Spectra Nova JA 256/80 AAA Printhead (80 pl, 279 µm Pitch)

The Spectra Nova JA 256/80 AAA is a highly durable, piezoelectric drop-on-demand printhead engineered specifically for heavy-duty industrial inkjet applications. Featuring a substantial 80 pL calibrated droplet volume, this printhead is designed for production environments that demand exceptional material coverage, high fluid deposition, and reliable handling of high-viscosity or heavily pigmented fluids—such as industrial UV white inks, varnishes, and outdoor solvent-based inks.

Core Features & Advantages

• Exceptional Opacity & Coverage: The large 80 pL drop size rapidly deposits dense layers of ink, providing superior color saturation and hiding power. It remains an industry standard for solid background blocks, outdoor wide-format graphics, and white ink undercoats.
• Precise Nova-Architecture Standard: Engineered with a 279-micron nozzle pitch, it offers flawless mechanical alignment with classic high-end industrial printer carriages built on the Nova hardware framework.
• Powerful Thermal Control: Integrated high-precision heating elements allow stable operation at temperatures up to 90°C. By efficiently lowering fluid viscosity, it ensures smooth, continuous jetting without clogging.
• Heavy-Duty Operational Lifespan: The internal fluid paths are constructed using robust, anti-corrosive, and wear-resistant materials capable of enduring harsh industrial chemical inks, significantly extending the component life.
