The Hitachi UX-H140W inkjet printer has been designed for high-speed coding applications, with a maximum printing speed up to 30% higher than the previous model. The printer is suitable for marking beverage containers on high-speed bottling lines with a quoted maximum speed of 650 mpm.
Applications in the beverage industry where the benefits of higher speed and higher quality printing can be realised include PET carbonated soft drink, glass beer and wine bottles, and aluminium beverage cans.
The product supports the Hitachi general-purpose black marking inks. A high-adhesion white pigment ink is also available.
The inkjet printer can be programmed to print one or two lines of text, including calendar and count features. With 48 µm nozzle size, a text height of 3.5 mm is achieved.
The device joins the comprehensive range of advanced UX inkjet printers by Hitachi, each featuring WYSIWYG message design, a 10.4″ TFT colour LCD touch panel and an environment protection rating of IP65.
For general marking applications, Hitachi also offers the UX-E model. ‘E’ designates this model as the most efficient, with just 2.5 mL of solvent use per hour subject to conditions of ink type and ambient temperature.
