A MARKEM sales representative sums it up as follows: Since we introduced our LCIJ systems in 1998, our printheads have been “fixed mounted” and it was the customer's responsibility to bring their cases very close to our printhead to optimize print quality. But we have all seen in customer plants that printheads are not always going to be against the case. Our customers have had to rely on their people to adjust the conveyor line rails into position and frequently that does not happen, print quality becomes poor and printhead damage is common. This "New" LCIJ Printhead Slide Assembly provides the required solutions as a retrofit to existing systems or can be ordered on new systems installing in only minutes.
