Description

Advancing the Technology

The Z5000 offers the ultimate excellent printing quality, the result of an innovative 32 dots technology.

Texts of up to 5 lines may be obtained by using several combined printing matrix.
Up to six languages may be selected from the console and, furthermore, by elaborating the software, Arabic, Cyrillic, Chinese and Korean characters can be included.
The innovative systems of viscosity and ink temperature control ensures stability and reduction of consumables, always keeping perfect printing quality.

The Z5000 is fitted with an easy one START/STOP button, it makes the Start-Up and Shut-Down operations simpler and faster. In addition, it includes the automatic flushing of the printhead with solvent.

The complete and reliable hydraulic circuit, which sets this system apart from others, also allows the use of light pigmented inks on dark surfaces with a fast drying time and good adhesion on the most materials.
Additionally, this system can manage the food grade inks for printing directly to food products.

The solid stainless steel casing offers a high level of Ingress Protection (IP65) and great reliability in a range of harsh environments (high level of humidity, water jets or fine dust).

The electronic control of the Z5000 system has been completely based on SMD technology, guaranteeing stability, speed, memory and high level calculations.

This system is the right answer for all special application.
