MPERIA system eliminates costly software changes

A leading manufacturer of cold rolled steel sections and insulation panels were looking for a robust and reliable coding system as part of an integrated solution on their production line.

Due to reliability issues with one of our competitors systems, the customer wished to replace their current printer with our MPERIA™ V-Series system as this was now a standard for the group.

On this application, the information applied to the product is downloaded to the printer from the mill. The customer had been quoted thousands for the line builder to re-write the software on the mill to provide compatibility with a new printing system.

Xact were able to eliminate this cost by loading a plug-in on the MPERIA™ controller which emulates the current download from the production line and converts the string which is compatible with MPERIA™. This flexibility not only eliminated the high cost to modify the software on the line but also downtime on implementation, and also meant no additional hardware was required.   As a result, the customer is scheduled to purchase more MPERIA™ V-series printers (with plug-in) to replace other networked systems across the group that, pre-MPERIA™, had proved too costly to replace. In addition, their visibility to the un-rivalled flexibility the MPERIA™ system can offer their business has initiated a complete review of how they control and manage their product marking processes across the group.

A Clean Winner! MPERIA L Series

A cleaning chemical manufacturer chooses MPERIA™ L-Series against CIJ technology.

Our competitors were offering CIJ (continuous ink jet) printing technology, which historically would have been the standard solution for this application.  CIJ was also an option available within the range from Xact. 

Xact proposed the latest MPERIA™ VIAJet L Series TIJ printer which, in comparison to CIJ technology, not only provided a higher print quality but also significantly reduced initial investment costs as well as operating costs moving forward.  Following the successful implementation of the first system a further three systems have been purchased with another two systems due to be ordered in May 2016.  Xact are now also reviewing the customers outer-case coding and labelling requirements which will also be operated by MPERIA™.

Leading Dairy uses Xact for product coding

A new world class state-of-the-art dairy plant needed a coding solution for their dairy and powdered milk products, including infant milk.  The dairy needed a system that would code production dates, BBE dates and batch and time codes.

They were looking for a flexible and high speed solution capable of dealing with the high demands in a dairy environment such as washdown, cleanliness, condensation and temperature variations.

The I-Mark SX32e V-Series printer from Xact provides a powerful and flexible solution for standard dot matrix and high resolution inkjet printing.  The system is well suited to challenging environments where varying temperatures, vibration and dust can affect the performance of other technologies.

The facility to operate two print heads from a single I-Mark SX32e controller proved to be a cost effective solution for the plant where product information is applied to opposite sides of the bag. The printer currently operates as a ‘stand-alone’ system but will form part of a new network solution early in 2016. Due to the success of the first printer, a second system is in the process of being installed, along with a proposal to incorporate our latest MPERIA operating system sometime in the near future.

Xact, with long-term manufacturing partners, Matthews Marking Systems, supply a complete range of non-contact marking technologies to suit all applications.

MPERIA System Meets Requirements Of The Insulation Industry.

The client was already using the Matthews 8400 inkjet system with a single 32v print head coding on just one side of the insulation board.  They wanted a system that would enable them to mark on both sides of their thermal board.  They also required an integrated system which would fit into their manufacturing process for easier message selection when the insulation boards varied in thickness.

Xact’s technical site survey concluded that an upgrade to Xact’s MPERIA™ VIAjet™ V-Series ink jet printer using two 32v print heads and the MPERIA™ management system would allow the client to link directly making message selection simple.  

Following the success of the first system, a second system will be installed on another line in the coming months.
