The 5000 Series uses hot melt ink jet technology to print product information, logos, graphics, date codes, and 100% scannable bar codes directly onto a carton
The 5000 Series case coder sets a new standard in image quality for on-line case coding. The 5000 Series uses hot melt ink jet technology to print product information, logos, graphics, date codes, and 100% scannable bar codes directly onto a carton.
- The 5000 Series coder uses MARKEM Touch Dry inks, an instantly drying, nontoxic ink that requires no solvents or special handling.
- The instantly dry ink produces higher-quality prints than those of conventional ink-jet technology. Prints are crisp, opaque and free of smears or ink weeping.
- The 5000 Series coder utilizes 256 addressable ink jets, more than any other industrial ink jet printer, to print high resolution images.
- The 5000 Series prints a range of graphics and logos, including circular images.
- The 5000 Series prints 100% scannable bar codes, including EAN 128 codes.
- With the 5000 Series, manufacturers can gain the benefits of on-line ink jet coding without sacrificing legibility or scannability.
- Printing directly onto the package eliminates the need to inventory pre-printed boxes, which is a significant expense for large, multi-SKU manufacturers.
- Flexible on-line coding offers real time codes, automatic updates and quick changeovers.
- The 5000 Series coder can be networked to other coders and labeling systems on the factory floor, creating a streamlined, cost-efficient workflow.
- The 5000 Series is a clean coding operation. No solvents are required so spills are eliminated along with the associated clean up time.
