For applications requiring immediate dry times on non-porous surfaces, Squid Ink’s CoPilot Gemini printing system can also run UV LED curable inks. With up to 5.6 in. of print height and print speeds up to 220 ft/min, the CoPilot Gemini provides a cost-effective solution for making a mark on a wide variety of products and substrates.

Designed for label replacement, it easily prints GS1 barcodes, nutrition panels, and ingredient lists. Additionally, the CoPilot Gemini utilizes the same active ink system found in Squid Ink’s CoPilot Max printing system, allowing users to tilt or rotate the printhead in any direction without making height adjustments to the ink supply.

The CoPilot Gemini features a 4.3 in. full-color touchscreen that allows users to access the system’s internal messages and print functions. Messages are created and edited on Squid Ink’s easy-to-use Orion PC Software and transferred via USB, Ethernet, wireless, or optional Windows tablet. The tablet is ideal for users who want message creation and editing functionality on the production floor.
