The Solaris eMark is an entry-level laser coding package, just released by Matthews Intelligent Identification in Australia.
The new coder is perfect for low volume manufacturers who want the benefits of laser coding at an economical price.
Key facts:
- most inexpensive vector laser system on the market for permanent marking/coding
- ideal for use in food, beverage and pharmaceuticals
- high quality vector codes in stationary and ‘on the fly’ operation
- capable of all types of marks
- easily integrated with new and existing production lines
- simple local and remote system control
- can code on to a range of substrates, including: coated paper, cardboard, PVC, PET and coated metal
This laser, an affordable system in one compact package, is ideal for marking various food, beverage and pharmaceutical materials.
Matt Nichol, a laser specialist with Matthews, says the eMark is perfect for the low-end user.
“Businesses that have found this useful are the small enterprises, up to medium-sized ones, who have slow to medium applications but want the benefits that laser technology offers.”
Nichol says a key benefit of lasers is that they are easy to use and easy for small to medium-sized businesses to integrate.
“Their cost benefits include not needing consumables, or ongoing maintenance.”
This latest addition to Matthews' popular laser range makes laser coding much more accessible for small businesses.
“This new eMark can code onto a host of substrates, including coated paper and cardboard, PVC, PET, general plastics and coated metal," Nichol says.
"It’s capable of vector-quality codes in stationery and ‘on the fly’ operation, plus can reproduce all types of marks: alphanumerical texts — such as dates and times — serial numbers, bar codes, 2D codes, graphics, and so on.”
Multiple I/O signals and field-configurable beam exit direction mean that the Solaris eMark is easily integrated into new or existing production lines, and it has a simple local and remote system control via USB, network and WiFi module.
Matthews is more than happy to sample mark material to check suitability for this technology.
