Industrial-grade Inkjet Printer T16 - All-aluminum housing, dust and shock proof

In today's fast-paced industrial production, reliable, efficient, and adaptable large character inkjet printing is crucial. The T16 Series All-Aluminum Shell DOD Inkjet Printer is engineered for this very purpose, combining a rugged design with advanced inkjet technology to deliver superior printing performance and stability across various industries.

1. Rugged All-Aluminum Shell Construction
The T16 series features a full aluminum alloy shell, providing more than just a modern industrial aesthetic. It offers exceptional protection against dust, oil, and minor impacts common in harsh factory environments. This robust build ensures long-term, stable operation and significantly extends the equipment's lifespan, reducing total cost of ownership.

2. Reliable DOD (Drop-On-Demand) Inkjet Technology
Utilizing advanced DOD technology, ink drops are generated on demand, ensuring precise control. This delivers several key benefits:

• High Clarity: Produces sharp, legible, and durable codes, even at high production line speeds.

• High Speed: Achieves maximum printing speeds of up to 60 meters per minute, meeting the demands of most high-speed production lines.

• High Efficiency: On-demand printing significantly reduces ink waste, lowering your operational costs.

3. Flexible Ink and Printhead Configuration

• Dual Cartridge System: Operators can choose between ketone-based or water-based ink cartridges based on substrate material (e.g., cardboard, metal, plastic) and required drying speed, ensuring optimal adhesion and performance.

• Two Printhead Options:

  • T16-107 (7 Nozzle): With a print height of 10-20mm, this model is a cost-effective solution ideal for printing batch numbers, expiration dates, medium-small characters, and simple 1D barcodes. Perfect for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.

  • T16-207 (16 Nozzle): Offering a larger print height of 25-50mm, this model supports large characters, multi-line messages, and complex graphics like large barcodes and QR codes. It meets the needs of the construction, chemical, and logistics sectors.

4. User-Friendly Operation and Interface

• 7-inch Capacitive Touchscreen: A responsive and intuitive interface makes operation simple, minimizing training time and potential errors.

• Powerful Editing Features: Supports multiple TTF fonts (Arial, SimSun, etc.) and dot matrix fonts. It can print bitmap images and includes counter and time/date (with seconds) variables, making it easy to handle "best before" dates and sequential numbering.

• Easy Data Import: Use a USB drive to directly import .TXT and .XLSX files for batch content updates, saving significant time.

• Ample Storage: Features 3GB of usable storage space and supports message lengths of up to 2 meters.

5. Seamless Integration
Equipped with an RS232 interface and an open communication protocol, the T16 can be easily integrated with PLCs, computers, or main production line control systems for automated operation.

• Food & Beverage: Printing production dates, expiry dates, and lot numbers on outer cartons.

• Pharmaceutical & Medical: Marking batch numbers and expiration dates to comply with traceability requirements.

• Construction & Chemicals: Printing specifications, model numbers, and logos on pipes, panels, and other products.

• Logistics & Warehousing: Coding shipping codes, QR codes, and zone identification on parcels and shelving.

• Electronics & Light Industry: Printing model numbers, serial numbers, and certification marks on products or their packaging.

Q1: What is the main difference between the T16-107 and T16-207 models?
A1: The primary difference is the print height range. The T16-107 is designed for small to medium characters (10-20mm), while the T16-207 is for large characters and complex graphics (25-50mm). Choose based on the size requirement of your product identification.

Q2: How do I choose between ketone-based and water-based ink?
A2: Ketone-based ink dries quickly and has strong adhesion, making it suitable for non-porous surfaces like plastics and metals. Water-based ink is more environmentally friendly and is ideal for porous surfaces like cardboard and wood. Select based on your product material and factory environment.

Q3: Is the printer easy to integrate with our existing production line?
A3: Yes. The T16 series comes with a standard RS232 communication interface and an open communication protocol, allowing for easy connection with PLCs, computers, or production line control systems for automated coding.

Q4: How is the print height adjusted?
A4: The T16 series features a rotating printhead. The printing height on the product is easily adjusted by physically rotating the head, making the process straightforward.
