- Indexing (spot printing) and non-indexing (continuous printing) models with print areas up to 4" x 17.5"
- Field convertible mounting configuration for printing on the top, sides, or bottom of the product
- Precision machines, impact resistant aluminum castings with polyurethan finish for corrosion resistance
- Permanently lubricated, sealed ball bearings in the print drum for extremely accurate, low friction drum rotation
- Stainless steel mounting columns and shafts for durability even in harsh environments

These machines are designed for extreme durability in high volume production printing applications. Optional reservoir roll covers accept our patented 4 oz. disposable ink cartridges which feed ink to the ink rolls automatically during production.
Non-Indexing Models have print drums which rotate freely on sealed ball bearings and print at random starting positions on cartons. These models are normally recommended for high speed conveyor lines where little or no space exists between cartons. In these applications, the print drum always remains in contact with a carton surface, and the code information is printed at an interval equal to the print drum circumference (18.0"). Print repeat intervals can be reduced by installing multiple sets of dies on the print drum.
Indexing Models are used to print on boxes which are being transported on a conveyor. In these applications, when the print drum disengages from the trailing end of the product, a spring mechanism returns the print drum to the index position. This results in the code being printed on each box in the same registered position relative to the leading edge.
