Meet X-BAR: Reliability at Its Core

Engineered for extended run times, rapid starts, and minimal downtime, the X-BAR print module for inline printing ensures consistent operation and eliminates downtime, maximizing productivity and cost efficiency. It integrates with legacy systems for inline variable data printing, with up to 1,000 feet per minute throughput and 600 dpi resolution.


The Changeover Game Changer

X-BAR enables faster restarts between print jobs, maximizing production efficiency. This inline digital printing capability ensures minimal delay when transitioning from one job to the next, enhancing overall operational productivity.

The End of Charge Shorts

Aging inline inkjet systems often suffer from charge shorts, disrupting ink droplet delivery and causing inconsistent print quality. Switching to the Kao Collins X-BAR eliminates these issues, ensuring reliable jetting for consistent, high-quality printing without interruptions.

Streakers Forever Gone

Zero streakers minimizes downtime, reprinting, waste, and customer dissatisfaction.
