Manufacturer’s identification, product and production information, size, price, date, and other information related to the use of the products are placed on the packages by on-line coding, marking and imprinting machines. Â These machines are normally mounted on packaging machines or conveyors, or they are inserted into the line, so that they operate in conjunction with the rest of the packaging line.
Frain has coder equipment and marking machines in stock ranging in price from $2,500 to $50,000. Depending on your product, speed and container, Frain engineering can select the best coder for your application.
