APPLICATION
Pouch Packaging
Flexible packaging such as plastic film, pouches, sachets, and stick packs are widely used in the snack food, instant coffee, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries.
This type of packaging requires a precise, fast, and non-damaging coding solution, as the material is thin, delicate, and easily melted by excessive heat.
To meet these needs, PT Aga Prima Engineering offers several coding and marking technology options from Markem-Imaje, tailored to the type of production line and printing speed requirements.
CHALLENGE
SOLUTION
Thermal Transfer Overprinting (TTO) technology is the ultimate solution for printing codes on flexible films.
This machine uses a hot film ribbon to transfer ink to the packaging surface through controlled pressure and temperature.
Key advantages:
- Capable of printing sharp, high-resolution codes (up to 300 dpi) on plastic film, foil, and labels.
- Safe for thin materials — does not damage packaging film.
- Ideal for printing date code, batches number, barcode, or logo in the packaging line automatic.
- Low operating costs and minimal maintenance.
For production lines with high hygiene demands or ink- and ribbon-free requirements, the Laser Coding SmartLase Series is the modern choice.
Advantages:
- Does not use ink or ribbons — eco-friendlyand free waste.
- Permanent prints do not fade, and require no routine maintenance.
- The code remains legible even after sealing or reheating.
