CODING IN EVOLUTION

The Z303 system is an extremely simple and precise large character printing system (printing on secondary packaging).

Z303 is fitted with a large keyboard for industrial use with a membrane panel which can also be used in very harsh environments.

This type of console can manage medium and low resolution printheads, suitable for printing on a wide variety of surfaces.

Z303 console manages up to a maximum of TWO 7 dots or ONE 16 dots NZ printheads.

Z303 can be interfaced directly with the most frequently used industrial devices, namely, PC, PLC, SCANNERS, ELECTRONIC SCALES, ENCODERS and OPTICAL SENSORS.
