This strategic collaboration enables LEIBINGER to serve the UK market more directly and effectively. LEIBINGER argues that its systems support UK markets by responding to both technical performance and regulatory compliance.
LEIBINGER's Innovative IQJET: Intelligent Coding System
As part of the collaboration, Rotech has introduced the IQJET, a printer that is the world’s first intelligent coding system, offering up to five years of service-free operation. IQJET’s intelligent design automatically adjusts printing parameters in real-time. This optimizes ink consumption, reduces waste, and improves overall operational efficiency.
How the IQJET Saves Costs and Boosts Operational Efficiency
As a result, businesses can achieve cost savings of up to 50% compared to traditional continuous inkjet (CIJ) systems. The printer manages ink flow with precision, ensuring every drop is used efficiently. Combined with its ultra-low ink consumption and fully depletable XXL cartridges, the IQJET delivers a highly economical and environmentally friendly coding solution, according to Rotech. It also has a fully automatic nozzle seal technology – a signature of LEIBINGER Printers.
Rotech's Expertise in the UK Market
Rotech in Welwyn Garden City (Hertfordshire) contributes in-depth application knowledge, close customer relationships, and decades of experience with a wide range of printing technologies.
LEIBINGER and Rotech’s Complementary Technologies
“Our mission has always been to provide reliable, easy-to-use systems that meet our customers’ needs and solve their challenges,” said Richard Pether, General Manager at Rotech. “Over the years, we've offered various technologies, from hot foil to thermal transfer and thermal inkjet, each with unique features and benefits. The LEIBINGER range of continuous inkjet printers is a welcome addition to our range and has been well received by our customers, across many applications.”
LEIBINGER Continuous Inkjet Systems: A Perfect Match for High-Speed Lines
Rotech’s Thermal Inkjet printers are used throughout UK markets but have their limitations in high-speed production lines or in changing environments. In response, LEIBINGER’s continuous inkjet systems excel in these conditions, complementing Rotech’s portfolio, according to the company.
“We are very excited about our collaboration. I’d say this is a perfect match! Rotech and LEIBINGER share the same commitment: Innovative technology that delivers real value to customers, empowering them to achieve their goals - maximum productivity and efficiency. For over 75 years, this has been the foundation of LEIBINGER, ensuring smooth production and packaging processes,” said Tim Richards, International Area Sales Manager at LEIBINGER.
Quality and Reliability of LEIBINGER Printers
With 85% of manufacturing carried out in-house, LEIBINGER guarantees exceptional quality, making them a sound investment for businesses seeking long-term performance and reliability, Rotech argued.
“To succeed in a mature market, a new product must offer clear advantages,” said Pether. “LEIBINGER printers do just that, taking convenience, cleanliness, and cost-effectiveness to new levels. Having witnessed the birth of the CIJ printer back in the 1980s, it has been fascinating to see how the technology has evolved. This perspective has allowed us to fully appreciate how much of a step forward the LEIBINGER range of printers are.”
