Continuous Inkjet Printers
Continuous Ink Jet (CIJ) systems are used to print variable information, such as dates or batch codes, on individual products as they move along the production line – regardless of porosity, size, shape or texture.
BENEFITS
Can print on almost any materials – at most speeds, and downward, side on or from underneath/and in any orientation.
Good printing tolerance – even when surfaces are not flat or still (eg. wobbling bottles), and are 10mm or more away from the printhead.
Relatively low capital costs & a wide range of inks available – including low evaporation, low taint and a wide spectrum of colors.
Continuous Inkjet Printers
- Linx Continuous Ink Jet printers save you money thanks to their unique design.
- When you commission a Linx CIJ printer you will start to save immediately:
- Ink costs are reduced by using a standard nozzle size that is smaller than others.
- Solvent evaporation is reduced by our unique ink system and enclosure designs.
- At scheduled services, you don’t need to change expensive assemblies.
- Unique printhead design and self-cleaning printhead system reduce
maintenance. - All critical components in the printhead and printer are protected in everyday use.
- User friendly operation helps to avoid coding mistakes and lengthy set up times.
- Our step by step menus and start and stop routines encourage error-free
printing.
