  1. _ _ _ nir® (Near Infrared)Drying Technology Thompson Direct Inc Dion Thompson 2397 Von Esch Rd Plainfiled IL 60586 513.277.0464 dion@thompsondirect.us

  2. _ _ _ nir ® Technology Overview • Only AdPhos has a peak irradiation wavelength of .8 µm • Most other inkjet drying systems use straight infrared at 2 µm and above. • Other systems using _ _ _ nir(NearInfraRed)technology are at 1.2 µm.

  3. _ _ _ nir ® Technology Overview _ _ _ nir ®(NearInfraRed) technology enables application of the highest energy quantities on the greatest diversity of substrates

  4. Absorption/Transmission of Energy for Inkjet Applications • Black ink absorbs energy across all wavelengths • _ _ _ nir applies more energy to the ink and less to white paper compared to traditional _ _ _ ir

  5. Absorption/Transmission of Energy for Inkjet Applications _ _ _ nir Technology Infrared Technology 0.8 µm = 3500K >1.5 µm = 2500K Paper Paper • NIR radiation travels through substrates, reflects off of the mailbase or reflector material and dries the ink from top and bottom • IR radiation dries via a “top down” approach. The ink and paper are equally heated from the top only. Mailbase or Reflector

  6. Benefits of _ _ _ nir®Technology • Greater production speeds and throughput • Due to the greater absorption of energy by the ink and not the substrates, the inks dry approx. 30% faster and more thoroughly than with conventional infrared technology. • Reduced heating of substrates results in less paper curl and improves substrate handling. • Precise energy control / Tool-less lamp replacement • Ability to inkjet on greater variety of substrates • Faster and more thorough drying expands the substrate space printers can image. • One customer expanded their number of coated substrates they were able to print and dry on from 6 to over 30 • With the proper ink formulatuion (ie. Flexprint Aqueous) customers can print and dry at full production speeds on even the most challenging of substrates – even on some plastic card and UV overcoated materials.

  7. Benefits of _ _ _ nir®Technology • Reduced operating cost • _ _ _nir® requires approx 30% less power than IR • Patented reflector system reflects >98% of the energy toward where it is needed.
