6. Operation 6.1 Construction/Structure of the device The high-performance LEIBINGER JET2 neo is manufactured of a solid two parts stainless steel cabinet. Due to the two parts construction you will get a thermal separation between the hydraulic- and electronic section. The device consists of the following main components.
6.2 Functional principle 6.2.1 Method of working The JET2 neo works in accordance with the continuous ink jet process. In this a constant ink jet is emitted from a jet nozzle which is broken down into a series of equal size drops under the influence of mechanical oscillations.
The controller (CPU) of the printer calculates the values which are required for the generation of charging voltages of the single characters. JET2 neo Release R1.07 en...
