As we know the pigment ink is thicker and sticker than the standard black ink, so if we apply a vacuum pump ENM4295 on white/blue pigment MI CIJ printer like 9040 & 9450C, chances are the ENM4295 vacuum pump will work for one or two weeks, then fails to perform. For the sticky pigment stuck on the pump head and hauls it slowly till it stops working.

To provide a better pump head for pigment printer, we develop a stronger version of ENM4295. By appearance, it looks like ENM4295 with an extra black coating, which helps to resist chemical corrosion. And of course, the core is stronger.

If you are interested in stronger version of vacuum pump, pressure compatible to Markem Imaje continuous inkjet printers, please feel free to contact us.

When your Videojet ink core needs to be replaced, by checking if the pump works or not, could save you up to $200. As the pump seldom goes wrong, if we could continue to harness it, why hurry for a replacement. But how do we know if the pump is working? Well, there is a simple way to figure it out, by hearing the sound of the pump. Whilst the pump is working, if we listen carefully, we will notice the pump produce a small noise, which means it is working fine; if there is no sound generated by the pump at all, then we need to buy a refurbished ink core with pump then. We have two types of pump for you to choose, one is compatible, the other is refurbished original. Please feel free to contact us for more info.

We finally have the newest Videojet version 5 main board. Please feel free to drop us an inquiry.

There are total 5 versions of the Videojet main board. If you are not so sure about which version you need, please send us a picture of the board you are applying now, then we will know.

I would suggest that a refurbished board will be good enough for most of us. Before delivery, I will take a picture of the main board so that you can double check with the configuration and part number etc.

Please feel free to drop us an inquiry now. 🙂

Last Tuesday, a client asked me, how many hours do your comptible V705-D Videojet countdown chip have. As I was packing the chips to another customer, I took a picture and sent it to him. We programed this V705-D Chips on 20th Feb 2021, and it shows it will expire on 20th Mar 2024. Though the chip is called “countdown chip”, we set an expire date in it instead of making it to countdown.

For the most of the compatible Videojet chips, like V410, V705, V411 etc, it’s safe to say that they will expire in 2 years(they actually work longer than 24 months). If you want to know a specific chip’s lasting hours, please feel free to contact us.
