Domino’s new high-power laser enables manufacturers to code larger, more complex designs clearly and quickly on plastics, glass, and other challenging beverage substrates.
Domino Printing Sciences (Domino), a global expert in advanced variable data printing solutions, has expanded its laser coding portfolio with the launch of the Dx1060i CO² Laser Coder. The new 100-watt CO² laser coder is designed to help beverage manufacturers maintain smooth production while handling more complex coding requirements. Engineered for high-speed environments, the Dx1060i delivers sharp, durable codes across a range of challenging packaging materials.
Complex codes, including GS1-compliant 2D formats, require higher power to ensure consistent legibility at speed. The enhanced performance of the Dx1060i laser coder enables manufacturers to code up to 90,000 bottles per hour, maintaining clarity even on reflective or complex surfaces. This eliminates the usual trade-offs between speed and code quality that is common with lower power systems.
The Dx1060i offers over 50 beam delivery options and a 360º rotatable scanhead for seamless integration into existing production lines. It connects easily to existing back-end production and business systems, avoiding delays that result from integration issues. Optional services such as Domino Cloud Interface, Coding Automation, R-Series vision control, and SafeGuard support, including AR-enabled remote assistance, give operators additional insight and help minimise downtime.
“The Dx1060i gives our customers the power and flexibility they need to keep beverage production running efficiently,” said Frauke Schroeder, Senior Product Manager – Laser, Domino. “It supports evolving international standards, helps reduce waste, and is built to meet future regulatory requirements, including GS1 and 21CFR Part11 compliance.”
The Dx1060i also suits niche applications, from GS1-compliant 2D codes and serialisation to detailed markings on wine corks or decorative wood surfaces. Its chemical-free, energy-efficient design supports sustainability targets while maintaining high-quality results at speed.
Part of Domino’s x-Generation of high-resolution laser coding solutions, the Dx1060i complements the existing range, while providing higher power and performance for demanding applications.
