FUJIFILM Dimatix StarFire™ SG1024/MA Printhead

The StarFire™ SG1024/MA is a compact, self-contained industrial inkjet printhead built for textiles, wide-format graphics, and other demanding production applications. It packs 1024 independently addressable channels arranged in eight rows on a single nozzle plate, delivering single-color printing at resolutions up to 400 dpi — engineered for high-speed scanning and single-pass industrial systems.

Built with field-proven materials for a long service life and stable output, the SG1024/MA uses REDIJET® continuous ink recirculation to improve start-up reliability, reduce downtime, and hold consistent performance across long production runs. Its replaceable, coated-metal nozzle plate resists abrasion for durable, cost-effective maintenance, and its robust, repairable construction lowers total cost of ownership. Compatible with solvent, UV-curable, and aqueous inks, the printhead integrates easily into demanding industrial systems.

Key Performance

  • 400 dpi single-color resolution from 1024 individually addressable nozzles in eight rows on a single nozzle plate
  • VersaDrop™ binary and grayscale jetting with editable waveform control
  • Compatible with solvent, UV-curable, and aqueous inks
  • Precise registration features allow multiple heads to be arrayed into print bars for wider, higher-resolution systems

Productivity

  • REDIJET® continuous ink recirculation for stable jetting and fast, low-waste priming — especially with highly pigmented, fast-drying inks
  • Quick, reliable start-up reduces maintenance time and associated fluid costs
  • Maximized uptime for improved productivity and return on investment
  • Enables robust system design for continuous industrial operation

Durability

  • Engineered for industrial-grade reliability in harsh production environments
  • Robust, repairable construction reduces long-term cost of ownership
  • Replaceable, coated-metal nozzle plate resists abrasion and damage; removable for cleaning or replacement
  • Internal heater/thermistor provides precise control of ink viscosity
