Date & Batch Coding Machine sri lanka

We are a leading supplier of coding machines in Sri Lanka. We were the very first in Sri Lanka to introduce various new and latest technology for coding and industrial printing in Sri Lanka.

What are Coding machines used for

Coding machines are used by manufacturers of various products that require print to convey certain product details to consumers. Coding machines are used for the below.

• Printing Expiry and Mfg dates

• Printing prices

• Printing trackable codes (QR and Bar codes)

• Printing Logos and other symbols

Coding machines are of various types. Not all coding machines suit every manufacturer for instance a small scale manufacturer with smaller production volume will require a machine that is much lower to invest on and also achieves a lower cost per print. keep reading and you will figure out which type of coding machine best suites your requirement.

What are the types of coding machines

Date and Batch coding machines are of various types as mentioned above, below are the various types of date and batch coding machines available

• Manual Coding Machines

Manual Coding machines are the types of machines that need to be manually operated. these machines are very much ideal for small scale industries.

1. DY-8 Coder

2. Numex Coding seal

3. Roller Coders

• Automatic Coding Machines

Automatic only coding Machines are generally used in massive industries. These machines are generally coupled with other existing machinery in the factory. Automatic coding printers include

1. Continues Inkjet Printer (CIJ)

2. Automatic Thermal Inkjet Printer

3. Automatic Roller Coder

4. Thermal Transfer over printer (TTO printer)

5. High Resolution coding printer

• Multi-mode Coding Machines

The handheld Inkjet Printer by far is the only machine that falls into this category. The handheld Inkjet printer is an excellent coding machine that can be used both as a manual coding option and an automatic coding option.

How to Select the Right Coding Machine?

As you might be well aware now coding machines are of various types and capacity. Selecting the right coding machine is very crucial for any industry.

Factors to be considered while purchasing a coding a machine

1. Price of the machine; The price of the machine seem the thing that first comes off to the mind. Coding machines can vary in price from LKR 3500 to LKR 5 million.

2. Running cost; This is far more important than the price of the machine itself. The running cost depends on how much the machine requires servicing and the charges for maintenance.

3. Per Print Cost; This is no doubt the most important aspect to consider while purchasing a coding machine. The per print cost is calculated by adding up the usage of consumables (ink, cartridge and ribbon) and the cost of maintenance and dividing it by the number of prints achieved during a certain time.

4. Capacity; The DY-8 coding machine is by far achieves the best cost per print but that being said this machine cannot be used on massive coding lines.
