Frequently asked Questions

Current lead time is approx. 6 months, depending on the specifications.

Mechanical components and laser optical components require periodic maintenance.
The system is designed to facilitate maintenance work.

Yes, you can.

There are no specific qualifications required, but it is recommended that operators be familiar with general machine handling. We will provide training for the operator.

Some technologies are patented by Qualicaps.

Please dispose of the machine as industrial waste according to the rules of the region where you use the machine.

There are no harmful emissions from the device.Regulations vary by region, so please contact your local representative.
(In Japan, we comply with the regulations of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare.)

For individual pricing, please contact your sales representative.

You can download it from the Print on Drug Website.

We have a demo printing machine available for you to observe and make samples.

It varies depending on the equipment, but it ranges from 1,500kg to 3,500kg.

You will need to secure a location for the equipment and provide the necessary utilities (power, pressure & vacuum).

Yes, we can accommodate your request.

Regulations vary by region, so please contact your local representative.

We exhibit at trade shows and hold webinars. We also offer virtual or in person demonstrations.

It depends on the conditions, but it costs no more than a cent per tablet.

They can print on most tablets, hard capsules, and soft capsules.
For UV laser printing, the material must contain titanium dioxide.
When tablets are transported inside the printer, if they have a special shape, they may not be transported (and printing may not be possible), and the transport speed may need to be reduced.

Since it is designed for mass printing and mass production, the design to be printed is the same design for all tablets.
If you need to print small quantities or different designs, please consider a lab machine.

In the case of offset printing, it is necessary to produce a design roll.
However, with laser printing and inkjet printing, it is possible to design and print freely with electronic data.

Please provide more information about your project and the object to be printed and we will be happy to advise what is best.

Our machine is designed primarily for pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals. Customers using our equipment are printing on tablets, hard capsules and soft capsules.

Offset printing and inkjet printing use edible inks. In the case of laser printing, only the laser beam is irradiated, so the effects on the human body are minor in both cases.

UV laser printing is based on the physical phenomenon that titanium dioxide changes from white to gray when irradiated with UV light, so color printing is not possible.

It is very dangerous to look directly at the laser with your eyes.
Inside the machine, the laser is heavily shielded and interlocked to prevent it from leaking outside the device.

UV laser printing machines require regular maintenance of the cooling system for the laser oscillator and the air purifier.
