Overview
The TIJ T180 is a compact, industrial-grade Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) coding and marking printer engineered for direct integration into production lines and conveyor systems. Designed for clear, high-resolution printing, it offers an efficient, low-maintenance alternative to traditional continuous inkjet (CIJ) systems for primary packaging and secondary carton marking.
Core Applications & Capabilities
Print Content: Batch numbers, manufacturing and expiry dates, real-time clocks, counters, barcodes, QR codes, logos, and custom text.
Supported Substrates:
Porous: Cardboard, cartons, kraft paper, wood, corrugated boxes.
Non-Porous: Plastic bottles, pouches, aluminum foil, glass, coated metals (using quick-drying solvent inks).
Mounting & Deployment: Mounts directly beside or above packaging conveyors, automated carton sealers, or friction feeders.
