In today’s economic climate, budgeting is more critical than ever. Prices for energy, raw materials, and labor are rising, putting a strain on budgets across industries. When investing in new equipment like coding machines, avoiding unforeseen costs is paramount. Understanding the total cost of ownership (TCO) ensures that the initial investment doesn’t become a financial burden down the line.
Beyond the Initial Purchase Price
Consider purchasing a car: the sticker price is just the beginning. Additional expenses such as fuel, maintenance, insurance, and unexpected repairs quickly add up. The same principle applies to industrial printers. It’s crucial to consider all potential costs associated with the machine over its lifetime to ensure you get the best value.
TCO Calculations For You:
At Factronics USA, we provide TCO calculations for continuous inkjet (CIJ), thermal transfer overprinters (TTO), and laser coders. These tools help you forecast the lifetime costs of your printer, giving you a clear picture of your investment. Contact us here to calculate your TCO and make an informed decision.
Cost-Saving Features and Considerations
Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) Printers:
- Service Intervals and Self-Service: Choose models with long service intervals and self-service options to reduce maintenance costs.
- 2. User Interface: An intuitive user interface minimizes training time and reduces the likelihood of costly errors.
- 3. Consumables: Linx’s fast-drying 1240 ink supports 40% of all applications, reducing stock management complexity. The upside-down ink cartridge design ensures maximum ink usage, eliminating waste.
Laser Coders:
- No Consumables: Laser coders do not require ink or solvents, significantly lowering operating costs.
- Durability: Robust design and long tube life enhance efficiency and reduce downtime.
Thermal Transfer Overprinters (TTO):
- Ribbon Saving Modes: These modes extend ribbon life, reducing the frequency of replacements.
- Long Length Ribbons and Fast Changes: Minimize downtime and labor costs with efficient ribbon management.
Large Character Markers:
- Cost Efficiency: These markers are a more economical alternative to label printing.
