Overview SAMBA® printhead technology combines Silicon MEMS (Si‑MEMS) fabrication accuracy with sputtered PZT actuators in a parallelogram nozzle‑plate design to deliver high‑quality output at near‑analog production speeds. It is designed for single‑pass inkjet and material deposition applications where scalability and precise droplet control are required.

Scalability & Design A single SAMBA® G3L head provides a 43 mm (1.7 in) print width and can be combined into print bars of virtually any width. The parallelogram nozzle‑plate enables simplified printhead stitching, producing very narrow, high‑resolution printbars (up to 1200 dpi) suitable for production environments.

Typical Applications

• High‑quality commercial printing
• Labels
• Packaging
• Textiles
• Material deposition / functional coatings

Additional Notes The SAMBA® G3L architecture leverages Si‑MEMS precision and sputtered PZT reliability to ensure life and performance appropriate for industrial production. Documentation and product datasheets (PDF) are available for Samba® G3L/G5L variants. The design facilitates multi‑head arrays for high‑resolution, high‑speed output.
