High-speed industrial codingIndustrial inkjet printers for continuous production
Apply dependable date, batch and production codes at line speed across packaging, containers, cables and manufactured products.
Application-led specification
Designed around the process that must work.
Continuous inkjet is a flexible choice where products move quickly, surfaces vary or the printhead must operate at a practical stand-off. We specify the printer, ink, mounting, detection and message control as one production-ready package.
What this deliversA coding solution matched to your real substrate, line speed and available print window.

Typical applications
Where it earns its place.
Cartons, trays and cases
Cable, extrusion and building products
Components with curved or irregular presentation
A complete project scope
From feasibility to a supported production system.
The precise work package is shaped around the application. These are the four areas we normally resolve.
Substrate and adhesion trials
Establish the evidence needed to select and size the technology.
Print-position and message assessment
Turn the proven application into a clear technical specification.
Mounting, guarding and extraction review
Engineer safe, maintainable presentation and production control.
Installation, operator setup and code control
Connect, commission and prove the agreed operating sequence.
Build verification in
Identification should close the loop.
Where the process demands it, the system can check that the correct identity was created, confirm it is readable and associate the result with the production event.
- Presence and content checks
- Barcode, RFID or DPM read-back
- Reject, rework and exception handling
- Result and audit-record capture
Frequently asked questions
Industrial inkjet printers: practical questions.
Every application is different, but these answers cover useful starting points.
What is CIJ best suited to?+
CIJ is well suited to fast, continuous production and can print on many shapes and substrates with a useful distance between printhead and product.
Can you test our product before specification?+
Yes. Representative products and the actual surface condition allow us to assess adhesion, contrast, drying and code legibility.
Can messages be controlled centrally?+
Yes. Depending on the wider system, message selection and variable data can be linked to line recipes, scanners, production orders or enterprise software.
