Abstract
The present invention provides a system and a method for recycling an inkjet-printing material. The recycling method comprises the following steps: utilizing a wiper configured to withdraw the inkjet-printing material dispensed by the nozzles, and collecting the inkjet-printing material by means of a recycling tank; mixing a fresh inkjet-printing material with the inkjet-printing material collected by the recycling tank, so as to form a reuse inkjet-printing material; and providing the reuse inkjet-printing material to the nozzles. The present invention can greatly save the inkjet-printing material.
Claims11
A system for recycling an inkjet-printing material, comprising:
- a wiper configured to clean nozzles and to withdraw the inkjet-printing material dispensed by the nozzles;
- a recycling tank connected to the wiper and configured to collect the inkjet-printing material withdrew by the wiper;
- a mixing tank connected between the recycling tank and the nozzles and configured to mix a fresh inkjet-printing material with the inkjet-printing material collected by the recycling tank, so as to form and provide a reuse inkjet-printing material to the nozzles, wherein a predetermined mixture ratio of the inkjet-printing material from the recycling tank and the fresh inkjet-printing material in the mixing tank is in the range of 1:2 to 1:5;
- and
- a buffer tank configured to receive the reuse inkjet-printing material and another fresh inkjet-printing material, so as to provide a usable inkjet-printing material to the nozzles;
- wherein the recycling tank comprises a viscosity sensor configured to sense a viscosity of the inkjet-printing material in the recycling tank.
