Real-Time Marking Solutions for Packaging Traceability
Core Functionality
LocusPack supplies thermal transfer printers (TTP) and direct thermal coders for high-speed variable data printing on packaging. These systems imprint critical information directly onto labels, films, or containers during production:
Expiry dates & batch codes
Barcodes & QR codes
Product weights & nutritional info
Compliance symbols (CE, FDA, GOST)
| Type | Technology | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Inline Printers | Thermal transfer (TTO) | Flexible films, pouches, sleeves |
| Label Applicator Printers | Direct thermal | Pre-printed label overwriting |
| Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) | Food-grade inks | Non-porous surfaces (glass, metal) |
| Laser Coders | CO₂/fiber marking | Permanent etching on rigid materials |
