Date coding covers a broad range of technologies including:-
- Hot Stamping,
- Thermal Transfer (both desk top and coders mounted onto parent machines and label applicators),
- Ink Jet (both large character and small character),
- Laser plus a myriad of other devices that are used to date code products.
Date Coding is a subject that is often associated with Batch Coding, Bar Coding, Part Numbers, Identification Numbers, Nutritional Panels, Ingredient Lists, Product Names and the list goes on.
Packmark specialises in
- Hot Stamping.
- Thermal Transfer
We sold our first Hot Stamping date code machine back in 1976 and have sold and supported many units since then. Thermal Transfer is a relatively new technology for the date coding arena. For more detailed information on the process follow the links below to our pages on each of the different technologies.
Our range can be broken into the following types of equipment:-
- Hot Stamping Coders for attachment to Vertical and Horizontal Form Fill Seal machines, Carton erectors and Label Applicators. Coders for both date and batch coding and overprinting are offered.
- Thermal Transfer Desk Top machines for small run applications.
