Continuous Inkjet Printers / Case Coder
KEYENCE's lineup of continuous inkjet printers includes the MK-G Series for all types of objects such as individual packages, containers, cartons, bottles, construction materials, and electronic components, as well as the CC-1000 Series for printing on corrugated cardboard and kraft bags. We offer the best model for each customer's application.
Products Lineup
MK-G Series is the world's first self-troubleshooting continuous inkjet printer that completely eliminates the guesswork of inkjet maintenance and can be operated without any specialised product knowledge or skills. By incorporating KEYENCE sensor technologies to enhance self-diagnostic capabilities, the new MK-G Series can automatically perform maintenance and troubleshooting on its own – just like how a trained inkjet technician would. The unit features new functions that ensure automatic cleaning is performed every time before shutdown even when the power is disrupted, and allow users to check the status and perform operations on the printer remotely from a PC or Smartphone.
Features
Hands-free Cleaning [Auto-shower Cleaning]
The auto-shower cleaning function of the MK-G Series cleans not only the ink path but also all components necessary for maintaining print quality. Suction during cleaning also helps to reduce odors. After cleaning is complete, the built-in blower automatically dries the head.
Conventional head cleaning
Manual cleaning was required to wash residual ink off the inside of the head.
Auto-shower cleaning
In addition to cleaning the ink paths, the key parts of the head are also subject to high-pressure cleaning. This negates the need for manual cleaning.
Self-diagnosis Followed by Automatic Cleaning When Necessary
Smart Startup
To start the MK-G Series, simply press the Smart Startup button. The printer will automatically obtain the device status and select the necessary cleaning method. Cleaning is performed only when required and the minimum amount of solvent is used, significantly reducing running costs.
MK-G enables self-diagnosis and cleaning to ensure stable startup.
KEYENCE has been an innovative leader in the inkjet printing industry since the early 1990s. By integrating KEYENCE’s proprietary sensors and machine vision technologies, CC-1000 Series solve conventional box printing challenges, simplify setup and maintenance, and ensure superior print quality and reliability.
Features
Consistent Print Technology
Best-in-class High-Resolution & Long Throw Distance Printhead
The long working distance prevents ink splashback and head collisions, while the increased DPI ensures flawless, stable printing, overcoming nozzle clogging problems common in traditional coding technologies.
Multi-Sensing Unit
The CC-1000 Series’ multi-sensing unit simplifies complex setup and ensures consistent printing regardless of the application. The multi-sensors automatically adjust printing to compensate for changes in conveyor speed, line buildup, product variations and target distance. The system will also alert the user in the event of excessive vibrations and product collisions with the printhead.
