Flexibility

Linx’s range of printers have options to code onto almost any substrate. Primary and secondary packaging can both be coded in one facility, giving co-packers flexibility to keep production moving in-house. Whether a manufacturer is looking for permanent printing solutions or even food-grade inks, Linx industrial marking printers help co-packers adjust to changing customer printing applications.

Ease-Of-Use

Quick and accurate set-up, on-screen service guides, and self-installation are some of the key features that keep Linx’s advanced printing technology user-friendly. With touchscreens standard on all printers, message creation, printing, and routine servicing is kept simple for contract packaging manufacturers.

Low Cost of Ownership

Meet production targets without costly regular maintenance or downtime through extended service intervals. Linx printers only need to be serviced up to once every two years. Keep your printer running, meet customer deadlines, and save money through improved use of consumables.

Printing on the Bottom of Bottles

Our Continuous Inkjet print head can be mounted in any 360° direction due to
the flexible conduit. The 8900 model can be configured with multiple production lines, making it easy to change setups
and getting the machine printing quickly again after movement.
