StackPrint Pro (TT-FPI-001): Comprehensive Solution for Offline Track & Trace Printing and Inspection

StackPrint Pro (TT-FPI-001): Comprehensive Solution for Offline Track & Trace Printing and Inspection

In modern manufacturing and packaging operations—especially in pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and FMCG—Track and Trace compliance is not just a regulatory requirement but a critical component of brand protection, logistics efficiency, and consumer safety. Recognizing these needs, Smidnya Technologies Pvt. Ltd. has developed the StackPrint Pro (TT-FPI-001): a standalone, offline system engineered for precise printing and inspection of serialized and batch information on cartons.

This innovative solution is ideal for manufacturers seeking reliable offline serialization without the complexity or cost of full in-line integration.

🧩 Key Components & Functional Description

The StackPrint Pro (TT-FPI-001) is built with precision and operator-friendliness in mind. Below are the major components that make it a reliable workhorse in any packaging environment:

1. Vacuum-Based Conveyor System

  • Ensures cartons are held firmly in place during transit across the print head.

  • Reduces vibration and slippage, which is crucial for maintaining print accuracy and inspection clarity.

  • Enables consistent motion control for high-speed operations.

2. Domino GX150i High-Resolution Inkjet Printer

  • Integrated into the system, the GX150i supports fast, high-quality coding with resolution up to 600 dpi.

  • Prints variable data such as batch numbers, expiry dates, 2D DataMatrix codes, and serialization information.

  • Recognized for low maintenance and fast ink-drying, ideal for porous and non-porous carton surfaces.

3. Printer Easy Adjustment Mechanism

  • Adjustable along multiple axes for precise alignment.

  • Facilitates quick changeovers between carton sizes or print positions, reducing downtime.

4. User-Friendly Carton Stacking Feeder

  • A mechanically simple yet ergonomically designed feeder.

  • Adjustable guides accommodate different carton dimensions (typically 80–300 mm length).

  • Easy refill and setup by a single operator.

5. Adjustable Roller Separator

  • Ensures proper spacing between cartons to avoid overlapping during printing and inspection.

  • Enhances image acquisition quality in inspection systems and maintains synchronization.

6. Carton Restacking Attachment

  • A mechanical lift system that re-stacks printed cartons without damaging the print.

  • Promotes better ergonomics, reducing strain on operators.

  • Prevents scratching, ink smudging, or mechanical wear on freshly printed cartons.

🔧 Troubleshooting & Operational Tips

Even the most robust systems may face operational challenges. Below is a troubleshooting guide to assist operators:

IssuePossible CauseRecommended Solution
Print is misalignedCarton feeder skew or incorrect printer positionRe-adjust printer position and carton guide rails
Missing or incomplete printsLow ink level or poor carton surface contactCheck ink cartridge and ensure vacuum conveyor suction
Double feeding of cartonsImproper roller separator settingRe-adjust roller separator for proper spacing
Ink smudgingInk drying time too slow or post-stack movementCheck ink specs and avoid carton friction post-printing
Vacuum conveyor not holding cartonVacuum pump fault or leakageInspect pump and check suction pipe for blocks or leaks
Printer not respondingCommunication failure or power supply issueRestart system, check all cables and Domino software
Restacking unit jammingMisaligned cartons or worn-out rollersClear jam manually and replace worn components

🛠️ Operator Benefits & Ergonomic Design

  • Tool-less adjustments save time during SKU changeovers.

  • Compact footprint ensures the machine can fit in smaller production areas.

  • Low learning curve for operators due to intuitive interface and mechanical simplicity.

  • Reduces human error by offering structured carton alignment and feeding.
