This application required replacing the stamping system to mark on plastic cup in a filling machine (butter-worth) with variable consumer information with a system which is clean, easy and fast to handle in the production.
• Marking area approx. 40 mm x 35 m
• Speed up to 30 steps a minute
• 2 or 4 lines of text, easy handling
After a demo the customer was changing the preprinted layout of the cover in the way to have a green background for the laser marking.
The difficulties were that with the standard font we got wholes in certain characters like the „8“ and others. Without a vacuum system we have a lot of dust coming from the green printed back surface going into to the plexi-glass protection, “damaging” the lens. The iCON unit is perfectly made for being integrated into packaging machines.
Electronic ready – end of marking signals are missing.
The result is a big improvement of the product marking, the customer is very happy for this clean (ink less), affordable and professional looking marking result.
