Introduced in February '07, SME rolled out its new streaky-print eliminating JetClean 100 atomizer. This rugged industrial cleaning machine cleans cartridges better than steam cleaning and does not damage printheads like ultrasonic baths do.

SME developed Atomization cleaning for the inkjet industry in 2001 and the Jetclean 100 replaces the wildly successful JC 220 model that is in use around the world.

A complete Industrial-grade factory refurbished Inkjetfactory I system is now for sale as a complete package price for $13,990. This all-in-one industrial inkjet system has all of the base components for successfully remanufacturing most every popular thermal inkjet cartridge today including--automated deep vacuum refilling system, dozens of fixtures, a four cartridge Spinmax programmable centrifuge, twin atomizers, cartridge hole borer and drill guides, silent air compressor, process training, and supplies starter kit (inks, clips, labels, etc.). This powerful system is cabable of processing 20-40 cartridges per hour peak and can be an outstanding system for both retail or industrial inkjet operations. A terrific value but only one system remaining.

New High-Speed Inkjet Centrifuge

Franklin, TN July 10, 2006 – SME, maker of the world-renowned CBR-SME inkjet equipment line, introduces the SpinMaxx™ 100, a versatile new centrifuge for retail or industrial inkjet ink extraction. With a capacity of over 120 cartridges per hour this small-footprint powerhouse is rugged, fully programmable, and affordable for most every application.

An amalgamation of the best features of the SpinMaxx 240™ High Capacity (36 carts per cycle) machine and the centrifuge in the wildly successful Inkjetfactory® All-in-one retail system, the SpinMaxx™ 100 has a number of key features that are especially noteworthy.

First, since the SpinMaxx™ 100 is microprocessor-controlled, the critical acceleration and deceleration rates are fully programmable. This feature has been proven to minimize foam shifting and diminish nozzle-plate damage over other centrifuge types. Also, the RPM speeds are fully adjustable up to an astounding 3500 RPM!

Second, the SpinMaxx™ 100 requires no additional fixturing. The unit comes standard with a 4-up universal cartridge fixture (works for most every cartridge type) which eliminates the need for additional cartridge fixturing or time-consuming switchovers. The SpinMaxx™ 100 cartridge nest is located only 2” below the top-loading housing door so cartridge loading and extraction is extremely quick and efficient.

Finally, the SpinMaxx™ 100 has a built-in door lock for operator safety, a compact (12” x 13” x 16”) heavy-duty steel chassis, 110V standard power supply, and a four cartridge per minute spin cycle. It is durable enough for both retail and industrial inkjet production-line environments.
