MARKTECH Cx500 Continuous Inkjet Printer
A versatile 50 µm CIJ platform for mid-to-high volume packaging and filling lines that need durable codes for compliance and traceability.
The MARKTECH Cx500 series continuous inkjet printer balances performance and versatility for packaging environments. Dye and pigment ink options support a wide range of substrates — from glossy films to rugged metals — without physical contact. The official datasheet lists Cx500 (dye), Cx500c (pigment), and Cx500s (high speed); the sales guide describes the s and c variants as high-speed configurations.
The series is specified for 24/7 operation in dusty, moist, or temperature-variable plants. Published literature cites printing of up to 1,000 characters per second, along with IoT-ready remote monitoring and a self-cleaning ink system. Non-contact coding is suited to curved, uneven, or heat-sensitive surfaces such as cables, rubber, and PVC.
Key capabilities
- Non-contact CIJ for curved, uneven, or heat-sensitive substrates
- Dynamic barcodes including QR and DataMatrix, plus date, time, logo, batch, and serial data
- Automatic viscosity and ink-bleed control with 750 ml cartridge consumables
- 10.1″ WYSIWYG touch screen (1280×800); IoT-ready remote monitoring
- IP55 stainless steel cabinet — no plant air required
Typical applications
Construction materials, pipes and cables; daily chemicals and cosmetics; automotive and parts; and packaging and filling — alongside broader food, pharmaceutical, and electronics coding work.
