Designed to print directly onto plastic or glass bottles in almost any orientation, these printers offer flexibility and precision. With pre-programmed codes, they can print barcodes, DataMatrix, and QR codes directly on bottles—reducing waste and eliminating the need for pre-printed labels.


Engineered to overcome bottle printing challenges

Years of experience in coding and marking equipment have taught us that bottle printing comes with unique challenges. These include hard-to-adhere surfaces, wet or dusty environments, small marking areas, and sterilisation requirements after marking. NAXJET technologies are engineered specifically to overcome these challenges efficiently.


Trusted across multiple industries

Our bottle coders are trusted across industries such as food, beverage, cosmetics, FMCG household products, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. Leveraging our expertise in product and packaging marking, we help clients reduce costs and improve production efficiency.

Production Line Bottle Coders


Bottle based production often requires high volumes, at NAXJET we realize that reliable and consistent product marking is critical as rework adds unnecessary cost to product manufacture.


Our bottle printers and coders are designed to integrate with production line systems, able to cope with a variety of line speeds and with automated date, time, code & number series functions reduce manual interventions and therefore avoid line downtime.


We also have models capable of static marking and offer specialist coding solutions like UV visible inks or permanent laser marking suitable for luxury brands or anti-counterfeit product identification.


FAQs


Q: Can NAXJET inkjet printers mark curved or small bottles?

A: Sure, whether it's a 25mm cap on a small mineral water bottle or a 38mm screw cap, our S-series CIJ inkjet printers are designed for small character date marking on all kinds of bottles. They support 1-15mm character height adjustment. You don't need to worry about the effects of curved shapes or concave bottle bottoms.


Q: Are the markings anti-resistant?

A: Considering the industrial environment inside the factory, such as humidity and temperature, we are equipped with plasma equipment to convert inkjet printing to a curing effect. This solves many challenges for you, such as ink markings being prone to blurring and not being wear-resistant.


Q: Can these printers integrate with existing production lines?

A: Absolutely. NAXJET inkjet printing system is designed for seamless integration with automated production line. It supports MES systems, PLC weighing instruments, and scanning guns to ensure synchronized operation, accurate data capture, and minimal downtime across high-speed production environments.
