IIMAK said NETFlex+ produces dark, crisp prints at speeds up to 1,000mm/sec (40ips) and has been engineered with a thin coating, allowing it to match most OEM lengths. NETFlex+ has been developed to be an OEM-compatible, drop in replacement for the most common thermal transfer printers in the market including Videojet and Markem. 

IIMAK said that testing has confirmed NETFlex+ performs well at ambient and cold temperatures, and can print on a variety of substrates, from rough to smooth stock. 

Target applications include snack foods, fresh cut produce, fractional coffee packs and meat packaging, including chub packs, amongst others.

NETFlex+ is manufactured in the US at IIMAK’s Amherst, New York plant. It is sold worldwide through distribution and is available in the most common configurations.
