Reliable and Durable Industrial Marking Methods for Every Type of Product
In the industrial sector, there are various marking systems for packaging, and it is very important to choose them carefully based on the material to be treated and other factors. The aspects to consider when selecting which marking applicators to use include:
- the material of the object to be marked (also considering the porosity of the material);
- the shape of the object to be marked;
- the size of the material to be treated.
Continuous Inkjet Markers
Among marking systems for packaging, continuous inkjet is certainly the most widespread in production environments. The strengths of continuous inkjet marking systems are:
- ease of application;
- fast drying;
- operational flexibility.
The continuous inkjet is a contactless marking system suitable for flat or curved surfaces. It can mark numerous materials at high speed, including plastic, glass, paper, and fabrics.
Ink Dispensers for Different Types of Surfaces
Industrial marking uses different types of ink dispensers:
- Brush with reservoir: a refillable brush with a straight handle that also functions as a reservoir, equipped with a valve that controls the ink flow;
- Roller with reservoir: a refillable roller with a pump system to regulate the ink supply onto the neoprene roller (ideal for non-porous surfaces such as metal and glass);
- Spray inks for marking: resistant to light, oils, and aging (suitable for marking metal, plastic, glass, cardboard, wood, cement, and painted surfaces).
