Abstract

The PRS (print to rib space) is the most critical printer mechanical parameter. Any issue affecting the PRS affects directly into the image quality (IQ).

Nowadays there is not an accessory on any platform that is able to measure the PRS on the field, following the same process as in the factory. Customers are not able to check or monitor the PRS status of their printers.

With a PRS tool integrated on the Printhead geometry, using Linear Variable Differential Transformers (LVDTs) and electronics that enable the communication with the printer, the customer can obtain the PRS map of their printers environment directly into their solutions platform. In case that an issue exists, one can offer an improved service.
