1. CONTINUOUS INK JET (CIJ) SYSTEM
Printing without contact

2. WHAT IS CONTINUOUS INKJET SYSTEM?
 The Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) is used for the
Coding and Marking of Products or Packages in
the Market.
 The CIJ technology uses electrically charged ink
droplets for creating characters with high quality
based on grid formation.

3. HOW CIJ WORKS ?
 Using continuous ink jet, printed characters are
made up of individual ink drops.
 The feed motion of the product is used to spray
the numbers or letters one after the other onto the
product.
 This is called a non-contact process, i.e. without
contact with the product.
 Today, this method of marking is used most often
in the market for print expiry dates, like those
found on yoghurt pots or drinks bottles.

4. FORMATS & MATERIAL FOR CIJ SYSTEM
 The Continuous Inkjet Printers can print:
 Text
 Graphics
 Many Variable Data
 This CIJ technology can print on:
 Food
 Glass
 Plastic
 Metal
 Rubber

5. KEY BENEFITS OF CIJ SYSTEM
 Automatic self-cleaning print head guarantees that
the print nozzle stays unobstructed, even on
frequent start-stop production lines.
 Superior print head technology provides better drop
placement and print quality.
 High speed printing that keeps up with the fastest
production environments.
 Non-contact printing that enables uneven and
flexible surfaces to be coded.
 It Allows Product Identification (PI).
