What Problems Does Online Laser Marking Solve for Inkjet Printers?

A comprehensive breakdown of how continuous/flying laser marking systems replace traditional continuous inkjet (CIJ) technology on high-speed production lines.

The primary value of Online Laser Marking (Flying Marking) lies in completely resolving a series of pain points inherent to traditional Continuous Inkjet Printers (CIJ) on high-speed assembly lines—specifically consumables dependency, frequent maintenance, and easily tampered markings.

By upgrading the marking process from 'physical ink deposition' to 'laser photo-thermal/photochemical reaction', it fundamentally revolutionizes how product identifiers (such as production dates, batch numbers, and QR codes) are applied in automated production.

1. Solving Core Pain Points of Traditional Inkjet Printers

Comparison Dimension

Traditional Inkjet Printer (CIJ/TIJ)

Online Laser Marking (Fly Marking)

Core Problem Solved

Consumables Cost

Requires continuous purchase of ink, solvents, and cleaning agents.

Zero consumables (only consumes electricity).

High ongoing operational & procurement expenses.

Equipment Maintenance

Nozzles clog easily; requires frequent cleaning & filter replacements.

Maintenance-free / Minimal maintenance (stable optical structure).

Production line efficiency loss due to frequent downtime.

Marking Durability

Easily wiped off with alcohol/solvents, or worn off over time.

Permanent mark (physical / chemical etching).

Counterfeiting, product diversion (grey market), and date tampering.

Environment & Safety

Ink contains Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) with strong odors.

Clean and non-toxic (only requires a dust/fume extraction unit).

Environmental non-compliance & cross-contamination in food/pharma.

Adhesion & Versatility

Poor adhesion on ultra-smooth, oily, or specialized materials.

Broad adaptability (by matching different laser wavelengths).

Difficulty marking smooth PET, metal, or high-polymer materials.
