Empowering Flexible Manufacturing with High-Speed Redundancy: The KEVAN 108MM High-Speed Inkjet Printing System Redefines the Paradigm for Short-Run, Multi-SKU Printing

13 Apr,2026

In the packaging, logistics, and office printing sectors, the demand for short-run, multi-SKU, and variable data production is experiencing explosive growth. The pain points of traditional printing—such as high minimum order quantities, slow plate changing, and high costs—coupled with the bottlenecks of labeling processes like high labor costs, error-proneness, and low efficiency, have become core obstacles to flexible production.

KEVAN 108MM’s newly launched 108mm high-speed inkjet printing system addresses these industry challenges with an ultimate high-speed redundancy of 85 meters per minute and high-definition printing capabilities at 1200×1200 DPI physical resolution. Beyond solving current efficiency and cost dilemmas, its forward-thinking design, which reserves future space through "technical redundancy," offers infinite possibilities for high-end OEM integration and special production line customization, redefining the value standard of plateless digital printing.

I. More Than Just "Fast": The Core Value of 85 Meters Per Minute is "Freedom" Reserved for the Future

Addressing misconceptions in the market regarding high-speed printing, KEVAN 108MM clarifies that the standard speed of 58 meters per minute and the high-speed mode of 85 meters per minute (within the 108mm print width) are not merely about "higher and faster." Instead, they represent flexible solutions tailored for different tiers of customers.

Standard Speed (58 m/min): Perfectly matches mass production needs for standard envelopes, labels, and cartons. It meets daily production requirements with stable, efficient performance, balancing cost and efficiency.
High-Speed Mode (85 m/min and above): This is a technical redundancy interval reserved specifically for high-end OEM customers and special production line customization. It supports customized hardware modifications, secondary software development, and deep production line integration. This allows ample room for future capacity upgrades, process iterations, and special scenario applications, truly achieving "one-time investment, long-term adaptability."

Equipped with HP Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) technology, the system utilizes a CMYK four-color printing solution. Its printhead structure features one head for dual-color and two heads for four-color configurations. Paired with a positive pressure ink supply system, a printhead self-constant pressure system, and nozzle micro-circulation anti-drying technology, it guarantees 1200×1200 DPI physical resolution even during high-speed printing. Colors are accurately reproduced, and lines are sharp. Furthermore, the large ink capacity design (775ml per color × 4 colors) significantly reduces downtime for ink changes, further enhancing production continuity.

II. Directly Addressing Industry Pain Points: One-Stop Solutions for Four Core Challenges

The KEVAN 108MM high-speed inkjet printing system precisely targets four core industry pain points, reconstructing production workflows with plateless digital printing technology:

Solving Low Efficiency in Short-Run, Multi-SKU, and Variable Data Printing: No plate making is required; print immediately upon file transfer. Variable data (barcodes, QR codes, serial numbers, personalized info) is generated and printed in real-time. Single-sheet printing has no threshold, perfectly adapting to multi-SKU, short-run production, with efficiency multiplied compared to traditional processes.
Cracking the High MOQ, Slow Changeover, and High Cost of Traditional Printing: Completely Skip the fuss processes like plate making and exposure. Changeovers have zero cost and zero wait time, significantly reducing printing costs for small batches and shortening delivery cycles.
Replacing Cumbersome Labeling Processes: By printing directly onto cartons, envelopes, and label substrates, the system eliminates the need for labeling labor, label consumables, and labeling equipment. This fundamentally prevents issues like labeling errors, omissions, and peeling, achieving significant cost reduction and efficiency gains.
Meeting "Print-on-Transfer," Plateless, Low-Cost, and Data Security Needs: Supporting direct ERP connection and offline printing, the device does not actively connect to the internet, ensuring data security from the source. Meanwhile, plateless printing enables "print-on-demand," drastically reducing inventory and trial-and-error costs.

Additionally, the system uses HP original water-based pigment ink (with water-based dye to be opened later), complying with EU environmental standards. It is suitable for industries with strict environmental requirements, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and exports.

III. Three Core Application Scenarios Covering All Printing Needs

Envelope Applications: Precise Adaptation for #10 Envelopes with Secure, Efficient Variable Data Printing
Targeting demands for business correspondence, bills, and Invoice, the system precisely adapts to #10 envelope dimensions (104.77×241.3 mm). It supports variable data, multi-page PDF direct printing, and ERP system integration, while featuring offline printing capabilities. The process never actively connects to the internet, thoroughly guaranteeing customer data security. Whether for bill mailing, business letters, or personalized marketing envelopes, it achieves high-speed, high-definition, and secure printing, replacing traditional envelope printing plus labeling processes and significantly boosting office and business printing efficiency.

Label Applications: 108mm Width with Unlimited Length for Instant Labeling in All Scenarios
The system supports label printing with a 108mm print width and unlimited length, covering all categories of label applications:

Logistics Labels (Electronic Waybills): High-speed printing of express waybills and logistics tracking codes, adapting to the high-throughput needs of the express and e-commerce industries.
Footwear & Apparel Multi-SKU Hang Tags/Stickers: Full-color printing of brand logos, sizes, prices, and traceability info. Instant printing and use without plate making adapts to the multi-SKU, short-run production characteristics of the footwear and apparel industry.
Chemical & Disposable Product Labels: Eco-friendly ink complies with EU standards, allowing direct printing of product info, warning signs, and brand patterns to meet compliance requirements. The advantages of no plate making, full color, and instant use allow label production to completely break free from traditional printing limitations, realizing flexible and personalized production.

Carton Applications: Side + Downward Dual Spray Modes, Direct Printing Replaces Labeling
The system supports dual printing directions: horizontal (box side) and vertical (downward). It can directly print brand patterns, logistics info, variable data, and anti-counterfeiting codes onto carton surfaces, completely replacing traditional carton labeling processes. This saves labeling labor, consumables, and equipment, reducing labor costs by over 60% while avoiding errors and peeling. It is particularly suited for short-run, multi-variety carton production. Whether for e-commerce express boxes, food packaging boxes, or industrial product cartons, it achieves high-speed inkjet printing of color content and variable data, helping companies build differentiated brand packaging while improving logistics flow efficiency.

IV. Technology Empowering the Future: Creating an Open Ecosystem for OEM Integration and Line Customization

The KEVAN 108MM high-speed inkjet printing system features proprietary RIP software. The standard version is permanently free, while secondary development is available for a fee, providing open technical interfaces for high-end OEM customers and system integrators. The 85 m/min high-speed redundancy reserves ample space for line speed increases, multi-device linkage, and special process integration. It can deeply adapt to high-end scenarios like automated production lines, smart warehousing, and customized packaging, assisting clients in building proprietary smart printing solutions.

From envelopes to labels, and from cartons to special production lines, KEVAN 108MM centers on technology and customer needs. It utilizes high-speed, flexible, and secure plateless digital printing technology to solve production pain points and unleash capacity for enterprises, driving the printing industry toward intelligent, flexible, and green transformation. In the future, KEVAN 108MM will continue to delve into inkjet printing technology, empowering digital upgrades across thousands of industries with a more open ecosystem and forward-looking design.
