Hall 8b/ D18 | Hitachi's Sustainable coding and marking

Hitachi Sets ESG Milestones for Product Coding at Hitachi's Coding & Marking Division. The company is showcasing its commitment to sustainability with innovative product coding solutions designed to help users in the packaging industry achieve their ESG goals. The new Hitachi UX2 Continuous Inkjet Printer drives efficiency forward by using improved dot control algorithms to produce legible codes at the highest production speeds. The printer features a newly designed print head with a mist shield function that collects ink mist during printing before it reaches the sensitive print components, ensuring consistent high-quality printing and minimizing the need for print head cleaning.

The UX2's innovative Safe Clean function offers several benefits to the user and the printer itself, including minimizing the printer's cleaning effort, allowing the user to clean the printer quickly and easily without long interruptions in production, saving time and resources as less solvent is needed.
