Hi! My friends!
This is Gloria, the BD manager from OMAJET. We are the professional factory of PIJ, CIJ, TIJ inkjet printer and laser marking machines in China.
This term is to illustrate the big advantages of our A500 PIJ inkjet printer for UDI Code Printing. Let's see it together.
Industry Background and Trends
The medical industry is increasingly adopting Unique Device Identification (UDI) regulations globally to enhance traceability, ensure patient safety, and improve supply chain efficiency.
PIJ/UV inkjet printing technology aligns perfectly with these requirements by offering high-resolution, durable, and compliant coding solutions that withstand sterilization, chemical exposure, and harsh environments. The trend toward automation and digitization in healthcare manufacturing further drives the need for reliable, high-speed, and flexible printing systems like UV inkjet printers.
Advantages of the UV/PIJ Inkjet Machine
UV inkjet printers, such as the OMA JET series, are particularly suited for medical UDI coding due to their high precision (up to 600 DPI), excellent adhesion on various substrates, and resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and moisture. Features like negative pressure ink supply, internal ink circulation, and support for variable data printing ensure consistent print quality and minimal downtime. The ability to print from a distance of up to 3cm also allows for coding on uneven or sensitive medical packaging without contact.
Value to Customers
By implementing UV inkjet printing for UDI codes, medical manufacturers can achieve greater operational efficiency, reduce waste, and ensure full regulatory compliance. The technology supports high-speed production lines, reduces maintenance frequency, and offers long-term reliability. This results in lower total cost of ownership, enhanced product security, and improved brand trust through clear, permanent, and scannable codes that meet international standards.
Customer practice has proven that UV ink consumption is one-fifteenth of that of thermal inkjet printers. One of our customers previously used thermal inkjet printer, which cost 450USD of ink consumption per day and was unaffordable. After switching to our UV inkjet printers, not only did maintenance costs decrease significantly, but efficiency also increased by 40%.
After calculating the total cost, it was found that it only took 2-3 months to achieve a break-even point, which means PIJ/UV inkjet printer can save much money in the future.
Therefore, if you and your customer need bulk volume production with single type print, our PIJ inkjet printer will be the best choice.
This is the end of this term. Thank you for reading.
