SmartDate X60 Shuttle Continuous Printer
This version of the SmartDate X60 printer is designed to print on to moving substrate.
The SmartDate X60 has a print area of 53mm x 100mm and print speed of:
30 - 700 mm/s - High Pack Rate mode
30 - 1000 mm/s - High Speed mode
30 - 1800 mm/s - Digital Ribbon Save (DRS) mode.
The print-head assembly has no linear motion, the ribbon is accelerated to match the
substrate speed.
An encoder is used to establish the speed of the material being printed onto.
This version of the SmartDate X60 printer uses a ribbon shuttle mechanism similar to
SmartDate5c to attain the higher speeds required.
This makes it the ideal coder for continuous motion form fill and seal machines and hori-
zontal flow wrappers, where the image size is below 100mm in length and high speed is
an issue.
The SmartDate X60 prints text and bar codes at any position within the 53 mm width by
100 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
