Cut Maintenance Costs & Boost Efficiency After Seasonal Shutdowns

A significant challenge in marking and coding equipment for manufacturing is sustaining operational efficiency during seasonal production shifts or temporary plant shutdowns. For example, beverage demand typically drops in the winter, while the agrochemical industry faces similar off-season slowdowns that may lead to temporary shutdowns.

A prolonged shutdown can result in ink drying in the print-nozzles, this demands additional maintenance before the next production run, means increased maintenance costs.

KGK Jet CIJ machine has engineered Auto clean feature, designed to enhance operational efficiency and reduce the need for service, especially after long shutdown periods.

Here's how it works:

Auto Start: Designed to start the machine immediately even if machine is not operated for very long time. As per set schedule time, machine will start automatically and calibrate parameters like fluid viscosity & ink delivery systems, ensuring that the nozzle is clean and ready for printing. This helps in preventing issues like nozzle clogging or ink drying.

Auto Stop: Prior to schedule shut down, KGK Jet CIJ machine automatically caps the print nozzle. This action helps prevent ink from drying and clogging the printhead, which could otherwise necessitate visit by service engineer.

Benefits of Auto Strat & Stop Feature

1. Ink and Solvent Conservation

Minimized Waste: The machine only operates when needed, reducing the unnecessary consumption of ink and solvent, which can happen when machines are left running idle for long periods.

Cost Savings: Efficient use of ink and solvents leads to reduced operational costs over time, as wastage is minimized.

2. Increased Equipment Longevity

Optimized Usage: Automatically stopping the machine when not in use reduces wear and tear on the components, prolonging the machine's operational life.

Less Frequent Maintenance: Controlled operational time reduces the strain on critical components, leading to lower maintenance frequency and fewer breakdowns.

3. Operational Efficiency

The Auto Start & Stop feature minimizes operator workload by enabling machines to be programmed to start or stop at a designated time. This helps conserve valuable operational hours and allows operators to focus on more critical tasks, ultimately improving efficiency.

4. Enhanced Print Quality

Auto start & stop ensures that the machine operates under optimal conditions, contributing to consistent print quality by preventing drying of ink in the nozzle or misprints due to improper shutdown.

5. Energy Savings

The machine only consumes energy when needed, reducing power usage during idle times. This not only cuts costs but also helps businesses reduce their environmental footprint.

In summary, Auto start & stop feature in KGK Jet CIJ machines ensuring more reliable operation, reduce maintenance cost and better machine longevity.
