Vortex

Patent-pending Vortex, our latest innovation made specifically for ensuring brilliant white print with brilliant print quality.

Vortex is a robust mixing tank with unique contours to collect the heavy pigment sediment in the ink. The continuous, fast mixer of the Vortex system re-disperses the pigment into the ink delivering a high-contrast, opaque print every time.

PureFlow

PureFlow is another patent-pending innovation – a specialist filter designed to purify heavy pigmented ink, without losing any colour.

PureFlow is a powerful filtration system which refines all of the ink in the Spectrum tank, a continuous filtration reduces the risk of blockages in the printhead, and delivers high-contrast, quality marking with every code.
