Long-lasting codes are crucial for traceability and security on cables and wires. The chosen coding and marking solution must be capable of running at high speeds to keep up with production. Printing can be done directly onto the wire, on small labels or tags, and even applying code to the cable reel cores. Manufacturers may want to display the voltage, type of wire, sizing, or batch number.
Printing cables with thermal inkjet (TIJ)
High-speed wire production lines require a solution that has little downtime. Thermal Inkjet technology is ideal for those looking for a zero-maintenance solution. The coders have no moving parts, so do not require servicing. As a result, you minimise downtime and maximise efficiency.
Unlike CIJ technology, all Rotech’s printers can apply alphanumerical text as small as 1mm, 1D or 2D barcodes and logos without the need for a costly specialised printhead. Compact printers are easy to integrate into existing machinery without the extra moving parts usually associated with coding technology.
