HITACHI – for innovative marking

INKJET PRINTERS

With an inkjet printer, you can print date and batch number markings, as well as more demanding barcodes and 2D codes, directly onto the product or packaging, with high resolution and at high production line speeds.

Inkjet printers are perfectly suited to the needs of the packaging and manufacturing industries, as they can print on most materials, including packaging film, liquid packaging board, wood, metal, plastic and glass. Inkjet printers can be easily integrated into both new and old production lines, and they are easy to update whenever your needs change.

Hitachi inkjet printers produce clear and high-quality markings on all surface materials, even in challenging conditions. Hitachi offers reliable inkjet printers designed for industrial needs and manufactured with more than 40 years of experience.

THE UX SERIES: FOR INNOVATIVE MARKING

Hitachi’s UX series inkjet printers perfectly match the needs of most production lines. The advanced printing technology, intuitive user interface, easy maintenance and durable design of the UX series ensure high-quality markings and extend the maintenance interval, thus increasing your production efficiency. Its low consumption of ink and solvent makes the UX series a cost-effective and environmentally friendly choice, as well.

THE HTJ SERIES: FOR HIGH-RESOLUTION PRINTING

The Hitachi HTJ series is specifically designed for printing high-resolution markings even at high speeds. With a high-resolution printer, you can produce clear, high-quality markings directly on, for example, individual products or product packages with plastic or cardboard surfaces.

HITACHI INDUSTRIAL LASER MARKERS

With laser marking systems, you can produce a precise and permanent marking optically – without colours, inks or solvents. You can create markings on almost all product and packaging materials, including stainless steel, aluminium, glass, plastic and acrylic surfaces, wood and packaging cardboard. Laser marking devices are easy to install, and their maintenance interval can be up to 100,000 hours.

Our laser markers are known for their high quality, innovative design and competitive prices. The devices can be integrated into existing production lines or purchased as individual workstations.

Our Hitachi LM series laser marking systems are intended for everyday use, and their low operating costs and long maintenance intervals make them universally applicable. Their practical design makes these CO2 laser marking devices flexible to use, and they can be easily integrated into production lines and higher level systems. When using Hitachi coding and marking systems, you have access to a global network of engineers and technicians, as well as expert advice from marking experts.

Hitachi Coding Software Suite (HCSS)

HCSS is a flexible browser-based software that allows you to design labels, monitor printers individually or in groups, access printer control panels and configure and manage automated printing processes.

Features and benefits of HSCC:

• The user interface is based on client/server architecture
• Install once – use anywhere and on any device via a web browser
• Powerful WYSIWYG designer for Hitachi Continuous Inkjet printers
• Manage or view individual printers or groups of several printers at once
• Intelligent print automation enables data retrieval locally or from a remote data source and automatic layout filling

Hitachi Vision System – quality control of the future

The Hitachi Vision System is versatile, easy to use and quick to start using. It checks and immediately eliminates print errors that visual inspections might miss. Due to its unique, adjustable inspection method, it also prevents unnecessary product rejection, resulting in significant savings. The Vision System also checks the quality of batch numbers and ensures that codes are clearly printed and easily legible.

The Hitachi Vision System is one of the few vision systems on the market that can interpret dot matrix printing. This offers several important advantages:

• Accurate reading of inkjet markings is possible regardless of printer brand
• The system examines each character to detect faulty coding
• It is possible to set a customizable threshold value for each application
