Marker system provides crisp text and graphics
Label printer-applicators include a high-density, on-demand thermal/thermal-transfer printer that provides crisp text, in-spec bar codes, and graphics at 203- or 300-dpi.
Labelling systems upgraded to celebrate
Weber Marking Systems has manufactured its 1,000th 5200 Series Print and Apply Labeller, just three years after the machine was launched.
All incorporate a Piezo print head and a gravity fed system to eliminate the need for pumps.
They feature an integrated keyboard for data entry, with the option to link the ink jet to internal data networks.
Oil-based, solvent free inks are environmentally friendly.
The Jetcoder has been designed specifically for large character coding.
With no moving parts in the print head and ink system, and efficient ink usage, it offers low running costs.
The Uniline and Multiline machines are capable of printing high definition text, graphics and barcodes quickly and precisely onto packs such as cartons, trays and paper sacks.
The Multiline features up to four print heads per control box to produce text in font heights up to 48mm.
The Waxmark is an innovative printer that uses coloured wax rather than ink as its print medium.
The wax is melted in a heated reservoir and then flows to a heated print head, where it is applied in the usual way.
Since the wax particles cool immediately on contact with the coding surface, the marks adhere rapidly onto virtually all materials.
Up to 4 lines of clear letter quality text can be produced.
"These machines extend our ability to be a complete supplier of labelling and coding systems to meet all requirements," comments Bill Knox, Weber's UK Managing Director.
"With the availability of this additional technology, we are even better placed to provide a tailor made solution to meet a customer's precise coding needs.
Needless to say, the new equipment also matches our high standards for efficiency and reliability.".
