Next Week: IMI Europe Inkjet Summer School

The IMI Europe Inkjet Summer School, to be held from 13 to 17 July at the Novotel Gent Centrum, Ghent, Belgium, is the ideal way to learn more about inkjet technology, with the introductory Inkjet Academy course as well as advanced courses on inks, printheads and applications.

The Inkjet Academy course covers the background to the inkjet technology used in today’s applications and gives your understanding of the industry an expert start.

The course introduces the key types of inkjet technology and how they operate, then describes how printheads operate, with an overview of the key models in use today. You will learn how inks are formulated, the important materials used, and how inkjet inks behave in a printhead.

The course also covers ink supply systems, software, motion systems and the integration of these components into an inkjet system. Testing inks and systems is also covered, along with nozzle maintenance and print quality. The course then looks at some key applications from a market and technology point of view with instructive case studies, before looking at new and emerging areas.

A number of different courses such as fluid dynamics, inkjet ink manufacturing, advanced characterisation, surface treatments, and understanding Piezo and waveforms are available. Details can be found here: imieurope.com/inkjetsummerschool2026-introduction
