Reliable Inkjet Printers' Appeal To Pharma Firm
Maintenance free and reliable operation are the key factors that have made the Wolke M600 thermal transfer inkjet printer the coder of choice at Smith and Nephew's advanced wound management factory.
The new model is claimed to resolve the issue of printing high density bar codes and 2D codes in-line by controlling the carton during the printing and vision process.
Codes are printed using the new Wolke m600 thermal inkjet printer and verified by an OCV character verification system.
The m600 is claimed to have the ability to print in real-time in accordance with the latest Animal Health requirements for track and traceability.
Data can be inputted from a remote server through the built - in Ethernet port.
The printer's HP technology and water-based inks are said to provide clean and maintenance-free coding on to a range of substrates, producing characters and bar codes up to 600 dots per inch (dpi).
The Pharmacarton III also comprises a carton conveyor, stabilising belts and a reject unit to remove sub-standard packs immediately and help maintain line speeds.
The unit can be integrated in to existing packaging lines and is adjustable to suit a range of carton sizes, added the company.
