Patent number: 9228098Abstract: A method and system for printing on glass boards is provided. The method may include jetting, from an inkjet printing system onto a glass board, a glass-based ink having solid glass particles to form a printed glass board; heating the glass board prior to jetting the glass-based ink; heating the glass board after jetting to fix the ink onto the glass board; conveying the printed glass board to a furnace; and firing the printed glass board in the furnace at temperature of no less than 550.degree. C. to melt the solid glass particles onto the glass board and complete fixation of the glass-based ink.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2013Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: DIP TECH. LTD.Inventor: Gera Eron

Patent number: 8163077Abstract: The invention relates to an ink-jet ink composition for printing on a ceramic substrate comprising: (a) a liquid vehicle; (b) sub-micron particles of binding composition having a melting point below 6000 C; and (c) sub-micron particles causing an etch-like effect, said sub-micron particles are selected from metal oxide particles, high melting point frit particles, and a combination thereof, said sub-micron particles causing an etch-like effect have a melting point of at least 500 C above the melting point of said sub-micron particles of binding composition. The invention further relates to a printing process using such ink and to a ceramic substrate printed with a pattern or image having an etch-like effect, by means of the printing process.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2006Date of Patent: April 24, 2012Assignees: Yissum Research Development Company of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, DIP Tech. Ltd.Inventors: Gera Eron, Avi Feinschmidt, Shlomo Magdassi, Yelena Vinetsky, Eliane Liraz
