Most research on the inkjet printing technology has focused on the development of inkjet head itself, and of process, not on the landing accuracy of the droplets to a target. Thus, this paper presents the modeling and experimental verification on the static landing accuracy and precision of the droplets from the magnetostrictive inkjet head. A simple model based on the angle deviation of a nozzle tip and on a distance to a substrate is considered, assuming that there is no ambient effect. The angle deviation of the nozzle tip is determined by using its digital image with the aid of a pixel calculation program, and the distance to the substrate is set to 1 mm. Three experiments have planned and preformed. The first experiment is to collect the initial data for the landing distribution of the droplets. The second experiment is to collect the repeatability data of the stage used. Then, these data are used to rederive the equation for the final landing position of the droplet. The final experiment is to verify the equation and to show the calibration results. The respective landing accuracy of the droplet after calibration on the x-axis and on y axis has improved from $338.51{\mu}m$ and $-133.63{\mu}m$ to $7.06{\mu}m$ and $13.11{\mu}m$. The respective percent improvement on the x-axis and on y axis reaches about 98 and about 90. The respective landing precision of the droplet after calibration on the x-axis and on y axis has improved from ${\pm}182.6{\mu}m$ and ${\pm}182.88{\mu}m$ to ${\pm}24.64{\mu}m$ and ${\pm}42.76{\mu}m$. The respective percent improvement on the x-axis and on y axis reaches about 87 and about 77.

The method for spraying of liquids through an electrical field has become a printing method since it can make very small droplet. For electro-hydrodynamic jet printing to become a reliable jetting tool, the jetting performance should be characterized with respect to various jetting conditions. To optimize jetting conditions, the jetting behavior should be measured. In this study, we present a visualization techniques to measure jetting behavior from electro-hydrodynamic (EHD) inkjet head. Unlike most previous method, we use the CCD camera to measure the jetting behavior. For this purpose, LED light is synchronized with jetting signal and sequential image was obtained by adjusting the delay time of the LED light. Finally, merits and demerits of using CCD camera were discussed to measure jetting image from EHD inkjet head.

For the industrial printing applications, the stability of the piezo-driven inkjet printhead is a major requirement. In this paper, we focused on the failure modes of the inkjet printhead and realized a method to detect and repair them at high speed. The printhead monitoring is performed by detecting the residual vibration of the actuating plate using the self- sensing capability of the piezoelectric material. To measure the channel acoustics and to identify the malfunctioning nozzle, we devised the bridge sensing circuitry and failure detection algorithm. The residual vibration signals can be affected by the boundary conditions of the channel acoustics, so it is possible to identify the failure causes by analyzing the monitoring signals. Therefore it is also possible to apply a proper restoring process to the defective printhead. The experimental results show that this method is effective in improving the reliability of the industrial printing.

Inkjet printing is a non-contact and direct writing associated with a computer. In the industrial field, there have been many efforts to utilize the inkjet printing as a new way of manufacturing, especially for electronic devices. For the application of inkjet printing to electronic field, one of the key factors is exact realization of designed images into printed patterns. In this work, micro patterning for conducting line has been studied using the piezoelectric print head and silver nano ink. Dimensions of printed images have been predicted in terms of print resolution and diameter of a single dot. The predicted and the measured values showed consistent results. Using the results, the design capability for industrial inkjet printing could be achieved.

고속 및 대면적 인쇄를 위한 라인 프린팅 기술은 늘어난 헤드 길이만큼 헤드 내부로 잉크를 공급하는 유로를 확보해야 하는 구조적 취약점과 제조 과정에서 발생하는 잔류응력에 의한 피드홀 변형으로 인해 노즐층이 파손되거나 잉크가 누출되는 결함이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 견고하고 신뢰할 수 있으며 라인 프린팅 방식에 보다 적합한 열전사 방식의 잉크젯 프린트 헤드 형상을 제안하고자 한다. 먼저 실험을 통해 초기 라인 프린팅 헤드의 변형량을 측정한 후 이를 등가의 하중량으로 변환하였으며 FEA 해석을 통해 하중 추정 방법의 타당성을 검증하였다. 또한 헤드 크기를 증가시키지 않으면서 변형을 최소화할 수 있도록 기둥이나 지지벽으로 단위 노즐을 보강하거나 지지빔이나 건/습식각된 브릿지를 추가하여 내부 강성을 증가시킨 헤드 구조를 설계하였으며, 피드홀 변형이 최대 90% 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 제안된 형상 중 공정 편의성과 제작비용을 고려하여 건식각된 피드홀 브릿지 형태의 헤드를 선정하였으며 실제 제작을 통해 노즐층 변형이나 잉크 누출 없이 정상 작동하는 것을 확인하였다.

To develop a piezoelectric inkjet printhead for high-resolution and high-speed printing, we studied the characteristics of an inkjet printhead by analyzing the major design parameters. An analytical model for the inkjet printhead was established, and numerical analysis of the coupled first-order differential equation for the defined state variables was performed using state equations. To design the dimension of the inkjet printhead with a driving frequency of 100 kHz, the characteristics of the flow rate and discharge pressure of the nozzle were analyzed with respect to design variables of the flow chamber, effective sound wave velocity, driving voltage, and voltage waveform. It was predicted that the change in the height of the flow chamber does not significantly affect the Helmholtz resonance frequency and discharge speed of the nozzle. From the analysis of change in flow chamber width, it is observed that as the width of the flow chamber increases, the ejection speed greatly increases and the Helmholtz resonance frequency decreases considerably, thereby substantially affecting the performance of the inkjet printhead.
