Four-Head TIJ Case Printer
Up to 50.8 mm of high-resolution print for cases and trays.
Built around your product
Four stitched heads give enough height for product descriptions, barcodes and handling symbols on shelf-ready packaging and shipping cases, with bulk ink to cut the cost per print.
Each cartridge contains hundreds of microscopic nozzles. A resistor behind each nozzle heats the ink for a few microseconds, forming a vapour bubble that ejects a droplet. Nozzles are fired in columns as the product passes, building the image. Water-based inks suit porous board; solvent and UV-curable inks extend TIJ to films, foils and coated cartons.
Key features
- Print height up to 50.8 mm
- Bulk ink option for long runs
- Spring-loaded head mount follows case variation
- ITF-14 and GS1-128 barcode printing
