What is (CIJ) Continuous Inkjet Printing?
A Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) printer by Videojet is an industrial printer designed to print on various surfaces without ever touching the product. The core of a CIJ printer is its ability to propel ink from a reservoir through a nozzle, forming a consistent stream. This stream is finely divided into uniform droplets at high speed. As these droplets are formed, they are individually charged and then guided through an electrostatic field that can precisely deflect them onto a substrate.
What are the benefits of (CIJ) Continuous Inkjet Printing?
This advanced process allows the CIJ printer to swiftly and accurately apply a wide range of texts, such as expiration dates, lot numbers, and even intricate images or barcodes, onto a product or package. The CIJ printer’s ability to control the flight path of each droplet with pinpoint accuracy results in clear, readable markings essential for product traceability and quality control.
Videojet’s CIJ printers are designed with efficiency in mind. Ink droplets that are not used for the printing process are recaptured, ensuring minimal wastage and cost-effectiveness. They are then redirected back into the system, ready to be utilised for the next round of printing.
