LARGE CHARACTER PRINTERS

DOD LARGE CHARACTER PRINTERS

Large character printers are equipped with high-performance, intelligent electronics and nozzles with a high switching frequency. This facilitates precision, large-format, low-resolution printing even in fast production processes. You can apply digits, numbers, codes and much more to a variety of surfaces and materials. And this gives you maximum efficiency in your manufacturing process. The inkjet printers feature the latest interfaces, so that they can be optimally integrated into your existing systems. Our proven large character printers will provide you with outstanding performance, even in tough environments, while ensuring high-contrast coding with alphanumeric texts, expiration dates, counters and production batches directly on flat, curved and irregular surfaces. A reliable and efficient printing system suitable for a wide range of application contexts. It makes for a low total cost of ownership (TCO) and offers multiple benefits, better IP protection and consistent and reliable performance, even in tough production environments characterised by humidity, dust or high temperatures.
Thanks to the circulating ink supply system with its continuous and automatic agitation of the ink and the innovative nozzle design of the print head technology, heavily pigmented and viscous inks can also be used for labelling.

The reliable 7/16/32/48-nozzle print heads are made using high-efficiency solenoid technology. We use chemical-resistance Teflon compounds and high-quality stainless-steel connections. These offer excellent impact and vibration resistance on production lines. For more quality and reliability in marking secondary packaging.

The SIGTEK marking system, equipped with a stainless-steel housing and analogue operating concept, is suitable for simple and repeated marking work. High-resolution graphics and multi-line texts can be printed reliably and intuitively with the Lite Z101, Z402 or Z408. A graphical touch display is used to display and interactively create the print result.
