VACUUM TABLES FOR DIGITAL INKJET FLATBED PRINTERS
The flatness of the printing surface is the most important component of a flatbed inkjet printer. Depending on how close the surface is to the print head, variations in flatness may lead to image distortion. The vacuum tables from Systematic Automation provide the best complement to any flatbed inkjet printer worldwide, with an industry-leading flatness of +/-.001" (.025mm).
Our vacuum tables are tailored to your exact specifications and can include partitions and various other features to aid in the digital printing process. With the assistance of our team of application engineers, we will find the best location for your desired options and build you a vacuum table that is specifically designed for your inkjet printer.
The difference a high-quality vacuum table makes to your printed image will surprise you. Just send us a drawing of your desired vacuum table, and we'll do the rest. We'll even store your vacuum tables for convenient access when you're ready.
If you're looking for the best in vacuum table design and flatness for optimal printed image quality, look no further. To achieve outstanding results every time, our application engineers will help you select the best vacuum table for your inkjet printing process.
Equipment Features
Systematic Automation super precision vacuum tables provide a flatness of +/-.001″ (.025mm) per linear foot, making it the flattest vacuum table available. Additionally, we provide an array of features and customizable options to complement the vacuum table for your inkjet flatbed printer, such as:
- Features a honeycomb core for optimum airflow and an anodized surface plate (color black optional) all in a lightweight package.
- Vacuum table design to manage thermal expansion/contraction of materials and maintain parallelism of the vacuum table top.
- Internal vacuum zones and partitions can be installed to suit your system.
- Automatic registration popup pins and optical viewing ports are just a couple of the options available to you.
- Thickness and size of the vacuum table is custom to your specification (no size is too large).
FLATNESS IS IMAGE QUALITY
On a flatbed inkjet, the print head rides a fixed height above the table — every variation in surface flatness becomes a variation in head gap, and that shows up in the image. Our tables hold ±.001″ per linear foot across the entire bed, with construction designed to manage thermal expansion and keep the tabletop parallel as materials heat and cool. Internal vacuum zones and partitions match your substrate sizes, and options like pop-up registration pins and optical viewing ports build your workflow into the table. Send us a drawing of the table you need — our engineers do the rest, and we'll even store finished tables until you're ready for them.
