Primary Features
Explore the key features of the UX2-High Speed Printer, designed to ensure superior print quality on high-speed production lines.
The printhead is built with a 55-micron nozzle that is precision-engineered for high-speed 1-4 line printing, ideal for industries with fast-paced production lines where print quality is crucial.
Ink is recovered using a pulsating system, which reduces the evaporation rate and makeup consumption, thus increasing your bottom line.
Effortlessly manage routine tasks, maintenance, and recovery from faults with the help of UX2 printer's interactive onboard video guidance, guaranteeing smooth and efficient printing operations
Sealed system that cleans and dries printheads, diagnoses dirty nozzles, performs nozzle cleanings, improves ink viscosity, and serves as a long term docking station to prevent clogged printers. Choose from Eco, Standard, or Deep Clean Mode for tailored cleaning. Plus, set up a scheduled ink recirculation before long downtimes, preventing any clogged ink paths.
Hitachi's patented Ink Guard traps ink mist, preventing splashback and ensuring clean, error-free printing for up to three times longer than traditional printers. Enjoy superior print quality, reducing downtime and costs associated with cleaning and poor quality prints
Ensure flawless prints and barcode readability, even at high speeds, with UX2's Enhanced Dot Control Algorithm. Optimized dot placement and sequences minimize errors, delivering vastly improved printing quality.
