MPERIA® A-Serie
The MPERIA® A-Series print and apply label system is simplicity in its finest form; enabling consistent and precise label placement with an advanced safety design in a compact frame that enables easy installation on your production line — even in confined spaces. Built with your production in mind, the A-Series is the industrial label print and apply system you’ve been looking for. Multiple applicators and configurations for virtually any production line ensure your label hits the mark. No need for bulky cages or bolt-on protection systems thanks to fewer moving parts and trap points. Seamlessly integrate label verification and validation without expensive middleware.

Universal Controller and Control Software for Marking Systems: MPERIA®
MPERIA® is your central control platform for all marking technologies – whether UV lasers, CO₂ lasers, fiber lasers, inkjet printers, or labeling systems. Instead of configuring each system separately, you control all production lines and marking solutions via a single, unified interface. Centralized management – scalable locally and globally Whether a single production line or distributed sites: MPERIA® enables centralized monitoring and control of all marking processes – efficient, secure, and flexibly expandable. Intuitive, user-friendly operation The user interface is touch-optimized, multilingual, and immediately intuitive – even without prior technical knowledge. This minimizes training effort and helps avoid typical operating errors. Seamless integration into your IT and production environment MPERIA® supports all common interfaces – such as TCP/IP, OPC, PLCs, barcode scanners, or camera connections. This allows the platform to be easily integrated into existing automation and data infrastructures. Real-time control & maximum process reliability Respond dynamically to product changes, start print jobs, or process variable data – in real time and synchronized across multiple lines. This reduces downtime and significantly increases production reliability. Conclusion: With MPERIA®, you intelligently and centrally automate your entire marking process. You increase efficiency, reduce sources of error, and maintain full control in any production environment – with just one system.

Thermal Inkjet Printers
Thermal inkjet printers, summarized by us in the VIAjet™ L series, are high-resolution marking technologies. This cartridge-based marking system is a cost-effective alternative to continuous inkjet and thermal transfer printers. Each time the cartridge is swapped, the printhead is automatically replaced within seconds, so you benefit from consistently high print quality. Print variable data, graphics and text at high speeds on a variety of substrates with our L-Series thermal inkjet printers. Whether marking corrugated cartons, barcodes on coated and uncoated materials, or expiration dates on glossy labels: These and many more examples are excellent applications for our VIAjet L-Series thermal inkjet (TIJ) printers.

Piezo Inkjet Printers
Our VIAjet™ T-Series printheads are based on piezo inkjet printing technology. This industrial marking system is ideal for printing high-resolution text, graphics, barcodes and more on a variety of products and packaging materials. Compared to other brands, our piezo inkjet printer features up to 35% lower ink consumption than other brands. Discover the excellent print quality of our piezo inkjet printers.

DOD Inkjet Printers
Our VIAjet™ V-Series drop-on-demand valve printheads are considered the most durable and reliable printheads in the industry. This marking system offers very good print results even at fast print speeds, requires little maintenance and, thanks to its robustness against dust and moisture, can be used in any working environment.

MPERIA® CO2 Laser
CO₂ laser marking: Precise. Economical. Versatile. The MPERIA® CO₂ laser is the proven solution for industrial CO₂ laser marking. It produces razor-sharp markings on a wide range of surfaces such as paper, cardboard, plastics (PET, PVC, PE), glass, or coated materials. The system guarantees high-contrast, permanent markings at maximum speeds – all with minimal maintenance requirements. Every production environment is unique. That is why we support you with individual consultation instead of one-size-fits-all offers. Together, we define the ideal laser configuration (power & wavelength) – precisely tailored to your material, your line integration, and the required throughput. Test it free of charge now: We create a sample marking directly on your product. This gives you maximum confidence and lets you see the result in black and white before you make your decision.

MPERIA® Fiber Laser
Fiber laser marking – durable, high-contrast & economical MPERIA® fiber lasers offer a powerful solution for precise, permanent marking on a wide range of substrates – including metal (such as stainless steel, aluminum, copper), ceramics, flexible films (fiber film version), and industrial components. With high speed, minimal maintenance requirements, and excellent integrability, they are ideal for modern production environments. Our systems produce high-contrast, abrasion-resistant markings – even at high volumes and under demanding conditions. They operate without ink, are energy-efficient, and can be seamlessly integrated into existing equipment. Curious whether a fiber laser is suitable for your application? Request a free sample marking now – tested under real-world conditions directly on your original material.

MPERIA® UV Laser
Precise. Contactless. Gentle. The MPERIA® UV laser offers a modern solution for fine, abrasion-resistant marking of sensitive materials – ideal for industries with high quality requirements such as medical technology, electronics, or the pharmaceutical industry. Thanks to the short UV wavelength (355 nm), the material is subjected to minimal thermal stress. This enables razor-sharp markings on plastics, ceramics, cable insulation, films, or packaged medical products – without deformation or burn marks. Despite its extreme precision, the UV laser operates at high speed, with low maintenance requirements and high efficiency. Its compact design and intuitive control allow it to be seamlessly integrated into your production line. Request a free sample marking on your original material now – for maximum confidence in your decision.

MPERIA® Laser
Replace complex printing processes with our maintenance-free MPERIA® laser systems. Whether a robust fiber laser for films, a versatile CO₂ laser for packaging, or a gentle UV laser for heat-sensitive products – we offer the technologically leading solution for every surface. Benefit from permanent markings without consumables, maximum operational reliability, and seamless integration into your production line.
