In the highly competitive and strictly regulated food industry, every production link is of vital importance. Among them, clearly and accurately printing production dates, shelf life, batch numbers and other information on product packaging is not only a mandatory requirement of regulations, but also the cornerstone for building brand trust and ensuring consumer safety. However, traditional labeling or low-speed inkjet coding methods often become bottlenecks for high-speed production lines. Therefore, an online inkjet printer application solution that can simultaneously meet strict compliance requirements and extremely high production speeds has become an essential need for modern food enterprises.

Challenge: Unique requirements for inkjet coding in the food industry

1、Strict regulatory compliance: Regulations around the world (such as China's GB 7718, the United States' FDA standards, and the European Union's EU1169) have clear requirements for the clarity, durability, location, and readability of the content marked. Incorrect, ambiguous or missing information may all lead to serious legal disputes and brand crises.

2、Extremely high production speed: Production lines for beverages, dairy products, snack foods, etc. are extremely fast, capable of processing hundreds or even thousands of products per minute. The inkjet coding equipment must be able to keep up synchronously without delay or omission.

3、Complex production environment: The production line environment may be filled with water vapor, oil stains, low or high temperatures. The inkjet coding equipment needs to have a sufficient protection level (such as IP65 or above) to operate stably.

4、Diverse packaging materials: from plastic film, glass bottles to metal cans and paper boxes, different surfaces have different requirements for ink adhesion, and it is necessary to match the appropriate inkjet coding technology and ink.

Solution: The core advantages of DminKjet professional online inkjet printers

In response to the above challenges, DminKjet offers an integrated online coding solution to ensure that your production line is both compliant and efficient.

1、Ensure compliance and excellent printing quality

• High-resolution inkjet printing: Our online inkjet printers can achieve a printing quality of up to 600 dpi, ensuring that information such as dates, batches, and QR codes is sharp and clear. Even on small packages, it is immediately visible and can easily pass various quality inspections.
• Specialized food-grade ink: We offer a full range of food-grade inks, including environmentally friendly inks that meet EU and FDA standards. These inks have excellent adhesion and can resist condensation, ice water immersion and slight friction, ensuring the integrity of information throughout the entire process from the production line to the shelves.
• Intelligent content management system: Equipped with powerful software, it can easily create and manage inkjet content templates that comply with regulatory requirements. It supports multiple languages, symbols, and dynamic data (such as time and serial numbers), eliminating human input errors.

• Ultra-high-speed inkjet printing: The DminKjet online inkjet printer features an extremely fast printing frequency, capable of easily handling production environments with a line speed exceeding 1000 meters per minute, ensuring perfect printing on every package passing through at high speed without any trailing.
• Outstanding stability: The industrial-grade design ensures the equipment operates continuously and stably for 7x24 hours, with an extremely long mean time between failures, minimizing the downtime losses caused by equipment malfunctions to the greatest extent.

• Qr code/barcode printing: In addition to basic information, we strongly recommend that you print QR codes. This will endow each product with a unique "digital ID card", achieving full-chain traceability from raw materials, production, warehousing to logistics. When quality problems occur, they can be quickly located and precisely recalled to minimize losses to the greatest extent.
• Industry 4.0 ready: The equipment supports network connection and remote monitoring. You can easily view the operation status, ink remaining and printing content of multiple inkjet printers in the office, achieving intelligent and digital factory management.

How to choose the right online inkjet printer for your food industry?

1、Confirm the speed and precision requirements of the production line.

2、Clarify your packaging material and the type of ink you need.

3、Check whether the protection level of the equipment is suitable for your workshop environment.

4、Choose a supplier like DminKjet that can provide localized technical support and compliance consultation.

In the food industry, online coding is far more than just "coding"; it is a crucial link in ensuring safety, enhancing efficiency, and achieving intelligent manufacturing. Choosing a professional inkjet coding solution that takes compliance as the bottom line and high speed as the benchmark is a wise investment for the stable development of your enterprise.
