Large Character Printer

Built For Ease Of Use And Near-Zero Maintenance

All machines require regular maintenance to work reliably. With the pressure of many lines and long production hours, proper maintenance procedures are not always followed. This eventually leads to unnecessary line downtime.

Control Print has included a number of time-saving features that reduces the maintenance burden on your people and keeps the printer running reliably.

Runs reliably even in the harshest conditions

We designed and built the LCP with the harshest industrial environments in mind. Rugged construction ensures maximum reliability.

IP 65 rated
IP 65 Rated - Waterproof
Waterproof

Fully waterproof construction ensures the LCP can be hosed clean during a regular line wash down.

IP 65 Rated - Dustproof
Dustproof

Positive air pressure inside the machine stops air and dust particles from the environment from entering and contaminating the ink stream and clogging the printer.

Built For Ease Of Use And Near-Zero Maintenance

All machines require regular maintenance to work reliably. With the pressure of many lines and long production hours, proper maintenance procedures are not always followed. This eventually leads to unnecessary line downtime.

Control Print has included a number of time-saving features that reduces the maintenance burden on your people and keeps the printer running reliably.

Automatic purging keeps the nozzles clean
Automatic purging keeps the nozzles clean

The LCP features both manual and automatic purge functions. When triggered, the printer ejects a burst of ink that clears dust particles and other contaminants from the print head. This ensures the nozzles remain clear and prevents print quality deterioration.

Solvent switchover ensures smooth shutdown and startup
Solvent switchover ensures smooth shutdown and startup

The LCP features both ink and solvent tanks for smooth shutdown and startup. Typically, when shut down for longer periods, ink settles and clogs the printer. The solvent switchover function flushes the printer with solvent that clears ink residues and ensures the machine is ready for shutdown. Triggered at the press of a button, this reduces the maintenance-load on the operators and ensures trouble-free startups.

LCP featuring a top-up capable ink tank
Top-up capable ink tank reduces downtime and cuts ink wastage

We have the only LCP featuring a top-up capable ink tank. Instead of switching ink barrels you can top up the ink tank, much like a car’s fuel tank. A top-up capable ink tank has several advantages over interchangeable ink barrels.

Top-up while running

The tank can be topped up while the printer is running, reducing downtime.

All products are coded

Prevents products from not being coded due to ink running out.

Eliminates ink wastage

Since zero ink in the tank is never a good idea, about 10 to 15% of ink ends up being wasted with most printers. Top up capable ink tank completely eliminates this wastage.

Protects the printer

If ink runs out completely the printer’s pumps can be damaged. The top-up feature thus prevents your printer from breaking down in the middle of operations.

Large touchscreen and icon-based user interface for easy operation

Large 12.1-inch solvent-resistant touchscreen for easy operation. Print bold and clearly visible logos that stand out from the crowd.
Icon-based, visual interface helps new users to learn the machine quickly. Anyone who has used a smartphone feels instantly familiar with the LCP.

Innovative Features That Ensure All Products Are Coded Properly

Eliminate waste and rework due to missing codes
Products without code or a poor code are a common problem that increase scrap and rework. The LCP is equipped with innovative features that ensure all products are properly coded.

Product without code
“No-print” kit ensures all products are coded

The “no-print” kit is an internal failsafe mechanism that detects whether the message was printed correctly or not. If there’s a problem the mechanism shuts down the line and prevents more products from being shipped without a code. This automated check reduces the need for manual quality control and checks.

Throw distance
Best-in-class throw distance ensures high quality codes

Printed products often come in irregular shapes and may not be perfectly aligned with the print head, which can lead to poor quality codes. With industry-leading 70mm throw distance Control Print’s LCP can deliver high quality codes even on irregular surfaces and imperfectly aligned products.

Sufficient throw distance also allows for easier line integration. The print head can be installed further away from heavy objects (such as concrete bags), which significantly reduces collision risk.

“Slant Head Technology” Allows Coding Of Large And Small Products With One Printer

In most large character printers, the print head is fixed in a vertical position and the print height is fixed. Changing the print height requires changing the print head.

Control Print’s “slant head technology” enables the print height to be changed by slanting the print head. This unique feature increases printer versatility and allows coding of both small and large products without time-consuming setup changes.

Slanthead Technology
Print small and large products without time-consuming setup changes.
Being able to tilt the printhead eliminates the need to stop the production line and change the printer setup. This results in less downtime and higher productivity.
Packed with innovative features
  • User Level Control Eliminates Coding Errors

    Coding errors are never more than one typo away. In fast-moving production lines a simple operator error can lead to hundreds of rejects.

  • Centralized message creation

    User level control technology removes message creation from the factory floor, eliminating the vast majority of coding errors. Messages are created and validated by authorized personnel on a central computer. The operator only has to choose the message from the message database and start the job.

  • Access control

    User level control can further restrict access to service functions to trained service personnel. This prevents untrained users from accidentally causing problems.

  • Industry-leading print performance

    • Print speeds in excess of 80m/min
    • Print height up to 50mm
    • Large variety of printing options, including:
    - Text
    - Automatic date and time functions
    - Numbering and serialization
    - Graphics and logos
