The LEIBINGER EP printer series is an egg coding continuous inkjet printer made for producers that need to mark eggs or cartons with required information or branded imprints. It gives egg production lines a dedicated way to print directly on eggshells and packaging as part of the coding process.
The Leibinger EP egg coding inkjet printer series is specifically geared toward egg producers who are required to mark or code their products or who want to print messages or imprints directly on the egg or the packaging for promotional purposes.
Continuous Inkjet Printer Features
Many countries around the world already require standardized egg coding. Increasingly, producers are being required to print information directly onto eggs or egg cartons, such as a manufacturer code, the laying date, or other production-related information. But an egg coding continuous inkjet printer can create significant added value for both the consumer and the producer, even when the process is not mandated by law.
Easy integration into Moba and Diamond systems (Moba Group) thanks to complete installation kits
High-quality and reliable egg coding for maximum food safety
Coding up to 252,000 eggs per hour (using 8 lanes and 8 printheads vs 8 inkjet printers)
Transparency in food safety builds trust with consumers
Complete product and process traceability for egg producers and consumers
Purchase-related information is passed on to the end consumer (e.g. farming conditions)
Concrete differentiation between competitors (especially in countries without mandatory marking and coding of eggs and egg cartons)
Eggs with manufacturer logos create recognition value and contribute to brand identity, especially in developing countries where eggs are sold individually and not packaged together
Increased production efficiency
Continuous inkjet printers provide maximum flexibility. These printers can be used to imprint any packaging material and even the eggshell itself with fixed or variable information. Thanks to non-contact printing, differently sized eggs are coded safely and reliably without readjusting the printhead.
It’s your choice! The egg coding can be positioned anywhere thanks to the flexible printhead. From end to end: front-side, bottom-side, or top-side printing. Paul LEIBINGER has specially developed an elbow printhead for the egg industry, which provides top-side printing of the eggs even in cases where the conditions in the egg sorting machine are very cramped.
Easy Integration With Packaging Machines
LEIBINGER egg coding continuous inkjet printers are compatible with Moba and Diamond egg sorting and packaging machines (Moba Group). They are shipped with all interfaces, connections, and cable sets, allowing for quick and easy plug-and-play integration. Complete integration into the egg sorting machine provides enormous advantages, such as automatic application of any changes in printing data for all printers in the system and automatic updates to the expiration date. This way, each individual egg is imprinted with information that is specific to that egg.
Paul LEIBINGER offers all egg producers a complete solution for coding your eggs and egg cartons, including FDA and EU-compliant food-grade inks, the optional IP-65 protection class for protection against dust and spraying water, as well as the automated Sealtronic nozzle seal (integrated by default) to prevent ink from drying out in the printhead.
One Product for Marking and Coding Eggs
Continuous inkjet printers can be used for marking and coding both eggshells and egg cartons. This means that egg producers who opt for a CIJ printer from LEIBINGER have a critical advantage: Instead of learning how to use several different printers, they only need to be familiar with and able to operate one printing system. This offers enormous efficiency advantages in the daily production process. Daily work on the system, training personnel, identical ink supplies for all printers, etc. In addition, you can switch to a different packaging material seamlessly when using continuous inkjet printers.
Plug-and-Play Integration For Egg Coding Continuous Inkjet Printers
Automatic management, control, and inspection: Thanks to complete integration into Moba and Diamond egg sorting machines (Moba Group), the marking and coding printout can be managed at a central location, and the continuous inkjet printers can be controlled using the egg sorting machine. Paul LEIBINGER provides you with complete installation kits for this purpose.
Automatic printing data transfer from the control system of the egg sorting machine to the printer
Automatic updates to data that changes regularly, such as the expiration date
Central management of the print data: Printing data or data sets can be changed easily for all printers using the control system of the egg sorting machine
Accurate imprinting of eggs using egg-specific data
Precisely positioned printing on the egg shell or carton
Marking and coding printout can be changed conveniently for different customers
Marking and Coding Position Flexibility on the Egg
Flexible printhead types are available on all egg coding inkjet printers for any variation
From end to end
On the side (front side)
From the top (imprinting the top)
From the bottom (imprinting the bottom)
Special Inks for Egg Coding
FDA and EU-compliant inks that fulfill current laws and stringent health requirements for direct printing on food
Excellent legibility when marking and coding both white and brown eggs
Excellent legibility on cartons and all other packaging materials such as paper, plastic, foam or shrink wrap
Low consumption costs
Fast-drying inks (within 1 second)
Highest Availability: Automated Sealtronic Nozzle Seal
All LEIBINGER continuous inkjet printers are equipped with the automated Sealtronic nozzle seal. This means that during production pauses or upon shutdown of the printer, the gutter is moved to the nozzle, forming an airtight circuit. The ink in the printhead does not dry out, and the CIJ printer is always ready to use. No time-consuming cleaning is required, even after longer downtimes.
Options for Leibinger EP Printers
Nozzle sizes: from 50 to 70 µm
Umbilical: 3 m, optional: 6 m, 10 m
Umbilical, outlet: Straight, 45, or 90 angle
Specially shortened elbow printhead for top-side imprinting
