Markem-Imaje launches the 9028, a new inkjet printer offering simplicity and autonomy

In particular, the new 9028 printer has been fitted with a completely rethought ink circuit (M6'') that can operate non-stop for over 2 years*. Clean, practical and easily recyclable, the M6'' ink circuit can be replaced by operators themselves, in less than 6 minutes, by simply clicking it out and in with a single, supplied tool. An alarm system offers a high degree of flexibility where replacement programming is concerned. Last but not least – 15% less additive consumption.

At the consumable level, new inks are available: a range of high-adhesion inks for the most difficult substrates to be marked, a MEK-free quick-drying ink and a permanent ink. Consumables are presented in new sealed cartridges which display the quantity remaining with greater precision. Easy-to-handle cartridges are quick and clean to replace, without stopping production operations. Finally, cartridges from other Markem-Imaje CIJ printers are completely compatible and can be used in the 9028 model.

The 9028 printer has been designed to plug and print. A latest-generation system of printhead cleaning ensures instant daily startups and trouble-free restarts, even after several weeks of downtime. It is operational just a few minutes after installation. Finally, a stainless steel stand and an IP55 protection rating ensure that the 9028 printer can be installed in the toughest manufacturing environments, without any specific installation requirements.

* On the basis of an annual operating time of 3,000 hours

Finally, as a worthy successor to the 9020 printer, the 9028 model codes most substrates (cardboard, plastic, metal...), prints up to 4 lines of data and can reach a speed of 4.4 m/s. Its user-friendly, intuitive interface can efficiently guide operators in their daily operations with total autonomy.
