Meteor Inkjet’s powers Quantica’s NovoJet printhead
By reliably jetting the highest viscosities, the partnership opens the door to multiple new applications
Quantica, a high-viscosity AM technology provider, has selected Meteor Inkjet, a printhead drive electronics company, to integrate its electronics into Quantica’s NovoJet printhead technology.
Quantica’s technology is capable of jetting complex functional materials – such as high-viscosity adhesives, advanced coatings, and micron particle-size inks – that have traditionally been beyond the capabilities of conventional printheads. This collaboration leverages Meteor’s established reputation for powerful and reliable electronics, equipping NovoJet with electronics known and trusted across the globe.
NovoJet printheads, driven by Meteor electronics, push digital printing beyond traditional low-viscosity materials. By reliably jetting the highest viscosities, they open the door to advanced digital manufacturing and broaden what is possible in industrial production far beyond graphics.
“Meteor is proud to be working alongside Quantica to help bring their groundbreaking NovoJet printhead technology to market. Additive manufacturing is rapidly evolving, and the ability to jet a wider range of functional materials opens up enormous opportunities for innovation. By combining Quantica’s materials expertise with Meteor’s proven electronics and software, we’re enabling the next generation of high-performance, digital manufacturing systems,” said Clive Ayling, Managing Director of Meteor Inkjet.
The first Quantica system equipped with Meteor drive electronics will be the Print Engine, a production-ready solution designed for integration into manufacturing lines and other industrial environments. Delivery of the engine is slated for 2026.
