Laser Coding Starts Here—No Consumables Needed
With Squid Ink laser coding systems, you can eliminate consumables and downtime—without sacrificing code quality.

✅ No consumables – No inks, no solvents, no ongoing supply costs. Just precise, efficient coding powered by laser technology.
✅ Low maintenance – Laser systems drastically reduce maintenance and keep your line running.

Replace Your TTO System Today!
Squid Ink’s SQ-UVT Series UV Laser Marking system creates permanent marking of text, time, date, bar codes, and more on flexible film packaging.

Designed to replace traditional thermal transfer overprint (TTO) systems, Squid Ink’s SQ-UVT Laser System changes the surface layer of packaging film to create permanent, high-quality codes without damaging the substrate.

Using a 355nm cold-coding laser beam, the SQ-UVT delivers crisp, precise marks with virtually no heat stress—protecting packaging materials from damage.
