Industrial design developed for APPEXAN
The inkjet printing machine is designed to mark expiration dates on sauce cups in a fast and efficient manner. The system uses non-contact inkjet technology to print directly onto moving cups, ensuring clear, legible, and consistent markings without interrupting the production flow.
Objectives: Ensure clear and accurate printing of expiration dates; maintain consistent print quality at high production speeds; improve efficiency in packaging lines.
Challenges: Achieving precise print alignment on moving cups; maintaining print clarity on different cup materials and surfaces; preventing ink smudging during high-speed operation; synchronizing printing with conveyor motion.
