Yes, CLARiSUITE has ODBC capability (open database connectivity), this means that data may be sourced from a variety of compatible platforms, including Access, SQL, Excel etc.

The CIFF template is still required, however, data for some of the fields may be populated from one or more data sources.
CLARiNET has an API (application programming interface). This allows software developers to interact with CLARiNET from their own application.

CLARiNET also has an OPC server (open platform communication), this allows CLARiNET to connect directly to factory automation systems, allowing control of printed data and logged information to be managed directly. The OPC server operates as a service, meaning the CLARiNET application does not need to be running for the server to be effective.

We offer Preventative Maintenance Service contracts which provide scheduled maintenance days to help prevent downtime and ensure coders are working at optimum efficiency.

We recommend that each coder on-site is serviced a minimum of twice per annum. The length of each visit depends on how many coders the customer has on-site – Engineers can service up to 6 coders in 1 day.

The average contract includes 2 x 1-day visits to be scheduled within a 12 month period (if 6 or fewer coders on-site). A 10% discount is applied to our standard day rate.

The Zodiac Range is designed to require very little maintenance, particularly compared to competitor products.

To maintain print quality it is recommended that the printhead is cleaned at every ribbon change using printhead wipes. For details on how to clean a Zodiac printhead, please watch the tutorial here.

Keeping the Zodiac printhead clean and the machine generally free of debris is the only routine maintenance required to keep the Zodiac running in top condition. Further information can be found in the Zodiac Operator Manual.
