CO2 laser coders for variable data printing
Domino Printing Sciences has announced the launch of its latest generation CO2 laser coders, the Dx-Series.
The laser coders are optimised for high-speed, high-resolution, advanced variable data printing for a wide variety of packaging types.
Dx-Series lasers deliver up to 30% faster coding than previous generation CO2 coders, with no reduction in code quality, making them suitable for complex advanced variable data code requirements, including high-resolution 2D codes such as QR codes powered by GS1.
Dx-Series laser coders are claimed to be to be up to 30% faster than previous generation CO2 laser coders thanks to a new coding algorithm that enables faster, more exact coding of high-resolution codes, including machine-readable codes, while minimising stress on the substrate.
The full Dx-Series range encompasses the 20-watt Dx260i, 30-watt Dx360i, and 60-watt Dx660i, to satisfy the variable data printing requirements of manufacturers across industries, and on a diverse range of substrates from paper to glass.
The laser coders are designed to be integrated easily into existing production lines and can be adapted to meet the challenging demands of hot, dusty, or wet production environments.
Dx-Series laser coders are optimised for consistent performance at ambient temperatures of up to 45°C and come with the option of an IP65-rated printhead and an IP55-rated controller for dust and moisture protection.
Domino has also developed a range of advanced laser extraction solutions to remove fumes and particles from the laser coding process, ensuring optimal coding quality and increasing the lifetime of the laser equipment.
