Coding on Pharmaceutical Vials

High-contrast traceability coding on vials

Inkjet printers and laser marking systems for printing on vials

The challenge of a vial’s small size and reduced radius can be met with select continuous inkjet printers and laser marking systems. Dedicated Videojet pharmaceutical and OEM specialists can help you select the ideal solution for printing and marking on vials, whether plastic, glass or aluminum.

The code’s placement and configuration, vial size, and sequence of packaging operations all require careful consideration when marking on vials. Attention to these details help ensure the integrity of the data throughout the distribution chain and product lifecycle.

Certain Videojet inkjet and fiber laser marking systems are well-suited for providing clear and rugged “on-vial” traceability codes, as well as:

2D barcodes marked at speeds up to 500 products per minute with fiber laser markers
High-quality human and machine-readable codes on robust plastic and metal
Minimal maintenance intervention
Compact and versatile designs for easy integration within the packaging line
