Continuous InkJet Printer | CIJ

One of the most common types of industrial printers are continuous inkjet printers, CIJ printers. Also known as a small character printer, a cij prints characters with an average height of  0.031 - 0.39 in (0.8 - 10 mm) typically across multiple lines. They are ideal for quickly printing lines of small, variable data with excellent adhesion and high resolution. CIJ printers are  a type of barcode printers and logo printers that mark a product directly.

 

CIJ Batch Coders

  • Prints best by dates, lot codes, batch numbers, serial numbers, barcodes, and logos
  • A common solution for rigid plastic marking
  • Balances excellent adhesion, ink color and type options, speed, and reliability
  • Small character printing with reverse printing options
  • Clear, reliable QR code printing, logo printing, and barcode printing

Drop-On-Demand Printers | DOD

Drop-on demand or DOD inkjet printers are large character printers made for reliability in harsh environments. DOD printers have an ink reservoir and only release an ink droplet when printing. This design conserves ink and increases the longevity of the printer. When high-speed printing is unnecessary and reliably printing over a large area is vital, DOD printers are an ideal choice to cut costs on equipment and consumables without sacrificing efficiency.

Laser Marking Systems | CO2 | Fiber | UV

The three types of laser marking systems include CO2 laser coders, fiber laser coders, and UV laser coders. Laser coding is a product marking solution that uses a concentrated beam of light to mark characters on a product’s surface. The resulting permanent, visible mark can be an expiration date, a logo,  a QR code, or a combination of simple and complex data. Laser coders provide permanent, reliable traceability through ink-free coding with little to no maintenance. The versatility and easy operation of laser coders reduce downtime, maintenance, and costs.
