Domino - Coder

• Applying batch codes, expiry dates, and serial numbers to individual products or packaging.
• Marking products in food and beverage production for traceability and regulatory compliance.
• Coding pharmaceuticals and medical devices with essential information.
• Labelling industrial components and electronics with manufacturing data.

Typical throughput

Units of this type commonly achieve speeds suitable for high-volume production lines, typically ranging from tens to hundreds of products per minute, depending on the specific model and application.

Power supply

Coders typically require a standard single-phase electrical supply, commonly 230V, 50Hz in the UK, with specific amperage requirements varying by model.

Coding technology

Domino coders often utilise Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) technology, suitable for printing on a wide range of substrates, or Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) for high-resolution printing on porous and non-porous materials.

Printable characters

These units are typically capable of printing alphanumeric characters, barcodes, 2D codes (e.g., Data Matrix), and custom logos.

Substrate compatibility

Commonly compatible with various materials including plastics, glass, metal, paper, and cardboard, depending on the ink type and printhead configuration.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, coders typically have a compact footprint, designed for integration into existing production lines, with dimensions varying based on the printhead and controller unit.

Used labeling machines remain reliable workhorses in food processing operations. Buyers typically prioritise machines with proven track records from established manufacturers and those requiring minimal tooling changeover. Key considerations include label application accuracy, speed capabilities, and spare parts availability. Industry sentiment favours machines in good mechanical condition with clear maintenance histories. Common strengths noted include straightforward operation, robust construction, and adaptability to various label formats and container types. Purchasing decisions often centre on total cost of ownership and compatibility with existing production lines.
