PostHeaderIcon Epson Piezoelectric

Phonograph record is still memorable. It became a historical heritage as a technology of the earliest applications piezoelectric phenomenon physicists finding French brothers, namely Pierre Curie and Jacques Curie, in 1880.

Over the last 20 years, Japanese companies juggle Epson piezoelectric phenomenon is not just for the development of audio technology. Epson use it for product development printing machines (printers), electronic. Piezoelectric phenomenon electricity generated from solid quartz and crystal material is pressed and withdrawn. Conversely, if voltage power is applied, these two solid material will vibrate.

Epson deployed 80 experts to develop a printer with a piezoelectric concentration since 1990. Were first produced Stylus 800 inkjet printer products in 1993. Micro Piezo is a trademark of Epson for piezoelectric applications in printing machines. On the 20th anniversary summit, Epson invite journalists from several Asian countries, including Indonesia.

For the people of Indonesia, once known familiarly Epson products once on the dot matrix printing. One of the most successful types in the Indonesian market is LX-300. LX-300 Printer rife since the 1984′s. This type is known as the most recalcitrant. See, until now there are many who use it mini. LX-300 is very economical with a ribbon, like a manual typewriter. Characteristic LX-300, when the printing process creaking noises loud enough.

In the era of the 1990s, the company’s competitors are trying to shift with the latest technology using the ink or inkjet. Ink printing machines from competitors that use a thermal method to remove to the ink. The result is a clearer print, when the printing process was, not to cause a noise like Epson products.

Epson Company Innovation does not stop developing innovations to remain competitive. In 1990, Minoru Usui appointed to lead a team of 80 engineers reliable Epson. Micro Piezo growing rapidly and provide the Epson print engine capacity more efficiently. As of this moment for Epson ME Office products and 960 WD 900WD, claimed 50 percent lower cost than laser printing machine products from other companies.

Marking the 20th anniversary of the application Micro Piezo, Usui launched two types of printing machines with Epson photo quality, the Epson Stylus Photo TX720W and Pro 4900 A2 + for professionals. Koichi Endo vision for the future became the second person after Usui who successfully made the piezoelectric phenomenon as the heart of Epson’s print engine. Endo is currently Chairman Epson to South Asia and Southeast Asia. expenses of printing ink of the most popular current method of thermal and piezoelectric. The method uses thermal print head, combined with the ink tank (cartridge). Heat generated electricity is designed to remove the ink.

With a Micro Piezo technology, according to Endo, the technology is like firing ink, in contrast to the way thermal ink dripping.

Both methods have advantages and disadvantages probably equivalent respectively. However, Micro Piezo for Endo has a vision for the future which could be more to application. One of application on an exciting future, Micro Piezo can also shoot other substances other than ink, for example, for the sake of accuracy and right treatment in the medical field.
