Said to be the fastest in its class, the Videojet® 3320 laser coder is designed to create consistent, crisp marks on high-speed production lines. Printing standard and 2D bar codes, expiration dates, batch codes, symbols and manufacturers' marks at rates of 1,300 characters/sec for speeds of 15 product marks/sec, the coder reportedly accepts most common data formats, enabling the use of standard CAD and graphics programs. It is operated by hand-held or online PLC or host computer with Ethernet, USB or RS232/422. Jobs are generated by the Windows®-based software SmartGraph™.
