The InfoSight Jib Marker for Moving Product is the ideal dot-matrix marking solution when it comes to high contrast marking on moving pipes, tubes or other products. This marking solution can be configured with different marking technologies in order to best match the application requirements:
InfoSight I-DENT® air nebulized marking technology for high temperature large character marking applications.
Third party DOD (drop-on-demand) marking technology for cold-to-medium temperature large character marking applications.
Third party CIJ (continuous ink jet) marking technology for ambient temperature very small character marking applications.
A wide variety of marking media are available to meet most marking applications. Various inks and paints have been developed to handle different ambient temperature, oily and high temperature conditions.
