Markem-Imaje Launches the 9712 Bi-Jet Continuous Inkjet Printer

In a groundbreaking move for industrial printing, Markem-Imaje, a subsidiary of Dover Corporation, has launched its state-of-the-art 9712 Bi-Jet continuous inkjet (CIJ) printer. This innovative device is engineered specifically for industries such as construction, pharmaceuticals, and food manufacturing, where accurate printing of large codes and significant amounts of information is crucial.

Unifying Two Functions into One

The new 9712 model brilliantly consolidates the functions of two separate printing machines into a single unit. By doing so, it not only significantly reduces the capital investment required—potentially cutting upfront costs by half—but also helps lower operational expenses. Manufacturers can now enjoy high-quality printing without the added financial strain of maintaining multiple machines.

This dual-capacity feature allows the 9712 to print at twice the speed or with double the data volume, showcasing enhanced print capabilities that can transform production line efficiency. With its compact design and advanced Bi-Jet printhead technology, the printer ensures optimal font sizes while maintaining top-notch production performance.

Financial and Operational Advantages

One of the standout benefits of the 9712 printer is that it enables manufacturers to redirect capital to other essential aspects of their operations. Since many will only need a single printer instead of the conventional two CIJ printers, the savings can be substantial. Additionally, the decrease in equipment means fewer maintenance requirements, further simplifying plant operations.

Advanced Maintenance and Compatibility Features

The printer boasts several other advantages synonymous with Markem-Imaje’s CIJ offerings. Among these are industry-leading service intervals between significant preventive maintenance and the innovative Intelli'Swap® technology. This feature allows for synchronized part replacements and facilitates quick, efficient swaps of components, which minimizes downtime and reduces maintenance costs significantly when compared to rival products in the CIJ market.

Enhanced Performance Management

Equipped with the Intelli'Inks™ system, the 9712 printer ensures error-free performance and optimizes ink consumption while reducing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions. The accompanying Jet Speed Control technology automatically fine-tunes printer variables, including ink density and other critical factors, which guarantees superior drop placement, consistent quality, and reliable coding.

The integration of this new printer into existing Industry 4.0 systems is seamless, enhancing operational effectiveness. Companies will have access to a robust self-support solution aimed at minimizing downtime and achieving overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) objectives. This illustrates a commitment not just to productivity, but also to eco-friendly operations.

Conclusion

Markem-Imaje continues to pave the way for future innovations in production technologies. With the launch of the 9712 Bi-Jet continuous inkjet printer, the company demonstrates its dedication to providing advanced solutions that help industries navigate the complexities of modern manufacturing environments. Its focus on reducing costs, minimizing downtime, and improving product traceability is a welcome stride toward increasing overall operational performance.
