New course announced: Advanced Inkjet Ink Characterisation

‘Understanding fluid behaviour for formulation and waveform optimisation’

Thursday 16 to Friday 17 July 2026

Novotel Gent Centrum, Ghent, Belgium

IMI Europe has announced an additional course to be held this summer.

Modern inkjet inks must do far more than simply meet viscosity, surface tension and particle size specifications. They must remain stable during storage, circulate reliably through complex fluid systems, respond correctly to drive waveforms, jet consistently at high frequency, land accurately on the substrate and deliver the required final performance.

Led by Dr Tri Tuladhar of TriJet, the intensive workshop delivers a practical and systematic approach to industrial inkjet technology, combining scientific principles with real production experience. The course follows the complete journey of the ink – from bottle to printhead, droplet ejection and flight, substrate impact and drying – explaining the critical physics in both drop on-demand (DoD) and continuous inkjet (CIJ) systems.

Participants will gain a clear understanding of how ink formulation, waveform design and print conditions interact to determine jetting reliability, print quality and manufacturing robustness.

The course is especially relevant for formulators, research and development scientists, process engineers, printhead specialists and technical managers.
