Videojet Technologies introduces new inkjet printer

Videojet Technologies’ new inkjet printer offers a durable, high-resolution solution for manufacturers and distributors with on-demand case coding requirements.

The Videojet 2380 delivers high-resolution printing of text, logos and bar codes on corrugated cardboard cases, cartons, shipping containers and other porous materials, according to a news release. The large character marking system is modular and self-cleaning, with two printheads allowing for coding of up to 5.5 inches in print height or on two sides of a case, according to the release.

The printheads required no additional hardware and are controlled by one touchscreen user interface separate from the print engine. The Videojet 2380 offers USB connectivity, has embedded Wi-Fi for remote access and analytical capabilities, and features seven ink colors.

An automatic micro-purge process can be programmed to clean the printhead nozzles at specific intervals without stopping the production line. Ink used in the purge process is recycled back into the system.

A gyroscopic sensor monitors the stainless steel printer’s mounting angle, helping to prevent ink leaks and to detect and record external impact signals.
