Hardware / Domino unveils the Dx Series of CO2 laser coders for advanced variable data marking

With the Dx Series, Domino introduces CO2 laser coders offering improved speed and precision for variable data printing on a variety of materials. Designed to meet manufacturers' requirements, these devices incorporate technical advances that optimize their integration into production, even in complex environments.

With the Dx Series, Domino Printing Sciences offers new CO2 laser coders designed to meet the need for high-performance, high-precision marking of variable data. This range of coders is designed to meet the growing challenges of traceability and compliance in a variety of industries, including food, beverage and pharmaceutical.

The Dx Series encoders stand out for their speed, with a coding capacity increased by 30% over previous models . This performance is based on a new algorithm that optimizes code application speed and accuracy without compromising quality, even for complex coding such as GS1 augmented QR codes. This increased speed meets the requirements of high-output production lines, limiting downtime while ensuring optimum legibility of the codes generated.

The Dx Series includes several models - the Dx260i (20 watts), the Dx360i (30 watts) and the Dx660i (60 watts) - tailored to manufacturers' specific marking power requirements. This variety enables the laser to be adapted to the type of substrate, from paper to glass to plastic, thus meeting coding needs on a variety of materials without the risk of altering the substrate.

Designed for easy integration into existing production lines, Dx Series laser coders are optimized for reliable operation in demanding industrial environments. The machines can operate in temperature conditions of up to 45°C, and are offered with protection options including an IP65 printhead and IP55 controller, guaranteeing resistance to dust and humidity. These features make the Dx Series particularly suitable for production sites where conditions can alter the durability of unprotected equipment.

Domino has equipped the Dx Series with an advanced extraction system for fumes and particles generated during laser marking. This device contributes to the quality and cleanliness of marking, while prolonging equipment life by limiting the accumulation of residues. This solution is particularly well-suited to industries with stringent hygiene and maintenance requirements, such as the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Dx Series laser coders can be integrated into fully automated coding systems, reducing human error, material waste and operator stress. Domino offers complete solutions including Domino Automation for automatic code deployment, machine vision for mark verification and remote monitoring via the cloud, enabling continuous supervision and real-time adjustments. This approach facilitates production optimization and reinforces product compliance in manufacturing lines.
