The Dynacode II is a thermal transfer overprinter for direct printing on foil packaging, switching freely between continuous and intermittent mode to match the packaging line. In continuous mode the printhead stays still while the film is guided through; in intermittent mode the printhead moves over the film and returns to its starting position while the packaging machine is briefly at a standstill.

Transfer ribbon rolls up to 900 m keep production running longer between changes, and left- and right-mounted bracket systems adapt to almost any installation position, horizontal or vertical. A 7-inch touch-screen colour display with layout preview handles day-to-day operation.

A splash-proof IP version (Dynacode II IP) is available on the same platform for wash-down environments — see carl-valentin-dynacode-ii-ip.
