Thermal Transfer Overprinting

DataFlex® 6420
The DataFlex® 6420 is a superior thermal
transfer coding solution for flexible packaging
applications that demand high performance,
ultrafast throughput, and coding flexibility.

When uptime and performance are critical and throughput is your
goal, the DataFlex® 6420 is the ideal solution. The patented
clutchless ribbon drive provides superior uptime by maintaining
consistent ribbon tension which virtually eliminates ribbon breaks,
while simultaneously ensuring high quality print.
The DataFlex® 6420 is available in two print widths, 53mm and
107mm, to meet your specific application needs. The 53mm
format is ideal for a range of flexible packaging applications
including ultrafast horizontal form fill seal applications with
throughput up to 400ppm. When coding applications require a
significant amount of content, such as ingredient lists and
traceability information, the 107mm format offers the ideal
wide format capability.

Uptime Advantage

Code Assurance

•t Clutchless ribbon drive maintains consistent ribbon tension,
virtually eliminating ribbon breaks and ribbon related downtime

•t Advanced coder software virtually eliminates set-up errors

•t Simplest ribbon cassette design on the market, that makes ribbon
replenishment fast, ensuring the coder is back on-line and coding
with minimum impact to production

•t Range of customer selectable rules and permissions that help to
prevent operator error with the printed code

Built-in productivity
•t Longer 1200m ribbon length provides more throughput of coded
products between ribbon changes
•t A wide ranging selection of ribbons, designed specifically to meet
the challenges of flexible packaging applications
•t Patented bi-directional ribbon drive helps ensure that the absolute
minimum ribbon is used during each print cycle, providing more
prints per roll of ribbon
•t Consistent .002” (0.5mm) gap between prints helps ensure highest
ribbon efficiency and minimum waste

•t Simple message selection reduces the potential for operator errors

Simple usability
•t Seamless mechanical integration with a range of OEM equipment
