Ax130i

Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) Printing - 'Value Without Compromise'

The Domino Ax130i offers printing of simple and quality batch codes up to 5 lines of variable or fixed data through Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) Printing.

Ease of Use:
It is an easy-to-use, worry-free printing solution suitable for coding onto a wide range of products in industries like food, dairy, and cosmetics.

Operating the Ax130i and label editing is as easy as using your phone with only a few touches on the integrated touchscreen using Domino’s common QuickStep user interface needed.

Ease of Maintenance:
The stand-alone printer is virtually maintenance-free – you don’t have to plan downtime; exchanging the ITM service module is simple, a less than 10-minute task performed annually by an operator and that’s it.

High Uptime:
Productivity has been at the forefront when developing the Ax130i: Up and running in no time – just push the start button and your printer is ready for the job.

The Ax130i printhead with its excellent first-time start-up makes it available when you need to code, which makes it an ideal choice for seasonal and intermittent production.

Easy Consumables changes:
Fluid changes are mistake-free through auto-identification of consumables and can be done without stopping the printer.

The user interface can be password protected to ensure your labels are protected and correct. In the background accurate fluid control systems ensure optimised code quality despite changing ambient temperatures.

Domino Inks:
Domino inks are the perfect match for your Ax130i printer: produced to GMP, offering EuPIA and Swiss List compliant options, we have your applications in industries like food, beverage, and cosmetics covered.

Lasting adhesion, lightfastness, and high contrast on a wide range of substrates (e.g. polyolefins) come as standard. Environmental-friendly fluid options, reduced ink consumption, optimised packaging, fully-depleting cartridges, and a reduced footprint contribute to improved sustainability.

Industry Experts:
The Ax130i is a printer for basic requirements but that doesn’t mean we’ve compromised on quality – instead, we’ve used over 40 years of experience with CIJ to create a great coder built to Domino standards. Our unique, highly reliable and enduring iPulse printhead delivers great print quality unchanging over the life of the Ax130i.

Domino Services:
Domino Services can take care of everything from finance to installation and ongoing support for you so that you are free to focus on what's important - your business.
