If you are looking for a versatile, reliable and economical continuous inkjet (CIJ) printer for your commercial marking and coding applications, the Hitachi UX2 series can be a perfect choice.
This industrial small character high-speed printer is designed to provide high-quality non-contact marking for a variety of different applications and materials. The series includes entry-level and fully-featured configurations, and has become a popular choice for industrial use thanks to its flexible, intuitive design and eco-friendly performance.
This integrated cleaning station flushes, cleans, and dries the printhead with a single, automatic cycle. The sealed reservoir eliminates the need to expose solvent to the manufacturing floor and captures all solvent for safe and easy disposal.
The Hitachi UX2 Self Cleaning Station performs a complete clean in seven minutes, preventing solvent drips and protecting operators and the environment. It automates the cleaning process, eliminates manual intervention, saves production time, and ensures safe, efficient operation with minimal disruption.
Hitachi Ink Guard on the UX2 enhances coding by monitoring ink condition and usage, preventing issues like contamination and early failure. It provides corrective guidance when problems arise, reducing troubleshooting time and ensuring consistent print quality. This leads to fewer maintenance stops and reliable performance during lengthy production runs, making the coding process more efficient.
The Hitachi UX2 features automatic self-diagnosis and intelligent start-up routines, ensuring the printer is always ready. It checks nozzle and system health before each run, triggering automatic cleaning as needed. This proactive approach reduces manual prep, prevents misprints, minimizes unexpected stops, and enhances production efficiency with fewer faults and quicker issue resolution.
These are the key reasons the Hitachi UX2 delivers reliable, compliant coding across demanding production environments.
The Hitachi UX2 CIJ delivers consistent, repeatable coding even at high line speeds. Stable character formation reduces rejects and supports reliable traceability across production runs.
The UX2 is designed to minimise operator exposure through sealed ink systems and guided maintenance. Controlled ink handling helps reduce long-term solvent-related risks on the line.
Codes are printed exactly as specified, from batch numbers to expiry dates. Precise placement and consistency support compliance and prevent costly misprints.
Sharp, high-contrast codes remain legible on a wide range of materials. This improves inspection, scanning, and overall code reliability.
An intuitive interface and guided prompts simplify setup and maintenance. Operators can manage the printer quickly without specialist training.
The UX2 uses a modular design, allowing components to be replaced independently. This avoids the cost and downtime associated with replacing a single expensive printer core.
