D118i Intelligent Thermal Transfer Overprinter

D118i is DIKAI's newly developed next-generation intelligent TTO printer. Featuring an innovative patented structure and operating principle, it balances performance and cost, and can replace traditional ribbon coders for coding on films, labels, and other materials. Equipped with a 7-inch smart screen and patented control algorithms, it supports on-device editing with stable print quality. Compared with traditional ribbon coding machines, D118i delivers better-looking codes and easier operation. It is compatible with multiple types of TTO ribbons, enabling markings with properties such as oil resistance, retort/boiling resistance, abrasion resistance, and freeze resistance.

Product case

Product features

Innovative Design

No air supply required: patented intermittent electric drive structure for environments without compressed air

Patented structure: no ribbon door needed; simple operation with stable print performance

Print speed: up to 200 ppm to meet medium- and low-speed line requirements

Strong adhesion: with different TTO ribbon types, prints can achieve oil resistance, retort/boiling resistance, abrasion resistance, and more

Easy Upgrade & Replacement

Power on and print: direct replacement for traditional high-speed ribbon coders—no preheating and no manual type changes

Compact structure: lightweight and space-saving; easy to install on space-limited packaging machines, especially compact vertical machines

Traceability: flexible printing of real-time date/time for product traceability

Hot-swappable operation screen: one screen can be shared across multiple machines

Smart Operation

7-inch smart touchscreen: clear UI and fast response

On-device editing: edit print content directly on the machine—no PC required, easier on-site management, higher efficiency

Multi-content support: prints date, time, text, variables, and graphics; content can be edited freely within the print area

Fast file switching: stores up to 2,000 files on the screen for quick changeovers

Eco-Friendly & Efficient

Clean and safe: uses TTO ribbons—non-toxic, odor-free, no dust; ideal for environmentally controlled workshops and for food/pharma industries

Controlled consumables: adjustable character size; minimum 0.5 mm gap between prints on the ribbon to reduce costs

Long-life design: longer ribbons reduce change frequency and increase continuous uptime

Less packaging waste: TTO printing does not damage packaging materials, reducing scrap
