edding compact printer (TIJ)
Elried develops together with the edding AG the highly innovative series of compact printers. These are based without exception on the superior Thermal Inkjet or TIJ technology and are characterized in particular by high reliability and ease of use.
What are the advantages of Thermal Inkjet?
Thermal Inkjet is a highly innovative technology that can be used in almost all marking requirements.
- Very high reliability, no downtime
- Easy to use, requires no training
- Extensive integration options – Industry 4.0
- Ink type and color can be changed with one click
- Unique decap time of over 72 hours for solvent inks
What do thermal inkjet printers print on?
- Printing on nearly all surfaces: plastics, metal, glass, cardboard, wood, foil, rubber, paper, concrete, and many more
- Maximum print quality for logos, barcodes, lot numbers, batch codes, DataMatrix codes, QR codes, 2D codes and text
- Additional marking options such as serial numbers, production and manufacturing dates, CE marking, hazardous material labeling, customs and export marking, expiration and manufacturing dates, as well as line and equipment identification
How does a cartridge system / thermal inkjet work?
Thermal Inkjet, colloquially often called “cartridge system”, is a technology that goes back to the HP DeskJet printing systems. Here, the ink and print head are located in a common housing, the cartridge. The technology is now called Thermal Inkjet (TIJ), as printing is produced by heating the ink in the print head to a high temperature for a short time. Heating causes the ink to fire out of the print head, creating a print on the product. The systems are maintenance-free and easy to operate. In the past, they were used more in simple tasks. With its edding compact printers, edding/Elried in particular has brought this technology into the realm of high-performance industrial printing through extensive R&D.
