品印刷以及先進製造等應用保留的。）
- 我們鼓勵每個部分的作者在各個章節之間比較註釋並分享最佳實踐，提高書的完整性和價值。
- 請讀者聯繫作者以獲得進一步的信息，聯絡細節在每一章裡，歡迎聯繫作者或與相關的公司聯繫。

成功實現工業噴墨打印應用需要在各個技術領域的知識和專業知識，特別是掌握各個重要的界面。
圖1中的簡化示意圖只是描述這些關鍵技術領域和接口的一種方法，基本要求是墨對噴頭和墨對承印物的適應性。
後者通常受益於基材的預處理，而後處理需要乾燥，固化，或燒結。
在重度打印下，必須使用適當的計量技術，精確測量這些參數，控制適當的流體性質，打印品量和可靠性。
特別是在高負荷、大容量的應用中，資料流也是必須考慮的。
機電整合—是任何工業噴墨實現中的一個關鍵功能，系統解決方案中必須包含多項任務，以滿足使用者對吞吐量、產量、性能和經濟性的要求。
為了擴大應用領域以及提高性能，考慮 "混合解決方案" 通常是比較有幫助的，即噴墨與其他技術的組合。

接下來，我們將評估所有這些主題。
我們並沒有給出一個完整的概述，相反，我們讓那些活躍在上述領域公司的專家描述他們和他們公司的技術專長和經驗。那些規劃工業噴墨應用的人將從這本手冊中受益，確認作者在具體應用中的重要程序，讓讀者得到一個想法，來為自己的專案制定和構建計劃。
歡迎讀者聯繫作者和這些公司，在計劃階段獲得更多信息或支持(請參閱每個章節中的聯繫方式)。

在本手冊中，提供了第一部分到第十一部分，從一般噴墨技術優缺點的開始。然後，我們將討論圖 1 中的所有主題，包括墨水、噴墨打印頭、基材、計量和資料流。
再來，我們專注於機電整合和預處理和後處理。之後，我們透過解決打印策略、應用程式開發以及成功實施和案例研究的方式轉而應用和整合。
