The measures, which were recommended in a report released today by the agency s Counterfeit Drug Task Force, emphasize certain regulatory actions and the use of new technologies for safeguarding the integrity of the U.S. drug supply.» (FDA News Release) Track & Trace Drugmakers Looking for Track-and-Trace Across the Supply Chain «The buzz around serialization and track-and-trace in the pharmaceutical industry has largely been focused on protecting the downstream supply chain, but companies are increasingly looking at the business benefits upstream as well.» (Phil Taylor, SecuringPharma) Serialization Europe Shows the Way to Pharmaceutical Serialization «Through government regulations and/or standards organizations, Europe is out in front when it comes to serialization in pharmaceutical and medical device packaging applications.» (Posted by Healthcare Packaging) Real time packaging information QR Codes a new packaging dimension «The QR codes are a fantastic opportunity to communicate to the customer, without increasing packaging size or label space Using the mobile phone technology, it is possible to link to provenance stories about the product, or, indeed, stories behind the packaging, to far greater depth including the use of video footage all tailored to the mobile phone screen.» (Packaging News) Swiss Marking & Printing Technology by Hapa

6 redcube crafting the difference redcube is Hapa s compact UV Drop on Demand Piezo inkjet printer for high-end marking. The system can be configured to meet the conditions of any given production process and is easily integrated into any packaging system. Codes, texts and graphics of photographic quality are printed in a single pass with solvent-free UV curing inks on a wide range of lacquered or non-lacquered substrates. Realize marking and barcode printing as well as Track & Trace, serialization and other anti-counterfeiting measures, effortlessly. The redcube delivers flexibility.it is easy to install, economical to maintain and efficient to operate. Fewer Changeovers, Lower Operating Costs The redcube interferes with your line up to 15 times less than other common marking technologies. The redcube typically prints up to 1 million data matrices with 4 lines of variable codes before it needs refilling. Highest Barcode Grading Precise, consistent high-contrast marking of variable data and GS1 compliant codes even at top production speeds. Verifiable Effectiveness The first print is a good print. Reliability and uniformity of print results saves time and cuts waste during duction processes and throughout the supply chain. More uptime means improved OEE.

7 Grading Don t blame the camera It could be the print The redcube achieves higher contrast results compared to alternative marking technologies. Pre-lacquering of substrates is not required. Data density The redcube can print more data in less space at high production line speeds than other marking and coding technologies, reliably and repeatably, with A grading. with quality Durability and resistance The print media can be hot, cold, rough, smooth, delicate, sturdy, porous, non-porous, rigid or flexible. Send us a sample of your material for testing. Image perception Brand quality prints supported by full graphical printing capability. redcube is Hapa s printing experience applied to the marking and coding application. Content redcube prints logos, graphics, static text, barcodes, serialized and variable data effortlessly. Swiss Marking & Printing Technology by Hapa

8 Performance has never been easier on your line simplicity redcube software suite RC Control supports the complete printing, marking and coding functional workflow. Artwork creation Ease of operation The ergonomic RC Control is designed with a strong focus on usability and operator workflow. It allows the easy management of your artwork, marking and printing. Template management Print job control Collation and validation of print template components Management of streamed (or static) serialized and variable data Real time print image rendering Printing management and UV curing control The user friendly design of the RC Control software and robust and durable redcube simplifies and speeds up installation, setup, maintenance and service.

9 flexibility It s easy redcube uses multiple industry interfacing standards for maximum integration flexibility. Simply define the redcube boundaries within your existing production system. redcube control software Thanks to its flexibility, the redcube can be integrated anywhere within your packaging and printing process, whether running standalone or fully integrated within your ERP, track and track, visioning or line management system.

10 Easier operation with better results and reliability DOD Piezo technology The print technology of choice for most existing and emerging inkjet applications. DOD inkjet is fully-digital and non-contact. Non-contact printing means no stress to substrates, even if temperature-sensitive. The long-lasting printhead has the ability to jet ink in a highly controllable and reliable manner with accuracy and precision, resulting in sharp, smudge-proof text, codes and graphics. UV inks Cured instantly, UV inks accommodated high printing speeds and products that are ready immediately for further inline processing. The widest range of substrates can be used, whether flexible or rigid, coated or uncoated. Instant curing halts the absorption of the ink, resulting in color of unsurpassed consistency, clarity and durability. The inks are pre-mixed and ready to use. Win time with print heads that need little maintenance, and that perform reliably even in the toughest start-stop environment. Reduce line stoppages, maintenance and product rejects: Higher tolerance of ambient temperature and humidity means lower decap time (than solvent or water based ink technologies) Larger print volumes per refill print millions of standard 4 lines of data + data matrix before ink needs to be refilled Wider range of substrates acceptance requires less packaging specific line maintenance, lower stock control and inventory management.
