Keep date and batch coding in line with your production speed by selecting the right inkjet technology and line triggering setup.
High-speed date coding requires a printer that can keep up with pack movement while still producing a readable code in the available print window.
CIJ is often considered for fast non-contact coding on moving bottles, cans, containers and flexible packs. TIJ can be fast on suitable flat surfaces where high-resolution print is needed.
We look at line speed, product pitch, encoder requirement, message length and ink drying time before recommending equipment.
Select a printer that suits actual production speed and message length.
Stable spacing helps the sensor trigger at the right moment.
Ink must dry before the pack is handled, sleeved, cartoned or packed.
