1-inch TIJ technology – rethinking the industrial standard

At the core of the NJ-28 series are state-of-the-art 1-inch TIJ printheads (25.4 mm print height) – the proven industrial standard for precise and reliable marking. Thermal inkjet printheads enable razor-sharp text, barcodes, QR codes and logos on almost all materials – from cardboard and plastic to metal. Thanks to low-maintenance cartridge systems, operation is simple, setup is quick, and integration into production lines is easy.

Advantages at a glance:

  • 25.4 mm print height per printhead for clear, easy-to-read codes
  • Razor-sharp print quality up to 300 dpi
  • Low-maintenance cartridge system without external ink supply
  • Fast commissioning thanks to plug-and-print technology

By combining multiple printheads, these units can be seamlessly connected (“seamless splicing”) – enabling large-area prints without visible transitions.

Unlimited flexibility – without a controller

The NJ-28 series follows the principle of “intelligent printhead instead of centralized control”.

  • No separate control unit required
  • No integrated monitor/display
  • Direct integration into your production line
  • Maximum space saving and reduced complexity

Each printhead operates independently and can be positioned flexibly – ideal for demanding installation scenarios.

Industrial performance – uncompromising reliability

Equipped with industrial-grade hardware, an embedded system, and a robust housing, the NJ-28 is designed for demanding environments. Dust, moisture, or temperature fluctuations do not affect print quality or operational reliability.

  • Seamless integration into your production
  • Easy installation thanks to compact design
  • Support for network, USB, and industrial interfaces
  • Integration into existing production and ERP systems
  • Remote control and offline printing possible

Scalable for any application

From simple marking to large-format printing:

  • 1 to 8 printheads freely combinable
  • Print heights from 12.7 mm to over 100 mm+ achievable
  • Perfect for carton marking, packaging, and large-area printing

Despite its compact design, the NJ-28 series delivers true industrial performance:

  • Print speeds of over 200 m/min
  • Reliable continuous operation in production environments
  • High-performance embedded system architecture
