How to Select Inkjet Printer According to Packaging Material
2021-10-15 cycjetcoder.com
With the development of economy, the development of inkjet printer industry is getting better and better. I believe you are very familiar with the code spraying marks on various product packages. However, I don't know if you have noticed that different products, different materials and different industries have different inkjet marks. Some are dot shaped small character inkjet, and some have obvious concave convex feeling. In fact, these are the inkjet effects of different inkjet machines.
These are the reasons why manufacturers choose different inkjet printers according to the different packaging of their products. Different materials have different printing effects. Let's analyze what types of products and materials are suitable for laser printer and inkjet printer.
Now the market share of laser printer is higher and higher. Laser printer includes UV laser marking machine, optical fiber laser marking machine and CO2 laser marking machine. In fact, laser printer is suitable for a wide range of material types, but these three laser printers have their own best fields.
1. Ultraviolet laser marking machine
UV laser marking machine belongs to "cold processing", which is special in laser marking processing, because it is not thermal ablation, but cold stripping that does not produce "thermal damage" side effects and breaks chemical bonds, so it does not produce heating or thermal deformation on the surface of the processed material. The processed material has smooth edges and very low carbonization.
This characteristic of almost no damage to materials makes the application range of UV laser marking machine wider than fiber laser marking machine and CO2 laser marking machine, which is very suitable for ultra-fine inkjet. It is especially suitable for food, medical industry, skin care products and other industries. Because there is no "thermal damage", its code spraying effect on light and thin materials is also very excellent.
2. Optical fiber laser marking machine
Optical fiber laser marking machine is a kind of marking equipment which can make the surface substance change physically or chemically by beating the laser beam on the surface of various substances, so as to engrave permanent marks such as patterns, trademarks and words. Its biggest feature is that it is suitable for most metal materials and some non-metallic materials. If your product package is made of metal, the optical fiber laser marking machine is the best choice.
Carbon dioxide laser is a kind of molecular laser. The main substance is carbon dioxide molecule, which can represent a variety of energy states, depending on its vibration and rotation. The CO2 laser marking machine generates contact reaction between CO2 molecules and product medium to form a permanent mark on the product surface. I believe everyone has noticed the inkjet code on the mineral water bottle or edible oil bottle. The inkjet of CO2 laser marking machine belongs to "hot processing", so its inkjet is that kind of texture full of concave convex feeling. CO2 laser marking machine has very good inkjet effect on wood, purple box, leather, beverage bottle and other materials.
The three laser printers mentioned above have the characteristics of exquisite inkjet effect, environmental protection and no consumables. Under the background of global advocacy of environmental protection and people's love for exquisite product packaging, the market share of laser printer is also higher and higher.
As the name suggests, inkjet printer needs ink as consumables. Its working principle is that under the action of pressure, the ink enters the spray gun. The spray gun is equipped with a crystal vibrator. Through vibration, the ink ejects to form a fixed interval point. Through CPU processing and phase tracking, some ink points of the charging electrode are charged with different electric cores. After several kilovolts of high-voltage magnetic field, different offsets occur, fly out of the spray nozzle and fall on the moving product surface, Forming a lattice, To form words, numbers or graphics. Because the inkjet printer does no harm to the packaging material, it has a wider scope of application and less limitations. However, because it is coded by ink, its inkjet is not tamperable and erasable like the laser inkjet; The beauty and fineness of inkjet are not as good as laser inkjet. But generally, the price of inkjet printer is obviously more favorable than that of inkjet printer.
