Industrial labeling
Industrial marking for accurate and reliable identification
Industrial marking is crucial for traceability and product identification in many industries. At Inkit AB, we offer specialized solutions with inkjet technology, adapted for different materials and environments. Our inkjet printers, both piezo and thermal, are used in sawmills, cardboard production, pharmaceutical industries and more. We also offer labeling systems for metal cans and other complex applications, ensuring durable and clear markings.
What is industrial marking?
Industrial marking involves marking products or components in a way that allows traceability, identification and sometimes even branding. Marking can be carried out using a variety of techniques, depending on the material to be marked and the marking requirements. The most common materials to be marked are metal, plastic and paper.
Why is industrial marking important?
There are several reasons why companies invest in industrial labeling:
- Traceability and security: By marking products with serial numbers or barcodes, companies can ensure that all components can be traced at every stage of the production and distribution chain.
- Branding: Marking with logos and other visual elements strengthens brand identity and makes products recognizable.
- Quality assurance: Through permanent labeling, companies can reduce costs related to complaints by quickly tracking and fixing any sources of error.
Piezo inkjet printers use electrical impulses to eject ink droplets, providing high precision and suitable for materials such as wood and metal. Thermal inkjet printers heat the ink to create a marking, which is more suitable for paper and cardboard. Inkit AB offers both types to meet different needs in industrial marking.
Traceability ensures that products can be followed throughout the production chain, which is important for quality assurance and handling complaints. By marking products with barcodes or serial numbers, companies can quickly identify sources of errors and improve their productivity
The durability of industrial markings depends on factors such as the material used and the environment in which the products are used. Laser marking and inkjet printers such as those from Inkit AB provide lasting results that can withstand harsh environments such as high temperatures, moisture and chemicals.
