Aluminum Foil Printing | Aluminum Foil Ink

Simple & economical - printing on aluminum foil with NasaJet®.

Aluminum foil is still very popular today as a packaging material - even though it is increasingly being viewed aspects, it is increasingly being viewed more critically. For many applications in industry, but also for use in the home kitchen, aluminum foil simply offers Aluminum foil simply offers too good properties at an economical price. Aluminum foil reliably protects against contact with oxygen, with Light, germs or moisture - in other words, from almost anything that can "harm" food. It reflects more than 90% of radiant heat and thus keeps food food not only fresh, but also warm. In the construction industry, aluminum foil is is therefore also used as a reliable insulation or vapor barrier, as well as for insulating cables. The modern pharmaceutical industry would be unthinkable without blister packs made of aluminum foil (blister foil).

Printing on aluminum foil or blister foil is therefore an essential part of the manufacturing and processing process in many areas (food industry, pharmaceuticals,...). Manufacturing and processing process. For example, expiration date (BBD), batch numbers or other product information can be printed on aluminum foil. This is usually done by marking systems integrated into the manufacturing conveyor belts. Marking systems based on TIJ, but for smaller production volumes or very dynamic print data, portable hand printers are increasingly used.

Aluminum foil printing with inkjet hand printers

Handheld inkjet guns are very well suited, due to their design, when it comes to quickly and cost-effectively print small to medium quantities of aluminum foil wrapped products or aluminum components. The very heterogeneous irregularity of the surface, as occurs with packaged food products, can be easily can be easily compensated for. In contrast to pre-printed packaging, the exact output location of the print data can also be flexibly changed as required. be changed. A hand printer reliably supports highly variable data (production date, shelf life, delivery addresses, etc.), as is often the case in this sector. For building materials (aluminum pipes, large-area aluminum insulation), the handheld printer can also print on curved and curved surfaces without any problems.
Inkjet technology (Thermal Inkjet - TIJ) is also very economical for monochrome printing, as is sufficient for product information is sufficient. Also ink with properties and qualities, such as waterproof, smudge-proof and fluorescent, can be had quite cheaply today. quite inexpensive to have.
For printing on aluminum and aluminum foil in small to medium-sized batches, there is hardly a better solution at the moment than an inkjet hand printer.

NasaJet® NJ-500 (up to 5cm print height) hand printer for aluminum

The NasaJet® hand printers are exactly the right choice if you frequently need to print aluminum foil.

The print unit can be flexibly positioned. The control unit with the built-in touch screen allows complex print templates to be quickly created in the unit itself. The printing of aluminum and aluminum foil with necessary information such as expiration date, serial numbers or barcodes is thus possible in a fully automated manner. The labeling costs remain economical.
