Contract packer, Cedesa, has
bought two Linx CJ400
continuous ink jet (CIJ)
printers after successfully
trialling the machines for over
a year. Cedesa has installed
the printers on a horizontal,
semi-automated glue filler
line, which operates for up to
eight hours a day, five days a
week, coding 10 items per
minute.

Linx T551 Black high speed
ink is being used to print on
code onto painted metal tubes
of glue. This fast-drying Linx
ink also offers good chemical
resistance, which is crucial in
this application.

The Linx CJ400 is said to
be versatile, simple to own
and easy to use. It offers
customers three-month
intervals between printhead
cleaning and is highly
portable, weighing only
13.5kg.

The Linx Easi-Change
Service Module can be
changed in minutes using onscreen
prompts. This means
scheduled maintenance is
easily completed without the
need for a trained technician
or costly service calls.
