Why Does The Pharmaceutical Industry Need An Online Inkjet Printer?

March 11, 2025

What is an online inkjet printer?

An online inkjet printer is a non-contact printing device that can print text, numbers, barcodes, QR codes and other information on the surface of products or packaging in real time. It can be directly integrated into the production line to achieve high-speed and continuous inkjet operation, meeting the high requirements of the pharmaceutical industry for identification.

Application scenarios of online inkjet printers in the pharmaceutical industry

Online inkjet printers are widely used in various links of the pharmaceutical industry, and specific application scenarios include:

1. Drug packaging

Medicine bottles: Print drug name, dosage, production batch number, expiration date and other information on glass or plastic medicine bottles.

Medicine boxes: Print product information, instructions for use, anti-counterfeiting codes, etc. on the outer box of the drug.

Aluminum-plastic plate (blister packaging): Print production date, batch number, expiration date, etc. on the blister packaging of capsules and tablets.

Soft bag packaging: Print drug name, batch number, expiration date, etc. on soft bags such as infusion bags and plasma bags.

2. Medical devices

Syringes: Print scale, specifications, batch number and other information on syringes.

Infusion sets: Print product information, batch number, expiration date, etc. on the infusion set packaging.

Medical catheters: Print specifications, batch number, instructions for use, etc. on the surface of the catheter.

Surgical instrument packaging: Print batch number, sterilization date, expiration date, etc. on the sterilization packaging of surgical instruments.

3. Pharmaceutical raw materials and intermediates

Packaging of raw materials: Print batch number, production date, expiration date and other information on the packaging bag or container of raw materials.

Intermediate packaging: Print identification information on the packaging of pharmaceutical intermediates to facilitate production traceability.

4. Logistics and warehousing

Outer boxes: Print logistics information, batch number, destination code, etc. on the outer boxes of drug transportation.

Pallets: Print batch information, barcodes, etc. on the labels of drug pallets for warehousing and logistics management.

Why does the pharmaceutical industry need online inkjet printers?

1. Meet the requirements of laws and regulations

Countries around the world have very strict requirements for the labeling of the pharmaceutical industry. For example:

**FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration)** requires that drugs and medical devices must be labeled with production batch number, expiration date, UDI (unique device identification) and other information.

The EU's drug regulations and medical device regulations (MDR) also clearly require the printing of key information.

China's "Drug Administration Law" and "Medical Device Supervision and Administration Regulations" also have detailed provisions on the content of the label.

Online inkjet printers can help companies print this information quickly and accurately to ensure that products meet regulatory requirements.

2. Achieve full traceability

The pharmaceutical industry has extremely high requirements for product traceability. Through the production batch number, barcode, QR code and other information printed by the online inkjet printer, companies can achieve full traceability from raw materials to finished products. Once a quality problem occurs, the problem batch can be quickly located and recalled to minimize risks.

3. Improve safety

Online inkjet printers can print anti-counterfeiting codes or unique device identifiers (UDI) to help consumers verify the authenticity of products and prevent counterfeit and substandard drugs and medical devices from entering the market.

4. Improve production efficiency

Online inkjet printers can be directly integrated into the production line to achieve high-speed and continuous inkjet operations to meet the needs of large-scale production in the pharmaceutical industry. At the same time, its non-contact printing method avoids product damage and further improves production efficiency.

5. Optimize supply chain management

By printing logistics information (such as batch numbers and barcodes), companies can better manage warehousing and logistics and improve the transparency and efficiency of the supply chain.

Core advantages of online inkjet printers

High-precision printing: supports small characters and high-resolution printing to ensure clear and readable labels.

Non-contact printing: avoids contamination or damage to drugs or packaging.

High-speed printing: adapts to the high-speed production line requirements of the pharmaceutical industry.

Flexible and diverse: supports a variety of fonts, graphics, barcodes, QR codes and other printing contents.

Environmental protection and energy saving: uses environmentally friendly inks to reduce pollution and low energy consumption

Conclusion

Online inkjet printers are not only an essential tool for the pharmaceutical industry to meet regulatory requirements, but also a key device for improving quality management, traceability and production efficiency. Through accurate and efficient inkjet solutions, pharmaceutical companies can better ensure product safety, improve market competitiveness, and provide consumers with more transparent and reliable product information.
