Coding on Shrink wrap

The KGK Jet CIJ (Continuous Inkjet) machine is commonly used for marking and coding applications in various industries, including food, beverage, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. When it comes to coding on shrink wraps, these machines provide reliable, high-quality printing that adheres well to flexible, often heat-sensitive materials like shrink films.

Advantage of KGK CIJ coding on shrink wrap

1. Non-contact Printing: CIJ technology is ideal for printing on shrink wraps because it allows for non-contact marking. The ink is sprayed onto the surface, making it perfect for flexible and irregularly shaped packages like shrink wraps.

2. Ink Adhesion: The choice of ink is crucial when printing on shrink wrap. CIJ printers like the KGK Jet offer a variety of ink types, including quick-drying inks, which ensure that the coding remains legible and durable even on plastic shrink films.

3. Temperature Sensitivity: Shrink wrap is often applied using heat, and the ink used for coding must be able to withstand the heat-shrinking process without smudging or fading. The KGK CIJ machines typically support heat-resistant inks designed for such applications.

4. Flexible Integration: KGK Jet CIJ printers are designed for easy integration into existing production lines, including those using shrink-wrapping processes. They can be mounted over conveyor belts or integrated into automated packaging systems.

5. High-Speed Printing: The KGK Jet CIJ is capable of coding at high speeds, which is ideal for industries where shrink wrap is applied at a fast pace, ensuring that coding does not slow down production.

6. Multiple Surfaces: CIJ machines are versatile and can print on a wide variety of surfaces. When coding on shrink wraps, they can print batch numbers, barcodes, manufacturing dates, or logos on the film, regardless of its flexibility or curvature.
