PEX-2000 Print Engine: Seamless Integration and Advanced Performance
Highly Compatible with Label Applicator Integration
– The PEX-2000 features a 14% smaller rear section, making it more compact and easier to maintain and mount to label applicators in any orientation.
– Supports both 25-pin and 15-pin D-Sub socket connectors and emulations for major printer brands’ GPIO, simplifying integration and ensuring easy replacement.
– Customizable printer language firmware ensures compatibility with major printer languages, eliminating the need to redesign your template commands or print files when switching or upgrading systems.
Advanced Performance for Diverse Applications
– The industry-first adjustable peel-off module in metal supports peel angles from -18° to -3°, providing flexibility for applicator integration and easy scalability for a variety of applications.
– The top black mark sensor allows the use of labels with black marks on the print side, such as preprinted labels.
– The optional RFID encoding module is perfect for emerging applications, like item-level RFID labeling in apparel, and supports long-distance back-feed for overstriking bad RFID labels.
Reliable Design to Maximize Uptime
– A full metal chassis ensures durability and resilience in harsh environments, making the PEX-2000 ideal for demanding applications.
– With a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of up to 22,000 hours, the PEX-2000 is built for 24/7 mission-critical operations, maximizing uptime and productivity.
– The magnetic lock on the media door tightly seals it, even under vibration or when mounted in any orientation, ensuring secure media handling.
Mechanism Design for Smooth Operations
– Easy Media Handling and Calibration: Equipped with top and bottom sensors that can be adjusted to different locations for easy setup and calibration. The rear label holder cover is designed for easy removal, giving users additional space to clean sensors and maintain the printer.
– Wide Media Handling Space: Accommodates media up to 55mm max, simplifying media installation.
– Quick Printhead Removal: A one-push, quick-release design allows for effortless printhead removal and replacement.
– Compact Design for Easy Repairs: Once installed on a label applicator, the rear chassis can be easily lifted and pulled out in two simple steps, saving valuable shop floor space for repairs and component replacement.
Remote Management and Monitoring for Enhanced Serviceability
– SOTI Connect (web-based) allows remote printer management over the internet, providing real-time monitoring from a single dashboard. IT staff can deploy, configure, and update print engines from one console, and set up automated notifications based on predefined conditions to alert relevant stakeholders when action is needed.
– TSC Console (on-premise) enables wireless or wired connections for remote management, monitoring, and troubleshooting of print engines. It also supports TSC Sense Care for tracking printhead (TPH) usage and scheduling component replacements based on TPH odometer data.
With these advanced features, the PEX-2000 Print Engine ensures reliable, efficient, and scalable performance for high-demand labeling operations, while simplifying integration, maintenance, and remote monitoring.
