How a syringe barrel moves through the Vinci

Vinci 1452 hopper and feeder loading parts

1

Load

Barrels go in the hopper. The feeder lines them up and places each one on the dial. A vibratory bowl feeder is available for the smallest parts.

2

Treat and print

Flame or FieroSil pretreatment makes the ink bond to plastic. The dial indexes each barrel under the screen and prints the graduations in register.

Syringe Barrel Printing FAQ

How many syringe barrels per hour?

Up to 4,300 per hour. That is 72 a minute, and the machine is rated to run around the clock.

Can it print graduations and scale marks?

Yes. The dial holds each barrel in register under the screen, so fine graduations land in the same place on every part.

Will the ink stay on the plastic?

Flame or FieroSil pretreatment is available on the machine, so the ink bonds to polypropylene and other plastics before it prints.

Can I run different barrel sizes?

Yes. Swing the dryer out, swap the dial and tooling in one step, and run the next size. Changeover takes minutes.

What else can it print?

Dosage cups, labware glass, suction canisters, pens, spark plugs and other small cylindrical parts.

How long does delivery take?

A fully automatic Vinci 1452 typically ships in about 6 weeks. It is built in Farmington, Connecticut with a 1 year limited warranty.
