From company updates to helpful hints and tips - Rotech's blog is a one stop shop for coding & marking and packaging information.
A candle manufacturer has boosted its ability to meet growing demand for its premium products by swapping messy and inflexible old coding systems for four clean and flexible, low-maintenance thermal inkjet (TIJ) printers from Rotech.
Over the past year or so we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of food manufacturers choosing thermal inkjet to date code their packaging over other technologies such as continuous inkjet (CIJ) or laser.
When whispers of label shortages began during 2021- many thought that the problem would be resolved within a matter of months. However, like the labels, the problem has stuck, and lead times can span up to 3 months, causing problems for manufacturers across the globe.
Rotech explains how brands can be protected with security features enabled by thermal inkjet.
Albeit a small part of the overall production process, coding and marking is a crucial one, for many reasons. It’s essential in order to meet regulatory requirements, allow for traceability and to display important information to the consumers, such as use by dates.
Now that the benefits of thermal inkjet (TIJ) technology for product coding are much more widely understood, it is understandably surging in popularity among many manufacturers and producers, across all industries.
Manufacturers of extruded plastic, rubber and aluminium construction parts require reliable, easy-to-use coders that can meet the legibility, adhesion and colour requirements of their customers.
The term COO (cost of ownership) is all-important in the world of coding, where the price of a machine isn’t a reflection on its overall lifetime cost.
Continuous Inkjet (CIJ), the fast-drying, non-contact printing technology has been the preferred method to code and mark packaging for many years. It’s ability to print on to virtually any surface at high-speed meant that it was unrivalled for many applications. Until now that is.
