The SHICAI P70 is an online inkjet printer aimed at cartons and outer boxes, where high-resolution date, batch, barcode and QR marking on secondary packaging matters. It is the model to specify when the main job is clear, scannable case-level coding at line speed rather than tiny component marks.
Pair it with encoder sync and it keeps every carton registered as the line runs.
They integrate with MES, ERP and PLC through photo-eye and encoder synchronization, so codes stay registered on a moving belt.
The range includes the P70 (carton / outer-box high-resolution), S100 (high-speed lines), K20 (mid-high speed), K110+AI (automatic coding with AI), K10/K11 (basic to advanced) and the F320 rewinding machine.
Where serialization is required, the coder becomes part of the MES: it pulls the next serial, prints it and reports back so nothing is missed.
Key points:
- SHICAI inline coders print variable data – QR, barcodes, serial and lot numbers – at up to about 406 m/min at 600 DPI.
- Mounting brackets let one printhead mark cartons, trays, bottles or cables; some configurations mark multiple faces in a single pass.
- Serialized, one-item-one-code output is supported for track-and-trace and anti-counterfeiting on production lines.
Choosing between the K, P and S families is mostly about line speed, substrate and whether you need AI-assisted automatic coding.
SHICAI (Shanghai Shicai Inkjet Technology Co., Ltd.) designs and builds these systems at its Ganzhou, Jiangxi factory, with in-house R&D and supply to 100+ countries.
