Encoder
An Encoder sends the JetStream continuous information about the speed of the conveyor.
When using a variable speed conveyor, an Encoder is needed to coordinate the timing of
printing with the timing of the passing products. An Encoder is essentially a wheel that
touches the conveyor belt and sends electronic pulses to the JetStream with real time
information on the distance that the conveyor has moved at any given instant, regardless of
changes in conveyor speed. Squid Ink offers a high-resolution Encoder that sends 4,000
pulses per revolution to the JetStream and is highly recommended for this application.
Mounting Equipment
Used for mounting the Printhead in a consistent position relative to the product/substrate.
Options include a Printhead Mounting Stand or a Videojet Printhead Mounting Bracket.
