Printer Types
SmartDate X60 - Intermittent Mode
This version is used with intermittent motion packaging machines and prints onto the
material when it is stationary.
The SmartDate X60 printer in this mode has a print area of 53mm x 75mm and print
speed of 70 to 700 mm/s.
Moving the print-head during the dwell time when the packaging material is stationary
prints the information.
The SmartDate X60 printer in intermittent mode prints text and bar codes at any posi-
tion within the 53mm width by 75mm length print area.
SmartDate X60 uses a thermal print-head and thermal ink ribbon to print information
onto materials held against a flat print platen.
SmartDate X60 - Continuous Mode
This version of the SmartDate X60 printer is designed to print on to moving substrate.
The SmartDate X60 printer in this mode has a print area of 53mm x 150mm and print
speed of 30 to 1000 mm/s.
When in continuous motion mode the print-head is held in a fixed position and the rib-
bon is accelerated to match the substrate speed.
An encoder is used to establish the speed of the material being printed onto.
This makes it the ideal coder for continuous motion form fill and seal machines and hori-
zontal flow wrappers, where larger images are required and fast print speeds are not an
issue.
The SmartDate X60 printer in this mode prints text and bar codes at any position within
the 53mm width by 150 mm length print area.
SmartDate X60 uses a thermal print-head and thermal ink ribbon to print information
onto materials held against a print roller.
