Videojet Technologies Unveils New Lightfoot Canning Solution

Videojet Technologies is proud to launch their new Lightfoot canning solution, a global pioneer in coding, labeling, and printing solutions.

FREMONT, CA: With more than 30 years of world-class laser design experience, Videojet Technologies is proud to launch its new Lightfoot canning solution, a global pioneer in coding, labeling, and printing solutions. This sophisticated laser canning solution blends a Videojet fiber laser's typical reliability with the pace of dual Lightfoot branding heads to address the beverage canning manufacturers' demanding production requirements.

The Lightfoot canning solution, developed for beverage purposes, is designed with sturdy components, which include IP69 rated marking heads and an IP65 rated supply cabinet that can withstand wet, sugar-laden, or washdown conditions easily. The Videojet canning device can achieve marking speeds of up to 100,000 cans per hour with dual Lightfoot marking heads integrated with one software control.

Instead of using multiple suppliers and incompatible components to create a device, rely on Videojet to provide everything you need. The Videojet Lightfoot canning system is an all-in-one solution that provides a sealed class 1 enclosure to ensure that the operators are safe from any optical radiation, whereas an integrated fume extractor protects operators from harmful aluminum dust and fumes. To easily incorporate into the line, a modular beam shield fits around the conveyor belt. The marking head air knife prevents dust or debris from clear from the beam exit window. Standard industry protocols allow them to link to systems for common line integration or code management.

The Videojet Lightfoot canning solution is an entirely comprehensive kit designed to provide the efficiency, protection, and reliability needed for efficient high-speed beverage canning operations. Videojet is committed to supporting the production for the lifetime of the printer, along with VideojetConnect' Remote Service that offers expert technical support and advice remotely on demand and continues free support from the sample labs if the application or substrate changes.

A clean, secure alternative to the conventional inkjet coding solution is known as fiber laser technology. Manufacturers will benefit from superior uptime with limited upkeep and no ink or solvents. In addition, fiber laser codes are accurate and irreversible so that consumer quality specifications can be reliably met. The Videojet Lightfoot canning solution makes the switch seamless for producers seeking to evolve their output coding to laser technology.
