Quick on the mark

Linx Printing Technologies has supplied its Linx 7300 Continuous Ink Jet (CIJ) printer to contract packer MPF Group for the coding and marking of a variety of consumer items ranging from foods to wet wipes.

The Linx 7300 can change codes quickly between different products and customers. "Templates can be saved to the system so that job selection can be achieved within seconds, and new details can be added via integral USB port for guaranteed accuracy," explains Ian Wright, MPF's managing director.

Another feature is the design of the coder's apertures for ink and solvent bottles which are different shapes to prevent the risk of incorrect loading.

With the majority of MPF's operation done manually, the Linx 7300 can accommodate the average 20-25 packs per minute.
