Cable printing (white printing, 80 m/minute)
Cable printing (black printing, 470 m/minute)
PET bottle cap printing (140 m/minute)

Features

Print rate made faster by approx. 30% (compared to former models)

Capable of printing up to 650 m/minute* for high-speed lines such as those for cables

  • With 5 x 5 dots, 10 characters/inch

High-speed printing quality improved by adopting a new print control system

Printing quality in high-speed printing improved by adopting a new print control system dedicated to high-speed printing, in addition to the conventional print control system

Support for new pigmented inks for cable printing

Support provided for new pigmented inks for cable printing with improved adhesion compared to conventional inks

New functions for cable printing added

New functions added include the function for printing and signal output at intervals of the specified number of meters* and the optional function that detects encoder backward rotation, and it correctly resumes printing when the encoder starts rotating forward

  • The error for signal output at intervals of 1 m at a speed of 600 m/minute is approximately ±0.5%.
