Diamond Chase Digital
Product Brochure

Diamond Chase Digital has joined forces with the Swiss
based Heinrich Mantel AG company to offer the high
speed, high resolution computer-to-screen system called the
DataScreen™. Many years of quality screen manufacturing
enabled Diamond Chase to enter the digital industry with a strong pre-press approach. The DataScreen™ strengthens
the “systems approach” from the frames to the press set-up
and registration.
The DataScreen™ has many features which make it
affordable and cost effective. The 4 head piezo ink
system increases the output speed compared to single or dual
head systems. Individually controlled print heads allows for
the flexibility of multi head speed or single head precision.
Affordability of the DataScreen™ starts with the specially formulated, high performance ink system.
Coverage and opacity have been optimized while still
controlling the ink droplet size and configuration. Mileage
for one liter of ink is approximately 80 to 100 mē at 50%
coverage depending on the print mode. Optimized efficiency
and low cost consumable stream of the DataScreen™equals
extremely fast return on investment.
The bulk feed ink system utilizes a water-based, light-impervious
ink delivered through interchangeable
containers installed at the print head. Easily refilled
containers eliminate costly ink cartridges and lengthy
ink tubes. This reduces the variable costs and enhances
cost-effectiveness.
The printing unit has four piezo print heads
with a total of 768 jets used. Job specific
parameters can be optimized by imaging with either four, two or a single print head. The system
software compensates for individual jets which are
defective or misfiring. If servicing is required, the complete printing unit can be rapidly exchanged
or a single print head can simply be changed.
The ink pressure control unit ensures consistent
flow, regardless of ink levels, to all print heads by
maintaining a stable vacuum pressure. A secondary
atmospheric monitoring system within the software
alerts the operator of imperfect working conditions.
