Linx Printing Technologies has launched the Linx UVG5 UV laser coder, which enables permanent marking on a wide range of materials, including challenging substrates such as recyclable monofilms and rigid plastics.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Linx UVG5 UV laser has been specially developed for permanent marking on complex materials such as sensitive recyclable monofilms and rigid plastics<\/strong>, including HDPE, LDPE and PP. Due to the Minimising the thermal load<\/strong> each coder ensures the integrity of the substrate and reduces the risk of damage, making it an ideal choice for marking sensitive materials where conventional CO2<\/sub>- and fibre lasers can cause undesirable effects.<\/p>\n

The encoder can up to 2,000 characters per second<\/strong> and offers permanent marking with high contrast. Fast and uniform coding optimises production throughput and at the same time supports Traceability with visually legible and machine-readable codes<\/strong>, including 2D DataMatrix, and QR, including GS1 formats.<\/p>

Since when using the UVG5 laser No consumables required<\/strong> When the systems are fully integrated, operating costs and the need for continuous monitoring can be reduced. This contributes to a more sustainable solution, minimises downtime and maximises operator efficiency. The integrated Focus Shift technology enables the marking of products in multiple sizes on a single production line<\/strong>, without the need for manual adjustments. This shortens set-up times and increases the flexibility of the production line.<\/p>\n

In addition, the Linx UVG5 laser coder is suitable for a wide range of applications thanks to its improved integration and flexibility. With various options for customisable beam guidance, it can be Seamless integration into existing production lines<\/strong> and can be installed in areas with limited space. The user-friendly LinxVision interface simplifies operation and reduces the likelihood of errors, allowing operators to maintain consistent production with minimal training.<\/p>
