“When changing cartridges there is no mess and the display indicates when replacements are needed. This enables us to monitor levels so there are no excuses for staff not to change fluids and makeup at the right time.”
Paul Ash, Maintenance Technician, Britvic (case study)
“Across our 15 bakeries, we have 200 employees who interact with the printers on a daily basis. It is very important that each of them is comfortable operating the printers. With such an intuitive interface, it is easy for them to figure out how to use the printer.”
Anton de Leeuw, National Operations Manager, Sasko Bakeries (case study)
“The Videojet project team defined the exact requirements of our application prior to arriving on site for installation so we’d be in the best possible position for the new coding solution rollout.”
