FAQ: Resources

Rotech has been providing innovative coding & marking solutions in the packaging industry since 1997. Now a company of 25+ employees, Rotech primarily design and build our own range of off-line feeding solutions for presenting flat-form packaging to a coding & marking system – primarily using our modern thermal inkjet technology.

Our reputation revolves around providing a valuable end-to-end service and our ability to solve problems – no matter how small or significant.

Feeding systems

We manufacture our feeding systems in-house in the UK to create the shortest possible lead-times on new systems, and the flexibility to provide spares at short notice to keep production lines up and running.

Coding & marking systems

We can supply a large range of coding & marking systems sourced from a range of suppliers. All of our thermal inkjet systems are kept in stock here in the UK, but we work closely with suppliers to provide the shortest possible lead-times of other solutions if they are required.

Consumables

In order to supply customers next day, we stride to hold a vast supply of consumables including ink cartridges, thermal transfer ribbon and hot foil tape.

Thermal inkjet is a non-contact printing technology in which thermal energy is used to expel ink through a nozzle and onto a substrate. TIJ can print at high speeds on to a wide range of different packaging materials, reliably and cost-effectively.

The benefits of TIJ are endless and vary depending on installation, environment and print requirements. Previously, coding and marking systems comprised of a large number of features that are never used (yet still have to be paid for) or have been designed to be high maintenance, making them a large revenue generator for the supplier. In addition, consumable usage and associated costs are high.

At Rotech, we don’t rely on revenues from service, nor do we have high internal costs directly attributed to service. Our TIJ systems provide a truly maintenance free, simple to use and cost-effective coding and marking technology.
