VIDEOJET FOCUS 1000 LASER CODING SYSTEM

Affordable Steered Beam Laser Coding
The Videojet Focus 1000 laser coding system from Videojet Technologies is a new steered beam laser imager that offers high reliability and print quality at an exceptional value.

High Resolution, Permanent Codes
The affordable price of the Videojet Focus 1000 laser coder provides a solution to your laser coding needs at an economical cost. This system can mark your products when they are in a static or stopped position, as well as while they are in motion. The unit generates a beam of laser energy that two mirrors use to create characters on the substrate. The Videojet Focus 1000 laser coder is ideal for marking onto products such as paperboard packaging, claycoat or secondary packaging, labels, PET or PVC. Enhanced Features, Affordable Price.

On-Line Data Entry
The Videojet Focus 1000 features "Scalable Fonts" that allow character height and character width to be adjusted at full production speeds ("on-the-fly"), reducing changeover time and increasing throughput. This includes characters printed with continuous line segments or dot-matrix type characters. The font sizes are scalable from 1/10" to the full size of scan window (2-1/2" square print window). Increase Throughput, Decrease Downtime.

No PC Required
The user interface of the Videojet Focus laser coding system is a hand-held terminal with an alpha-numeric keypad and a 4x20 character dot matrix display. The additional cost and increased footprint of a PC and accessories is not required. In fact, the hand-held terminal can be used to set up the message, put the unit into print mode, and then it can be completely removed from the unit. The unit will continue to mark each product until the stop switch is manually activated. The option to disconnect the hand-held terminal ensures that the code cannot be accidentally, or intentionally, changed without proper authority. Flexible, Continuous Coding.
