Gamma 60/61 Gamma 70/71 Direct Digital Ceramic Decoration Systems The Durst Gamma is the world‘s first industrial-scale inkjet printer using specially formulated, pigmented ceramic inks to digitally decorate ceramic floor and wall tiles, offering significant economic benefits as well as superior design advantages over traditional systems.

Compare to the limitations of conventional tile decoration techniques and other digital systems on the market, this new, no-touch, digital printing technology offers unlimited image variations, no setup costs thus eliminating the need to print minimum quantities, far superior image quality, definition and dynamic range.

The CMYK Printing Process The Durst non-impact CMYK inkjet printing technology uses droplets of ink jetted from the small apertures (nozzles) to a specified position on the tile to create an image. During printing the four colors—cyan, magenta, yellow and black, abbreviated as CMYK—are automatically combined in various ways to create virtually any color required in one step.

The Advantages Ultimate Design Variation & Flexibility (Patented Durst Random Design Printing Technology). With this technology endless different tiles can be created, using several designs at the same time and to obtain each tile to be different. It allows to develop new products and to offer new customized solutions. New design samples can also be created much faster and at lower costs. Unique custom designs and concepts are now possible.

100 % Edge-to-Edge Decoration With the Durst Gamma the entire top surface of the tile is printed, right to the very edge where the mould falls. No more need to use colored glaze body to minimize the effect of “white edges” known from traditional decoration systems. Full Relief Decoration When decorating uneven tiles (with medium & strong reliefs), it assures perfect definition of all parts.
