Domino: thermal inkjet for flexible packaging
Gx 3T, Domino’s new solution, offers an alternative to traditional thermal transfer printing
Exhibitor at ALL4PACK EMBALLAGE PARIS, Domino announces the launch of a new thermal inkjet (TIJ) solution designed specifically for flexible packaging lines.
‘Domino’s new Gx 3T solution has been developed as an efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional thermal transfer printing (TTO) for flexible packaging lines requiring simple text codes printed on 1, 2 or 4 lines and small 2D codes up to 10mm2,’ explains Domino, which points out that the new solution has been extensively tested on test sites whose needs for simple text codes were met by existing TTO technologies.
Return on investment in one year
To illustrate the effectiveness of its new solution, Domino quotes a customer from a major food brand: ‘ With the Gx 3T solution, we have gone from changing consumables twice per shift to once every four days – which has considerably reduced the number of line stoppages and helped increase overall productivity.
A positive testimonial that Domino extends in an extended calculation: ‘ In one costing example, Domino’s Gx 3T solution saved up to 95% waste and 70% consumables and downtime compared to standard TTO solutions for printing 1 and 2 line text codes, and 4 line text codes using two printheads. These impressive figures mean that manufacturers opting for Domino’s solution, compared to an existing TTO solution, can expect a return on investment in just 12 months.’
