Makeup Cartridge

Make-up cartridges are critical to maintaining the fluid dynamics of inkjet printers, particularly Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) systems. They contain specially formulated solvents that help adjust the ink’s viscosity, ensuring consistent droplet formation and optimal print quality during extended operation.

As ink is exposed to air during high-speed printing, the solvents evaporate, causing the ink to thicken. Make-up fluid replenishes the lost solvent, maintaining the precise balance needed for accurate printing. Without regular replenishment using make-up cartridges, printers may experience nozzle blockages, poor adhesion, or smudged prints.

At Classic Inkjet Solution, we provide premium-grade make-up cartridges compatible with a wide range of CIJ printers, including leading brands like Videojet, Domino, Markem Imaje, Hitachi, KGJ, and Control Print. Our make-up cartridges are engineered for efficiency, extended shelf life, and minimal maintenance downtime.

Importance of Make-Up Cartridges in Continuous Inkjet Printing

Make-up cartridges play a vital role in ensuring the smooth operation of Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) printers by maintaining the fluid balance within the ink system. Proper fluid dynamics are essential to prevent nozzle clogging, maintain stable drop formation, and achieve crisp, legible printing on a variety of substrates.

Advanced Formulations for Optimal Performance

Our make-up fluids are formulated with industrial-grade solvents designed to withstand rigorous production conditions including high temperatures, humidity, and extended operating hours. These formulations help stabilize ink viscosity and surface tension, enabling reliable printing performance even on fast-moving production lines.

Wide Compatibility and OEM Standards

We supply make-up cartridges that meet or exceed OEM specifications, ensuring compatibility with original equipment while also supporting a wide range of third-party inkjet systems. This flexibility allows businesses to reduce costs without compromising on printer reliability or print quality.

Easy Handling and Environmental Safety

Our make-up cartridges feature leak-proof, environmentally safe packaging designed for hassle-free handling and installation. We also adhere to stringent quality controls to minimize volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, aligning with global environmental standards.

Range of Cartridge Sizes for Every Need

Understanding the varying scales of production, we offer make-up cartridges in multiple sizes — from compact 500ml units ideal for smaller lines to large 1L cartridges suited for high-volume manufacturing. Custom packaging solutions are also available upon request.
