Abstract

Ceramic inks can be used to mark metal sheets in hot forming for track-and-trace purposes. However, the ceramic pigments in the inks can lead to clogging of printer nozzles which results in loss of print quality. Here we report on a predictive maintenance concept including different machine- and deeplearning models as the basis of a print quality assurance strategy. Pixelwise image segmentation leads to detailed information about the printing results. The information is used to train a model, classifying the remaining useful lifetime until insufficient printing results.
