#KeepCodingSimple

Our VP of Technical Service is Giving Us a Behind the Scenes Look at the Coding Industry

Haven’t you ever wondered why out of all of the printing technologies available at Sneed Coding Solutions we decided to choose thermal-inkjet technology(TIJ)? There’s more to #KeepingCodingSimple than just stating it, but who better to give us an in-depth look at how thermal-inkjet technology compares to other printing technologies than our VP of Technical Services, Charles Collins; he’s been in the industry for over a decade, so if anyone can tell you about all of the different printing technologies it would be him. However, before Charles begins to school us on coding and marking options, let’s take a look at his start in the industry. 

As a food production business, there are mandatory elements that must be present in your production line for you to properly produce and package your food products. A date code printer is one of them. However, how do you know which date code printer is the one for the job? Well, you have come to the right place. Below is detailed information regarding exactly how to choose the right date code printer for food production to hopefully help you make the right decision for your production line!

You always want to make an educated decision, especially when it comes to your business. While there are numerous areas of your business you can better educate yourself on, looking into the industrial aspects of marking and coding might just be beneficial. If you already have printing in your manufacturing or production line and want to make sure you are going about it in the most efficient and successful way, or if you are looking to stop outsourcing and bring this aspect of the business back in-house, you have come to the right place. Here are some inkjet printing basics—specifically continuous inkjet (CIJ) vs. thermal inkjet (TIJ) — to better educate you on the topic.

We partner with Overby Inkjet Solutions for a reason

I have known and worked with Todd and Jeff Overby for almost two decades - it's a relationship that predates when I first started Sneed Coding Solutions, Inc. There's a reason I decided to continue working with them when I started the company and it's a simple one. Quality. The OIS (Overby Inkjet Solutions) sticker on the front of a refurbished Videojet® inkjet coder has become synonymous with quality across the industry. 

American vapor company received a continuous inkjet printer with their packaging equipment

Darrell Suriff, owner of American Vapor Company in Austin, was one of Bryan's first customers when he started the business in early 2018 and he's been one of our most valued partners ever since. He initially reached out to us when the continuous inkjet printer that came with his new package filling equipment failed on delivery. They were unable to get the printer set up to print consistently without constant down time for reconfiguration. In fact, one day it started randomly spraying ink all over their production floor. 

Costly downtime from CIJ repair opens the door for SNEED-JET® Titan T6 Automatic printer

Son Vo is the operations manager at Tribute Energy / Tribute logistics in Houston, TX and he had a problem that is all too common for our customers. For the last few weeks, his team had been struggling with their continuous inkjet printer. It had been serviced several times, yet every time it came back fixed it would only be a matter of days before it was down again.
