Product Description

The Mimaki GEN5 Head Assy is a high-performance piezoelectric inkjet printhead designed for industrial and wide-format Mimaki printers. It is a critical component responsible for accurately ejecting ink onto the media to produce high-quality prints.

This printhead features high nozzle density and multi-channel capability, allowing precise ink placement, smooth color gradation, and sharp image reproduction. The GEN5 head supports grayscale printing, enabling variable droplet sizes for better detail, reduced grain, and improved color accuracy.

Built with durable materials and advanced piezo technology, the GEN5 Head Assy delivers high reliability, long service life, and stable performance, even during high-speed or continuous production. It is commonly used in UV, solvent, and textile Mimaki printers for professional and industrial printing applications.

Product Specification

General for GEN5 Printhead

Print Head Type

On-demand piezoelectric inkjet printhead with grayscale capability (up to 8 gray levels) — supports two- and four-colour modes.

Physical & Material

Dimensions: approx 89 × 25 × 69 mm (excluding cables).
Materials: SST (stainless steel), nickel alloy, and epoxy adhesive.
Nozzle plate surface: Coated SST.

Nozzle & Printing

Number of nozzles: 4 × 320 nozzles = 1280 total.
Nozzle spacing: 0.1693 mm between nozzles.
Nozzle density: up to 600 npi (nozzles per inch).

Ink Drop & Jetting Performance

Native drop volume: ~7 picoliters (pl).
Drop volume range: ~7–35 pl with grayscale modulation.
Drop velocity: ~7 m/s.
Jetting frequency: up to ~60 kHz.

Technology & Control

Piezo type: D33 Stacked PZT (high-performance piezoelectric actuator).
Temperature control: Integrated heater and thermistor to maintain stable ink viscosity and performance.

Durability & Life

Operational life: designed for up to ~100 billion actuations per nozzle (long service life).
Operating temperature range: typically up to around 80 °C.

Compatibility

Used in many Mimaki industrial printers (flatbed, UV, solvent, etc.) such as the Mimaki Ts500-1800 Gen5 Printhead Assy and Mimaki JFX 200 Gen5 Print Head Assy, among others.
