The Linx SL1 is a compact, cost effective coder designed to fit easily into production environments where space is constrained. An ultra-fast mirror system enables faster coding than other lasers in its class, while using much less laser energy but delivering 20% more power. No routine servicing or consumables mean the lifetime costs of the Linx SL1 laser are favourable compared to other types of printer, with no variable costs.
