Detailed Description:
The Model 402I Ink Jet Seed Bag Coder uses Thermal Ink Jet Technology to place codes directly on any part of a seed or feed bag prior to your filling operation. Just like the paper printer on your desk, you just load your standard seed bags into the Model 402I and it will code as many bags as you wish! The Model 402I uses the standard Key-Mat Coder Head™ to pass the bag across a series of HP (Hewlett Packard) coding heads allowing you to place any kind of data onto the bag. Examples include: logos, QRC codes, barcodes, lot and variet information. The Key-Mat Coder Head is mounted on a four post stand with locking wheels (included). It can be moved from location to location easily. The Model 402I has folding panels that make it easy to adjust to your bag size, feed the coder and move the ink jet seed bag coder through standard 36-inch commercial doors. The Model 402I is networkable and uses either serial or standard ethernet connections. The Model 402I can be a stand-alone manual system or it can be integrated directly into an automated bagging line (pre-fill). Options include: robotic seed bag feeder.
Features
-
Automatic Seed Bag Coding: The Model 402I allows you to place your empty seed or feed bags into the robotic seed bag feeder and the coder will place codes directly onto the bag automatically using a thermal transfer process. (This process is much better than continuous feed dot matrix ink jet.)
-
Production Run (Lot) Tracking Software: The Model402I has on board production run and code creation software that keeps track of the number of bags coded and the lot information you are currently using in the production run. With a few setting changes, the coder can connect directly to Pilot ERP Software and information can come directly from the software that you use to run your bagging operation.
-
Key-Mat Traction Feed Coder Head Technology: The Model 402I coder head uses belt-driven feeder technology that pushes your bag directly in front of HP ink jet heads to give you up to 600 DBP resolution on your seed bags.
-
Codes Large Volumes of Paper Seed Bags Automatically: You simply need to setup the Model 402I coder with the volume desired, fill the robotic feeder with seed bags and collect coded bags on the bag catch.
-
More Information on the Bag: Because the bag code information is printed on the bag at 600 DPI you can fit more information into a smaller area.
-
Print Codes All Over Bag: Exclusive to the Model 402I you can place codes all over the bag and are not restricted to the top of bag (bag lip) as with our other models.
-
Stand Alone or Integration With Seed Bagging Line:
-
Optimized Data Directly On Seed or Feed Bag: Customers and governments are requiring more and more information on every seed or feed bag produced. It is expected that this trend will continue. The Model 402I allows you to put any kind of information you want on your bag: logos, barcodes, QRC codes, numbers, letters, and symbols. Because the coder can print at 600 DPI, you can control your data like never before!
-
Integrates with Pilot ERP Software or Other Database Systems: The Model 402I is designed to work as a “stand alone” or with Pilot ERP Software. This provides you with a single expandable data solution for your bagging operation. With slight customization, the Model 402I can work with any standard database system allowing you to pull information directly from your software.
-
Positive Pressure Keep Clean System: The Model 402I uses a positive, keep clean system. This system pulls air from outside through a HEPA filter prior to passing the air past the ink jet printing heads. The system keeps dust and dirt away from the HP InkJet heads allowing them to stay cleaner and last longer.
-
Snap-In Ink Cartridges from HP: The Model 402I uses snap-in ink cartridges that come in many different colors and ink varieties that can be optimized for paper, poly, and plastic.
-
Network Interface: The Model 402I comes with a standard ethernet network interface providing you with an easy to use setup for the coder.
Benefits
-
Increases Productivity: The Model 402I provides Customers with productivity gains across the board. You will experience faster setup and configuration of codes, actual seed bag coding and fast shut down. The Model 402I enables your bagging staff to do more, faster than every before. This saves your company time and money adding to your bottom line.
-
Better Accuracy: With network and database integration the Model 402I stands alone in its ability to pull information from a variety of sources allowing you to get the most accurate data possible! Whether you are using Pilot ERP Software to run your bagging operation or you have developed your own database, the Model 402I can place information on the bag better and with more accuracy than before!
-
Very High Resolution: The Model 402I prints at 600 DPI (Dots Per Inch) which is very high-resolution for the bagging industry. With higher resolution you are able to put more information in a smaller area on the bag.
-
Adapts to Changes in Governmental Requirements: Its only a matter of time before you are going to be required to put GMO information on your bags. The Model 402I can easily exceed any governmental requirement for bag coding.
Specifications:

-
Length: 44 Inches
-
Height: 40 Inches
-
Capacity: 75 bags per minute

Options and Accessories:
-
Automatic Robotic Bag Feeder: The Model 402I comes with a manual feed tray that you can use to slide your seed bags up into the Key-Mat Coder Head which will automatically code the bag. The Automatic Robotic Bag Feeder replaces the manual feed tray and automatically uses vacuum robotics to feed standard feed bags into the Model 402I. You just stack the bags into the feeder, tell the coder how many bags to code and it is all automatic from there!
Software
-
Software Onboard: The Model 402I comes with code design software onboard that allows you to adjust the codes placed onto your bags. This includes: graphical logos, data fields, bar codes, QRC codes, symbols, etc.
-
Pilot ERP Software: The connection software used to connect your Model 402I to Pilot ERP Software is included in every Model 402I. Pilot ERP Software, used to manage your bagging operation, is not included with the Model 402I and is sold separately.
