Lenox Systems has supplied a Laser coder to a pharmaceutical supplier in Ireland, to produce both data matrix and a 2 d data matrix codes for the export market.
Managing Director of Lenox Systems, Paul O’Rourke-Walker says ‘’We are seeing a big demand to replace existing ink jet coders and use Lasers on new projects to produce 2 d datamatrix codes. Laser certainly is encroaching into a market that was traditionally Ink jet territory. However, with the environmental and waste costs and concerns of ink/solvent storage and disposal, opinions and costs of ownership of an Ink Jet is certainly changing in favour of lasers’’
