The Head Doctor stands as a pinnacle of innovation in print head maintenance, offering a fully automated solution designed to maximize the lifespan and performance of your valuable print heads. This advanced machine ensures standalone operation, capable of executing entire programs with varied recovery cycles in a single setup, streamlining your workflow and minimizing downtime.
At the heart of the Head Doctor‘s capabilities is its exceptional fluid handling system. Boasting a high flow rate of 1200 ml/min and a robust 25 psi pressure, it can effectively clean multiple print heads simultaneously or tackle even the most demanding tasks, such as cleaning a single Kyocera KJ4 head with unparalleled precision. This power is delivered with unwavering reliability thanks to the incorporation of all Swiss-made pumps, renowned for their high performance and durability in critical applications.
Protecting these high-performance pumps and ensuring consistent fluid delivery is a sophisticated filtration system. Four input filters work in concert with two main filters to safeguard the machine’s internal components, guaranteeing a high and uninterrupted flow of cleaning fluid. This meticulous filtration system contributes to the longevity of the machine and the consistent effectiveness of each cleaning cycle.
Precision and control are paramount in print head recovery, and the Head Doctor excels in this domain. Automatic pressure control, monitored by a digital pressure readout, ensures optimal cleaning pressure is applied at all times, preventing damage while maximizing cleaning efficiency. Furthermore, a fluid cooling system with temperature control maintains the cleaning fluid at the ideal temperature, further enhancing the effectiveness of the recovery process and protecting sensitive print head components.
The versatility of the Head Doctor is evident in its comprehensive flushing capabilities. It is adept at performing forward, reverse, and thru-head flushing, with or without Reverse Flushing Caps, all executed automatically without the need for manual operator intervention. This automation extends to vacuum-assisted forward flushing, utilizing dedicated vacuum pumps and RF Caps to enhance cleaning power. Crucially, the forward pressure is precisely regulated, making the recovery process not only highly effective but also exceptionally safe for delicate print heads.
Monitoring the critical parameters of the cleaning process is made effortless with the Head Doctor‘s intuitive interface. A digital pressure sensor continuously monitors and controls the print head pressure, providing real-time feedback and ensuring optimal conditions. Two gauges are strategically placed to monitor vacuum levels – one in the RF cap and another in the first-stage filters – providing a complete overview of the system’s performance.
Recognizing the diverse needs of different print heads and ink types, the Head Doctor offers fine-tuned recovery cycles. These adjustable cycles can be tailored to accommodate varying degrees of clogging, specific print head designs, and ink chemistries, ensuring optimal recovery results for a wide range of applications.
Maintenance is designed to be quick and easy, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity. First-stage filters are conveniently located on the side wall, allowing for replacement in mere seconds. The inclusion of dual first-stage filters and intake tubes not only enhances fluid flow rate but also extends the period between filter changes, further reducing maintenance frequency. The vacuum pump itself is also protected by two easily accessible filters mounted on the outer wall of the machine.
Complete control of the Head Doctor is available through Android devices, providing operators with a modern and user-friendly interface. This connectivity extends to comprehensive pump diagnostics, allowing for proactive monitoring and maintenance. The self-diagnostics system is capable of detecting a range of potential issues, including pump stalling, over-pressure, temperature sensor malfunctions, and pump failure or disconnection, ensuring prompt identification and resolution of any problems.
In conclusion, the Head Doctor represents a significant advancement in print head cleaning technology. Its automated operation, high-performance components, versatile flushing capabilities, and user-friendly design combine to deliver a superior solution for maintaining and recovering print heads. By investing in the Head Doctor, you are investing in the longevity and optimal performance of your printing equipment, ensuring consistent quality and minimizing costly downtime.
