Continuous Inkjet Coding Printer
Product reference: MCH-00789
The 1660 small-character coder targets high-speed applications with an emphasis on uptime and maintenance costs. The source states that the 1660 has a core targeting five years between planned wear-part replacements (2); operating conditions require confirmation. Productivity and code-checking tools help reduce downtime and errors and improve OEE.
- Containers and print media
- Bottles & containers
The printing or labeling system is selected for the application surface, code or label size, and production line speed.
Details & features
Continuous inkjet printer with a long-life core for high-speed applications.
Dynamic calibration automatically adjusts jetting parameters to maintain print quality.
Print from 1 to 5 lines of text at high speeds:
Single line max speed = 293 m/min (960 ft/min)
Dual line max speed = 146 m/min (480 ft/min)
Tri-line max speed = 81 m/min (265 ft/min)
Printhead technology resists ink buildup that can interrupt conventional inkjet printers.
The source states a target of five years between scheduled wear-part replacements (1); warranty terms are not confirmed.
Internal pump means no external air, minimizing potential for contaminants to enter ink stream
Auto cleaning printhead for fast start-ups even after extended shutdowns
Make-up consumption as low as 2.4 ml/hour
Intelligent cartridge fluid delivery reduces spills and helps ensure the correct fluids are used.
Advanced software minimizes and mistake-proofs operator inputs to the coding and marking process to help reduce errors
Operator inputs are governed by rules which simplifies choices via field prompts, drop-down menus, calendar displays and predefined formats to help ensure correct entries
Bright, 264 mm (10.4 in) touchscreen interface that provides real-time fluid levels, maintenance alerts, print jobs and other operational information
Instant fault information is displayed to get your printer and line running again – fast
Drill down into Printer Availability data to discover technical and operational causes of downtime, get to the root cause of downtime events and fix them for good
