The Videojet 1620 Continuous Ink Jet printer is designed for more demanding applications including high speed applications and around-the-clock operation. Patented CleanFlowTM and Dynamic CalibrationTM technologies allow for longer runs without intervention. The 1620 is the standard for high throughput coding applications in production environments around the world.

Uptime Advantage

• CleanFlowTM technology resists ink buildup that can cause
  ordinary ink jet printers to shut down
• Long run time between preventive maintenance; up to 14,000
  hour core life
• Internal pump means no external air, minimizing potential for
  contaminants to enter ink stream
• Auto cleaning printhead for fast start-ups, even after extended
  shutdowns

Built-in productivity

• Dynamic CalibrationTM adjusts jetting parameters automatically
  to help ensure high quality print
• Print 1 to 5 lines of print for a range of coding needs
• Smart CartridgeTM fluid delivery system to virtually eliminate spills
  and help ensure the correct fluids are being used
