New PRIMIR Study Spotlights Inkjet Market Potential

• Integrators are compa-nies such as Dainippon Screen and Sun/Inca that have devel-oped but not yet commercially sold fixed array systems. Integrators are also required to integrate the parts such as the heads, chassis, media handling systems and software into a working system.

• Chemistry manufactur-ers (either captive or inde-pendent) work with head manufacturers to develop inks for new systems. Ideally an inkjet ink manufacturer will develop an ink hand-in-hand with the head manufacturer. This is a requirement for systems hoping to successfully address large-scale markets.
