Manufacturers are obliged to label their products with information such as best-before dates and batch numbers. For traceability, stock management and brand reputation, it is vital that this data is of high and reliable quality to remain legible throughout the product lifecycle. SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) face the challenge of finding an easy-to-use printer that can deliver this performance at an affordable price and grow with their business. Today's launch of Markem-Imaje fulfils these objectives with a patented technology that ensures first-class performance and quality in any environment without the need for extensive internal support.
The Printer 9330 is easy to install, operate and maintain and, thanks to its IP55-protected stainless steel housing can be set up at any location. It is also equipped with an automatic print head cleaning system that guarantees quick and easy commissioning. Simply connect and print immediately, even after weeks of downtime. This makes the printer particularly suitable for seasonal production, e.g. for labelling fruit and vegetables.
Maintenance is carried out by the Intelli'Swap -The M6’ all-in-one ink circuit makes replacement so easy that it can be carried out in less than six minutes without leakage or additional waste. All the operator has to do is remove the cartridge with the tool provided and snap it back into place.
Economical, first-class performance and quality
Thanks to its high availability, the 9330 can print for over 8,000 hours without preventive maintenance. As the printer is equipped with the latest generation hydraulic system, which reduces solvent consumption by up to 50 % compared to competitor models in the same category (operation at 20 °C), running costs are also low.
An additional advantage over similar inkjet printers from the competition is the wide range of the Intelli'Ink -portfolio. It offers users considerable flexibility when labelling different materials. One Optimal labelling is ensured by maximising the suitability of the ink for the packaging. MEK-free ink is offered at a standard price and facilitates delivery and adherence to compliance and safety regulations. In addition, the 9330 printer is equipped with an intelligent resource system. No settings are required. In addition, no costly operator errors can occur when changing cartridges.
Consistently high labelling quality is guaranteed by the exclusive Intelli'Jet -technology, which automatically adjusts the ink pressure. A jet speed sensor records the ambient temperature and the speed of the charged ink droplets between each printing process. The jet speed is adjusted to ensure perfect positioning of the ink droplets, high print quality and high durability of the codes.
Long-term solution
The printer is suitable for single production lines and can easily cope with higher capacity requirements. It keeps pace with the development of SMEs from start-up to more demanding applications. It prints on a variety of surfaces such as plastic, cardboard, metal, foil, paper and glass. It also adapts to changing labelling requirements now and in the future.
The 9330 can also be easily connected to our market-leading CoLOS® software, allowing you to manage one or more printers from a single computer - a perfect solution for maximising efficiency and reliability across multiple production lines.
