Rubber Printing System

• Uses non-contact printing technology to clearly print tracking information using co-curable inks for permanent or disappearing marks
• Mistake-proof tracking of rubber products and tire components such as sidewall, tread, and internal components
• Low maintenance, hands-off operation ensures continuous operation to keep your production line running smoothly

Pannier's Rubber Printing System is the first ink jet printer in the world to successfully print with co-curable inks on rubber products. This unique technology provides manufacturers of rubber products with the following benefits:

• The ability to download and print real-time information to increase in-house tracking capabilities: print date, time, serial numbers, batch and lot numbers, and graphics automatically
• Non-contact printing method means identification can be applied at any time during the manufacturing process without without affecting the surface of your product
• High quality marks with a selection of character sizes and styles
• Elimination of mis-marked product reduces scrap and recalled product
• Low-maintenance system is easy to operate and maintain

The printer's patented, low maintenance printhead is completely unique compared to other ink jet printheads. The head does not use valves, resulting in infrequent, if any, clogs - the basic maintenance procedure is to wipe the face plate clean daily. The system is also IP65 rated for resistance to dirt, water and other contaminants.

The dual-pump ink system maintains a continuous ink flow from the reservoir to the printhead. During shutdown, the system automatically circulates the ink at preset intervals to prevent ink settling. The ink supply also features a low-ink warning beacon.
