Z408 system is able to drive all NZ printheads, even mixed, up to a maximum of 4, thus revealing its flexibility and proving ideal for applications with multiple production lines, or where it is required to print a number of lines on the different sides of the package, with a printing range from 5 up to 190 mm.
Z408 can print barcodes, logos and alphanumerical texts on the surface of whatever raw material and secondary packaging, ensuring efficiency and reliability in a myriad of sectors and applications such as Metallurgic, Pipes/ Tubes, Construction, Boards, Petrol Chemical, Gas Tank, Tiles Sector, Cemen Bags, Bags in General, Food, Pet food, and Tires.
The solid and compact stainless steel cabinet is equipped with an enhanced IP protection, which makes the system particularly resistant to dust, high temperatures and water jets, and therefore suitable for being used in the harshest work environments. Interacting with Z408 is easy thanks to Orkestra®, the revolutionary management software with customizable user interface for single operator through language, keyboards and activities. The 10,1″ color touch-screen display further simplifies the coding experience, as well as the use of the graphic editor and of the stretch and drag&drop functions.
