Multi-Pass Inkjet

High-mix flexibility for moderate-volume production.

When your design-change cadence is too frequent for pad printing economics, but your volume doesn't yet justify single-pass throughput. The category EPS has shipped 400+ systems into.

Where it wins

Industries we deploy Multi-Pass Inkjet into.

Promotional Products

High-mix, low-to-medium volume runs with personalization. Multi-pass eliminates plate setup cost on every new design.

Large Surface / Signage

Wide-format multi-pass for oversized panels, displays, and industrial parts that won't fit a single-pass line.

Industrial Parts

Decorating tooling, control panels, instrument faces — anything with frequent design revisions and moderate quantities.

Short-Run Packaging

When packaging design cycles run weeks instead of years and short-run economics matter more than absolute throughput.

Who this fits

Is Multi-Pass Inkjet the right answer for your line?

You decorate a high mix of SKUs at moderate volume, with new designs landing weekly or monthly. You can't justify the per-changeover cost of pad printing, but you don't need tens of thousands of parts per hour either.

Right fit when

  • Hundreds to a few thousand per hour
  • Design changes monthly or weekly
  • High SKU count with no setup penalty between jobs
  • Variable data printing (lot codes, serials, personalization)
  • Flat parts, semi-flat parts, or fixture-friendly geometries
  • Full process color (CMYK + white) on demand w/ options for Varnish/Primer and expanded gamut colors
