What type of inkjet printer is better for printing on the bottle cap?

Each bottle cap must be printed with information such as shelf life and batch number on its product packaging; retailers check this information to determine inventory turnover, and consumers use this information to check the freshness of the product. However, the information required for printing is not as simple as it sounds-many factors must be considered when selecting the appropriate coding equipment for a particular bottle cap. 1. Print on different materials. Marking on the surface of various materials, the material of the bottle cap is different, and the type of inkjet or laser marking machine used is also different. At present, the material of bottle caps is mainly PP/PE plastic and tinplate. If you choose inkjet printer to realize the marking, Delico recommends using special high adhesion ink to complete it. If you choose a laser marking machine to achieve product identification, Delico recommends to conduct a proofing test first to determine the type of laser marking machine (optical fiber/CO2). 2. Printing quality. Use inkjet printers to mark the production date, batch number and other content of the product. Obtaining a clear and high-quality logo, and printing quality is obviously a concern for manufacturers. The content requirements of the logo are complex and diverse. Numbers, words, symbols, logos, etc. must be identified and matched with the packaging of the goods. If an ink jet printer is used, there needs to be a type of ink jet printer suitable for different coding requirements. If laser marking technology is used, it is necessary to choose a laser marking machine that can adjust contrast, sharpness, height, etc., and obtain accurate and high-quality marking effects. 3. Production line speed. Bottle cap printing and production line speed are the issues that must be considered when choosing a printing machine. Taking the beverage industry as an example, the filling line has a large production volume, with a high speed of up to 36,000 bottles per hour. Therefore, it is necessary to select equipment that can adapt to these high-speed production lines for high-speed coding. Only by choosing a high-speed printer for ink jet printers can the marking requirements be guaranteed. The laser marking machine should choose a high-power flying laser machine to complete. In the process of purchasing bottle cap inkjet printers, only by considering the material of bottle cap, printing quality and speed, can you choose the marking equipment you like.
