As the distributor of multiple brands covering technologies from industrial inkjet, label print and apply, laser coding to gas analysis carrying out a physical inventory of spare parts can be daunting and I’ll go on record to say a stocktake it is one of the more unpleasant things one can do in life. The stock count is scheduled for 31st March  so for the first time (and possibly the last) we are trying to make this easier by having less inventory which means less to count so less time to complete this arduous task.

The sale is on everything we have in stock!! Unfortunately to be able to continue to support our customers we cant guarantee delivery on all parts but any order placed during the month of March where our promo code “SEE ANDI” is clearly mentioned will still include the discount even if it is invoiced in April 😉

So what is in the sale?

Every part in stock has a minimum 10% discount. Some items are discounted up to 30% .

Why not give us a call on 0800 MITECH with your current spare parts requirements and grab a deal. Ask for Andi

When filling juice bottles, label presence monitoring is performed right after the bottles are labeled. The greatest challenge in doing this is detecting dark labels on green or dark bottles.

The FT328 Energetic light scanner is designed just for this task. This sensor ensures reliable detection processes for all labels, independent of the color of the label and bottle.
