Yesterday my mate Dave asked me if I sell compatible Videojet printhead nozzle and how much is it. The printhead nozzle actually works well, but the oozing ink makes it impossible to work any longer. So Dave wants to buy a new, cost-effective printhead nozzle. After setting the new printhead nozzle up, he will take some time to repair the leaky but still working old one.

When Dave tells me his intension, I mean, why not just buy the sealing and screws to stop the leakage problem, we can sell them seperately, which may be enough to help with Dave’s Videojet problem.

Dave reckoned it’s a good idea, so he bought a sealing with four screws, together with a compatible printhead nozzle, to keep the production line flowing while he repairs his old nozzle. Let’s wait and see how Dave fix the printhead nozzle.

If you have any questions or inquiries, or maybe don’t know which spare part to buy, please feel free to drop us an inquiry.

To buy an inkcore or an inkcore board, that’s a question. It’s easy to install an inkcore, but costs more; Whilst an inkcore board cost less, but will it fix my Videojet problem?

Don’t worry, let’s have a look at your inkcore first. If it works fine, the only problem is running out of service hour, then replacing the inkcore board is a more cost effective way to make your inkcore work again.

However, if there are more problem other than lack of service hour, we may need to replace an entire inkcore. We could choose either refurbished or original new inkcore for an standard black ink printer, such as 1520, 1620 model. For color pigment printer, like 1710, we’d better buy a new inkcore, for color pigment is stickier, a refurbished inkcore will not last long enough.

For more information, please feel free to contact us.

A new customer James asks about our compatible Videojet V410-D ink and V705-D make up. I send pictures of the printing effect, quotation, and most importantly, stating that our ink and make up, even though compatible, are 100% not with funny odour, because we use import raw material to produce the liquids by ourselves.

James seems pleased with our liquids, but then he pops up a qustion that no one ask before, how are the liquids packed? And James gives me some pictures for reference. Please kindly check below pictures.

To be honest, I don’t know how the liquids are packed. I remember that there was a complaint about our cartons are not strong enough before, then we reinforced the packing to support the liquids, no complaint ever since and I simply let it slip. Since James brings it up, I head to our liquid workshop to have a look. Here is how we pack our liquids and a close up picture of our support carton.

No matter you are already one of our cutomers, or new client, please feel free to tell us what you need, and what you are concerned of, we will reply as thorough as we can.

Is it difficult to maintain a pump by ourselves?

It depends, if you are not a tech and just want to try fix the pressure pump, we could purchase a whole set of pump head with motor. It doesn’t require much work, as long as we pin point that it’s the pump which leads to the failure, we can fix the problem by replacing a new set of pump with motor. However, it cost most.

As you may know, the motor seldom goes wrong. The pump head, on the contrary, usually worn out easily. We can tell if the motor working or not by hearing, if the motor vibrates a little and generates a small noise, it’s working fine. Then we just need to replace the pump head.

If we really want to challenge ourselves, we can try fix the pump head by replacing the gear kits. The gear kits worn out and causing the pump fails to work, but it takes some experience to change a new set of gear kit.
