"Over the decades, we have seen many changes in the printing industry. For us, LEIBINGER is the clear leader. The printers are doing very well for us.“

The challenge

Printing markings on many different types of cables is key to the company’s high-quality portfolio. HFCL has been working with LEIBINGER and its local partner INDOMAX for several years – and now successfully deploys more than 40 machines across its three plants. In the past, operators had to continuously clean the printer heads. Now, with LEIBINGER’s fully automatic Sealtronic nozzle sealing technology, this time-consuming step is no longer necessary.

  • Inkjet printing is a key requirement for all the OFCs we supply to our customers around the world. Machine reliability, printing quality and accuracy are mission-critical. We know we can always count on LEIBINGER printers.

  • Our customers around the globe are all very pleased with the quality and accuracy of the printing on our cables.

JET3 UP and JET3 UP PI

The JET3 UP series includes advanced, feature-rich printers ideally equipped to take on challenging applications. Complex production environments call for sophisticated coding and marking solutions – and they don’t come any smarter or more powerful than the JET3 UP. It prints up to 5 lines, performs up to 403 m/min, and comes with a rich array of features and flexible options. 100% German-made with a global reputation for reliability, the JET3 UP is easy to use and LEIBINGER’s unique Sealtronic nozzle sealing technology eliminates the need for cleaning or rinsing. The JET3 UP was designed to keep production lines running with maximum uptime.

HFCL also uses the PI variants of the JET3 UP series, which are specifically designed for printing on dark surfaces – a common requirement in the cable industry. These printers are optimized for high-contrast printing with heavily pigmented inks.

Thanks to an advanced stirring system inside the ink tank, the pigment remains evenly distributed, ensuring consistent ink viscosity at all times. No sedimentation, no clogging – just reliable performance.

The integrated stirring system combined with an intelligent interval mode requires as little as 20 minutes of stirring per day to guarantee an immediate start-up – even after extended idle times.

  • The JET3 UP printers are highly reliable. They deliver very accurate printing and are extremely user-friendly. Even semi-skilled operators can work with the machines very comfortably.

  • LEIBINGER’s Sealtronic technology gives us a real advantage. Our machines work at extremely high speeds. We are very happy with the LEIBINGER printers for our high-speed lengths. They save us a lot of time and hassle.

Sealtronic

LEIBINGER's world-famous automatic nozzle sealing technology

The fully automatic Sealtronic nozzle sealing technology is what sets LEIBINGER printers apart from the competition. It doesn’t require the cleaning cycles that are typical for conventional CIJ printers – and this eliminates production downtime. How does it work? As soon as the printer stops printing, the nozzle in the LEIBINGER print head closes the ink circuit airtight and prevents the ink from drying out. When the printer starts up again, the nozzle opens and the printer continues printing seamlessly.
