Timbermark showcases new products at LIGNA

Timbermark Identification Systems, the high-resolution inkjet printing solutions provider, is showcasing its latest products at this year’s LIGNA exhibition in Hannover. The Oxfordshire-based company, which already supplies many of Europe’s sawmills and pallet manufacturers is focusing on two product ranges, both using the reliable and effective HP technology.

 

The first is the Chinese-manufactured Sojet “Elfin” range of inkjet printers, which are simple, reliable and importantly, very good value. Even the entry-level system (which costs only €1500) has a fully-featured, touch screen controller.

 

What’s new is that Timbermark has developed a control module, which allows for easy integration with other systems, for applications such as variable data for grading C16/C24, or external data for part-numbering or live batch codes.

 

Timbermark is showing visitors how to use this print technology to replace bar code labels. Apart from being lower-cost than labels, inkjet codes allow users to automate application of the bar code, and to comply with retailer requirements. The HP technology is sharp enough to work well on trimmed ends or on a planed surface.

 

Also on show there is a bulk ink system from Danish supplier, HSA. This system is well adapted to provide lower running costs for Hewlett Packard technology, and includes cheap bulk ink supplied in a 1L bottle format, and independently interchangeable ink cartridges. These features allow customers to maximize the use of the ink cartridge, and to achieve low running costs, at the same time as benefitting from the superb print quality and easy maintenance using HP technology.
