How Account Trends Impact Future Planning for Coding and Labeling Operations
Specify Alternate Text

At Diagraph Marking & Coding, we like to work closely with customers to understand the cycles of their business. This allows us to develop and recommend a personalized plan to manage maintenance schedules and on-hand supplies for their coding and labeling operations.

Cyclical account trends help predict and plan for the following:

  1. Fluid Stock Management – If your production throughput is not steady and consistent year-round, you run the risk of having an oversupply or undersupply of perishable fluids like ink and solvent. A close eye on the cycles of your business can help us to make recommendations that prevent fluids for your inkjet coding equipment from expiring while sitting on your stocking shelves. This also allows us to recommend purchasing more fluids to have on hand when you expect an increase in demand, reducing the likelihood that you will be stuck with down equipment due to not having the ink or solvent you require.
  2. Equipment Maintenance Schedules – If your business tends to be cyclical in nature, we can sync preventive maintenance schedules to your slower production periods. This allows your equipment to run optimally during your peak production times while planning your service interventions for times when you have less demand on your equipment. Knowing your preferred maintenance schedule also ensures that you have all parts needed to accomplish your maintenance actions without having unnecessary supplies sitting on your stocking shelves.
  3. Training Programs – We find that customers with seasonal swings in their business tend to have seasonal workers to help with the increased demand in production. Novice workers can make mistakes that lead to equipment damage. Operator training programs synced with your unique business cycle can help prevent mistakes and keep your production running as smoothly as possible. This also protects your investment in your coding and labeling equipment.

 

We believe that customers are best served when we can partner in every aspect of their coding and labeling operations. This holistic approach allows us to maximize efficiencies while driving tangible value throughout a long-term partnership. Let us be the coding and labeling experts so you don’t have to be.

  • Is training production line workers creating a challenge? No problem!  Posted 9 years ago
    Companies rely on engineers or technicians to keep production lines up and running. These job functions are essential to hitting production targets, so it is key that their skill level on equipment is proficient. When making the decision to replace this equipment, the amount of time and money that will have to be invested in training your labor is a major deciding factor.
  • Don’t let fast drying ink slow down your CIJ coding process Posted 3 years ago
    Continuous inkjet printers (CIJ) use super-fast drying solvent-based inks. One of the technology challenges presented by these inks is that they aren’t too particular wherethey dry. With CIJ technology, the formation of drops from an inkjet stream creates a mist (or satellite drops) which builds up a layer of ink over time on the components inside the CIJ print head, causing print failure. Routine cleaning of ink with solvent from the components in a print head is required to maintain best print quality and uptime.
