#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. 

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.

Meenjet MX1 fits the bill for white ink printer need

We are receiving more and more colored ink printer inquiries, specifically for white or yellow colored inks. Customers have long needed to code on dark surfaces, from amber beer bottles to black PVC pipe. As covered in an earlier blog post, until recently manufacturers didn't have many options other than a pigmented continuous inkjet system. 

Major Brands Issue Nationwide Recalls This Week

Two major food brands in the United States were in the news this week with nationwide food recalls. Chef Boyardee issued a recall of over 2,800 pounds of mislabeled chicken and rice products with undeclared allergens. Pillsbury also issued a recall for over 12,000 cases of their Unbleached All-Purpose Flour after a random inspection revealed traces of salmonella.
