Agfa and Xaar have formed a strategic agreement for joint research, development and manufacture of next generation inkjet printheads. Covering a five-year period, it will give Agfa access to innovative inkjet technology for new applications in package printing.
The companies have co-operated to develop and manufacture a range of high specification printheads that were previewed at drupa 2004. These will be manufactured at Xaar's plant in Jarfalla, Sweden, and both companies will have the right to sell them into their respective markets. Agfa has invested more than €2.5M in new equipment at the facility.
