Can Coding
Our can coders are ideal for production line coding of expiration dates and batch numbers, using non-contact printing designed to code onto metal in almost any orientation.
​
Linx are specialists in designing and manufacturing coding and marking equipment. We understand that printing onto aluminium or steel cans presents a number of unique challenges, from difficult to adhere to surfaces and wet or harsh environments, to limited marking areas. Our can coders and printheads have been designed to provide flexibility to meet all your production line printing needs.
​
Our intelligent printers can save time with pre-programmed codes and managed at a distance with options for remote control and monitoring via a secure online system. Linx coders can also print barcodes, datamatrix and QR codes onto tins and cans avoiding the need for labels, unnecessary waste and reducing the impact on the environment.
Linx batch and date coders are used in a wide range of industries from manufacturing beverage and food consumer packaged goods to cosmetics and chemical containers. Our expertise in product and packaging marking & identification can help you to reduce costs and improve productivity.
