Hitachi UX2
Reliable industrial inkjet coding with easier maintenance
The Hitachi UX2 is designed for manufacturers that need clear, dependable codes without unnecessary interruption to production. Improved dot-control algorithms help maintain legibility at higher speeds, while the redesigned printhead and optional automated Safe-Clean Station help reduce routine operator intervention.
Enhanced code quality
Improved dot control helps produce clearer, more legible codes while production speeds increase.
Cleaner, safer operation
The optional Safe-Clean Station automatically cleans and dries the printhead, helping to reduce solvent waste and operator contact with fluids.
Quicker line changeovers
Preconfigured I/O connectors make it easier to move the printer between production lines and reduce setup errors.
Redesigned printhead
The updated printhead helps manage ink build-up, supporting longer reliable run times and consistent print quality.

- Continuous product identification on cables, pipes and extrusions
- Part numbers and traceability codes on manufactured components
Specify the UX2 coding requirement
For the Hitachi UX2, send the substrate, required code content and line speed, plus the available printhead mounting space. Identify changeover, cleaning and operator-access requirements. If the optional Safe-Clean Station is being considered, include the available space and planned operating routine.
What information helps assess code quality?
Send the product or packaging sample and a dimensioned example of the required message, including any traceability fields.
Is the Safe-Clean Station included in every setup?
It is described here as an optional station. Ask Seagle to confirm the supplied configuration and installation requirements in the quotation.
