Linx 9900 Running Costs: Ink and Solvent Saving Options

in

Linx 9900 running costs deserve a closer look when you review your production coding setup. Reliable Industrial Group can help you assess optional features aimed at reducing ink and solvent consumption. First, share your packaging, required code and production schedule. Then, discuss a suitable configuration for your application.

Reduce Linx 9900 Running Costs with Optional Features

Linx publishes two consumption-saving figures for its 9000 Series range, which includes the 9900 Series. The optional 50-micron printhead offers up to 48% less ink use. Meanwhile, optional Active Airflow Control offers up to 42% lower solvent use. Therefore, confirm the selected model, ink and option combination before ordering.

Up to 48% Less Ink with the Printhead Option

The 50-micron printhead option targets ink consumption. However, the required code must still suit your packaging and production process. For example, review the message size and readability on a representative sample. Then, assess the proposed setup at your intended line speed.

Linx 9900 Running Costs: Solvent Consumption

Active Airflow Control is a separate option aimed at lowering solvent consumption. As a result, it provides another feature to consider during equipment selection. However, the published maximum is not a guaranteed saving for every production line.

For the original product information, see the Linx 9000 Series overview. In addition, explore our coding and marking solutions to discuss your wider requirements.

Assess Linx 9900 Running Costs on Your Line

Start with your current consumable use and production output over a representative period. Next, record operating hours and the messages you print. Also, note cleaning routines and changes in product mix. These details help define a useful comparison.

For example, compare ink use per thousand equivalent codes and solvent use over comparable operating hours. Keep the code layout and production conditions consistent where possible. Then, review any differences before estimating an annual saving.

The two percentages describe different consumables, so they must not be added together. Similarly, a reduction in consumption is not the same percentage reduction in your total operating bill. Therefore, include consumable prices, option costs and service requirements in your assessment.

What to Send for Sample Marking

  • Packaging material and product photographs
  • Required code and print dimensions
  • Printing position and line speed
  • Daily operating hours
  • Current ink and solvent use, if available
  • Cleaning routines and production conditions

Next, request sample marking to review the proposed code on your product. In addition, ask which optional features are included in the quotation. This makes the equipment scope clear before you proceed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are both saving features standard?

No. Both features are options. Therefore, ask us to confirm compatibility and include the required options in the proposal.

Will my total running costs fall by either percentage?

Not necessarily. The claims concern ink and solvent consumption separately. Actual financial savings depend on your application, usage and costs.

Does this apply to every configuration?

Confirm the model and configuration during the application review. Also, check regional availability before finalising your order.
