Videojet has been dedicated to product innovation for over 40 years. “We
persistently pursue the development of the most advanced printing and
marking solutions to meet the packaging industry’s demands for
productivity and uptime,” said Matt Aldrich, North America Director of
Marketing at Videojet. “At Pack Expo, attendees will be able to see our
suite of revolutionary solutions, and a packaging line that showcases
advanced capabilities and smart connectivity to help drive higher
productivity levels.”
In the booth, new equipment and a broad selection of key solutions from
the full Videojet marking and printing line are featured, including
continuous inkjet (CIJ) printers, thermal inkjet (TIJ) printers, thermal
transfer overprinters (TTO), laser marking systems, case coders and
print and apply labelers.
Enhanced Efficiencies Thanks to New, Advanced Print Solutions
New technologies showcased by Videojet at Pack Expo include:
The brand new Videojet
1860 CIJ, which uses innovative predictive capabilities including
an industry-first ink build-up sensor to provide up to eight hours of
advanced notice of common potential fault conditions that can impact
OEE and uptime. Users can count on enhanced predictability and
performance without surprises – achieved through advances in CIJ
printing technology integrated with new on-board intelligence and
communications abilities. More than 50 real-time sensors continuously
monitor 150+ key indicators of printer performance to provide
diagnostics, analytics and guidance. The Videojet 1860’s 45-degree
slanted printhead design delivers increased versatility through easy
line integration and more mounting options than a 90-degree printhead
to provide closer proximity to the product.
The new Videojet SIMPLICiTY™ interface greatly reduces operator
printer interactions to help eliminate potential user errors through
an intuitive, tablet-inspired 10” touchscreen interface.
Much more than a remote monitoring service, VideojetConnect™
Remote Service is an intelligent cloud-based solution that helps
customers optimize printer performance by empowering remote diagnosis
and repair along with visibility beyond simple printer performance.
Information can be tailored to the user, whether a plant or production
manager or an operator, to provide dashboard analytics, performance
reports, automated notifications and production data. With
VideojetConnect Remote Service, users can anticipate issues and
accelerate recovery thanks to remote printer access supported by
Videojet technical experts. At Pack Expo, VideojetConnect Remote
Service capabilities are demonstrated via the Videojet Remote Edge
Server featuring connectivity and communication with all coding and
marking technologies displayed in the Videojet booth.
The Videojet
LifeCycle Advantage™ suite of offerings includes VideojetConnect™
Remote Service and is backed by the largest service footprint in the
industry for fast remote recovery and on-site responsiveness. Service
options are designed to complement manufacturers’ unique maintenance
and support needs. With a proactive focus on operational improvements,
Videojet LifeCycle Advantage can help customers maintain printer
performance, quickly recover unplanned interruptions and optimize the
performance of their coding and marking equipment.
The new Videojet
DataFlex® 6530 and 6330 TTO printers feature
revolutionary iAssure™ technology, an industry-first, integrated code
assurance system that automatically checks every print for
alphanumeric print defects and helps to reduce the packaging waste
that results from coding errors. The modular design gives users the
flexibility to choose how to fit the printer into their production
line, and for those users requiring fewer components exposed in a
production environment, the printer can also be controlled through its
web interface for a streamlined, single point of control. The 6530’s
all-electronic design utilizes a new and exclusive printhead,
eliminating the need for plant air and its associated costs, while
allowing for more control and faster throughput speeds.
The new high-powered CO2Videojet
3640 60-Watt Laser Marking System is engineered to process complex
codes at the highest speeds and features the industry's widest mark
field. The Videojet 3640 meets the demand for enhanced speeds in data
processing and communication, helping manufacturers code with
virtually no font, code or graphic restrictions at line speeds up to
900 meters per minute, depending on the application. The wide marking
window allows the 3640 to cover up to 600mm, meaning a variety of wide
web applications that previously would have required two lasers can be
addressed with one laser.
The new Videojet
7220 and 7320 Fiber laser marking systems deliver versatile,
permanent coding with a small footprint and low maintenance. Perfect
for high-contrast color change on plastic and metal materials, these
reliable, pulsed fiber laser marking systems feature built-in
productivity and flexibility that can be configured to the user’s
needs.
Other Videojet products in the booth at Pack Expo include:
The Videojet
3340 Laser Marking System delivers high-quality codes while
marking products and packaging on moderate and high speed lines. The
3340 is an ideal solution to meet the demand for complex codes in the
food, beverage, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. It offers
complete system flexibility with 21 mark window options, four marking
heads, 15 lenses and three wavelengths.
The Videojet
3140 Laser Marking System, the fastest 10-Watt laser in its class,
provides 32 standard beam delivery options for easy integration into
packaging lines. It is engineered to mark both simple and complex
codes on a range of substrates including paperboard, glass, painted
metal, paper labels, PET and other plastic materials.
The Videojet
9550 Print & Apply Labeler with Intelligent MotionTM technology
utilizes advanced direct drive technology to eliminate the manual
adjustments, clutches and nip rollers that often cause downtime in
traditional print and apply case coding operations. Its on-board label
database, automatic bar code creation, intuitive job selection and
powerful diagnostics all combine to help prevent coding errors and
increase efficiencies.
The Wolke®
m600 oem TIJ printer is designed to deliver integration
versatility combined with the industry’s most powerful data handling
capabilities. It offers secure, ultra-fast processing of up to 20
unique records per second, and printing of 2D DataMatrix and GS1 128
bar codes.
The Videojet
8610 TIJ printer utilizes a purpose-built inkjet cartridge
designed for MEK and other industrial inks. Its Cartridge Readiness
System™ helps prevent ink from drying in the nozzles during production
interruptions, providing clean, repeatable codes with virtually no
operator intervention. The 8610 provides high-speed, high-resolution
printing of simple text as well as complex marks on non-porous
materials like foils, films, plastics and coated stocks.
For special applications that require easily readable variable data
codes on dark materials, the Videojet
1710 CIJ printer uses high-contrast pigmented inks to create
impactful, highly visible codes. The 1710 prints on surfaces upon
which dye-based inks are not easily viewable, such as colored glass,
rubber tubing, plastic cabling and dark paperboard. It is capable of
printing a variety of fonts in multiple languages, as well as linear
bar codes, 2D DataMatrix codes, custom logos and graphics.
