DPM IV – industrial packaging identification

/fileadmin/user_upload/Produkttitelbilder/carl_valentin_dpm_4_titelbild.jpg

Limitless range of variants

Developing the DPM IIIxi into DPM IV has further developed one of the most flexible and precision thermal transfer direct printers towards perfection. The dimensions of the enhanced, more stable print mechanical equipment are identical with those of its predecessor. As such, no difficulties arise in replacing your printer with the newly developed, faster version.


The new DPM IV impresses with its significantly more up-to-date design. The chief innovations centre around the 7“ touch display allowing for intuitive manual operation of the device and a reduction of the cable connectors to just one. An even higher number of cycles comes from the increased print and back speed. Together with transfer ribbon saving, DPM IV is indispensable for installation in production and packaging systems.

  • 7“ touch-screen colour display
  • Over 20 variants available
  • Only one cable connection
  • Cable outlet, top, rear, side
  • Transfer ribbon saving
  • Print speed up to 500 mm/s
  • Dimensions compatible with DPM IIIxi
  • Display of remaining transfer ribbon for quick ribbon changes
  • All common interfaces for fast data exchange
  • Intuitive graphical user interface with icon buttons
  • WYSIWYG display with preview for verifying the layout
  • The DPM IV control unit is delivered as a vertically oriented so-called panel enclosure as standard. A horizontally aligned so-called desktop enclosure is also available as an option.
