Solutions for printing and marking in the paper converting industry
Coding and marking on boxes, cartons, and secondary packaging
The paper converting industry includes the production of folded cartons, folding boxes, paperboard containers, and corrugated packaging. Marking in this sector mainly concerns production batch coding, manufacturing date, and logistics data such as pallet code, GTIN, and SSCC for the supply chain.
Large character inkjet (LCM) systems are widely used for high-speed coding on corrugated cardboard, while high-resolution inkjet (HIJ) systems enable the printing of barcodes that remain readable even on uncoated paperboard.

Integration with converting lines and ERP systems
In modern automated converting lines, marking systems are directly integrated into die-cutters and folder-gluers. Centralized message management via digital interfaces such as OPC-UA and Ethernet enables automatic updates of print content without stopping production.
Logistics data, including SSCC and GS1 codes, is generated by the ERP system and transmitted in real time to the marking system. Print quality verification through integrated readers ensures compliance with GS1 standards.
Our TIJ systems with HP 4.0 printheads (108 mm height) are the most suitable solution for achieving high print quality and competitive costs, offering maintenance-free, high-performance printing systems.
