Cretaprint Printers
The only hybrid inkjet printers for ceramics that can work with water-based inks as well as current eco-solvent inks.
Digital glazing and digital application of effects.
A unique set of water-friendly ceramic inks and glaze.
EFl Fiery proServer for ceramics: The world's first color management software for tile decoration.
A configurable service program that includes technical assistance, preventive maintenance, ceramic design, and ink plans.
Cretaprint hybrid printers achieve high levels of performance using water-friendly inks and eco-solvent based inks with our improved ink delivery system..
High precision plate for real plug and plat that assures better printhead alignment.
Refined ink delivery system that is even more efficient and ready to work with high-productivity and high-discharge printheads, and includes total recirculation, zero sediments and total temperature control needed to achieve high performance.
The application included in the Cretaprint printer software provides interfaces with a standard Modbus Protocol to allow third party SCADAs and PLCs access to printer parameters, such as machine status, models printed on each line, tile characteristics, ink levels, printed feet, and alarms.
The multi-language and touch screen user interface makes operation much more intuitive with direct access to main functions, printing bars, and the transport system. The alarm status is always on the screen.
EFI IQ is a suite of cloud applications. Visualize key production data and the current status of your printers in near real time from IQ Dashboard.
