Printing of variable data on stick packs
In response to requests by manufacturers of filling machines for stick packs and pouches, Automation Address offers ISP by Inc.Jet, for in-line printing of variable data.
The solution consists in a series of standard models with webs of 600, 800, 1000 or 1200 mm and between 5 and 16 printing heads with HP technology.
All details have been designed to enable easy integration and use with limited bulk. A sliding guide rail enables lateral extraction of the unit for cleaning, maintenance and cartridge change.
The technical components require no regular maintenance or cleaning, or machine stops for ribbon replacement, or costly changeovers of heads in case of burnt pixels. ISP can be connected to a PC for data management using an Ethernet chord.
The standard configuration is also ready for I/O connections for start signals, encoders and alarms. The ISP system enables printing any type of variable information anywhere on the side of the stick pack, including multiple lines.
The solution requires only a small initial investment and operational costs and carries the additional advantage of a lifetime user warranty.
