Tough printer can apply large character labelling
Printer that features a robust self-cleaning print head and IP65 rated SS enclosure is designed to cope with tough production environments and can print large characters, images and barcodes.
Linx Black 1075 adheres strongly to a number of packaging materials, ensuring a clear, legible code on difficult-to-code packaging, whilst the ink's fast drying properties enable its use on high-speed bottling lines.
The Linx 500SL and Linx 300SL laser coders use state-of-the-art steered-beam technology.
The 500SL produces consistently high quality, permanent results even on very high speed lines such as in label coding applications in the bottling industry, and hard to mark applications.
The 300SL, a mid-powered system, is more compact and lightweight than other industrial laser coders in its class and delivers greater print performance.
The IJ600 twinhead outer case coder prints exceptional quality graphics, text and barcodes on bags, boxes, packaging and containers.
The twinheads enable printing on two sides simultaneously and at any angle, and the specially designed pressurised ink system delivers consistent results whatever the head orientation.
