Japanese Baby Care Brand Discovered KGK Jet Best Fit for Carton Coding

Japanese manufacturer of disposable hygiene , household cleaning products, specializing in the manufacture of diapers for both babies and adult incontinence, feminine hygiene products and pet care products.

Reasons for choosing HQC: 

• Compact & Efficient: HQC printers are compact in size and can be mounted on box taping machine to ensure the printers do not take up extra space and create efficiency enabling two processes to be performed at same time.
• Most Economical: Customer need to print Lot number, Packaging date & Time  on corrugated shipping boxes. Printing variable data directly onto boxes can eliminate the need for multiple types of preprinted boxes and labels.
  
• Fade resistance ink : The customer's products are sold via multiple channels. The code on the shipping package should withstand rough storage conditions and harsh weather. KGK oil-based inks are suitable for porous substrates that are able to handle moisture and prolonged exposure to sunlight.
  
• Integration: HQC machines can be interconnected for data transfer. Possible to integrate with customer's ERP using special application software.
• Most handy coder: Operators can set pre programs menu for automatic coding using simple & efficient functions in HQC user interface. 
  

Key benefits of HQC:

Lightweight & compact body: Compact all-in-one design & possible to mount on packaging machines or conveyor belts, makes it easy to retrofit into existing lines. 

Feature rich yet economical:  "Master-Slave Function" allows two units to be controlled simultaneously. Connect laptop or two HQC units together using communication cable for flawless data transfer. 

Value for money: 

• HQC efficiency is further enhanced by variant of separate printhead which can be position to code top of the box. 
• Print head equipped with inbuilt product sensor, with option of external sensor which can be connected using I/O output.
• Large LCD screen displays with clear characters and operation buttons are  color-coded for error free operations.
