Industrial label printers, Printing method Thermal transfer

Industrial barcode and label printers are designed for intensive continuous operation day and night in the most complex production conditions. Therefore, the design of the label printers is distinguished by a high level of reliability, shock resistance, hermeticity and vibration resistance.

Industrial printers have a simple design, and all their internal mechanisms have an increased production resource.

Industrial grade label printers can print barcodes using either a thermal direct printing method or a thermal transfer printing method that requires a ribbon .

The industrial label printers that you will find with us have resolution modifications of 203 dpi, 300 dpi, 406 dpi and 600 dpi .

How to choose an industrial label printer?

There are two ways to apply a barcode to a package. The first is expressed in the fact that the barcode is applied in a typography, where the package itself or the label is printed on it. For circulations of millions of copies, there is no other alternative. For such huge needs, it is most convenient to print the barcodes yourself. First, you can print labels in any quantity and with a wide variety of information. Second, you can print them directly where they will stick: in the warehouse, in the store, on the pallet, etc. But you will need to invest in label printing equipment and software.

When choosing an industrial label printer , you should consider the following factors:

• How many labels will you need to print?
• How long should the label be kept?
• What size will the labels be?
• In what conditions will the printer be used?

Industrial printers for printing labels are characterized by high productivity, with the ability to work in a 24-hour mode, with reliability, strength, resistance to shocks and other impacts.

Industrial thermal direct and thermal transfer label printers

There are two types of specialized industrial grade label printers : thermal direct and thermal transfer label printing .

• Thermal direct industrial label printers produce an image similar to the printing device of a fiscal machine, where the label printer head acts by thermal heating on the heat-sensitive paper of the label.
• Thermal transfer industrial label printers print by transferring dye from the ribbon in the printer onto the label using a hot thermal head.

The image obtained with a thermal transfer label printer is more durable, less affected by the environment (sun, high temperatures, etc.) than the image made with a thermal direct label printer .

Printing labels with an industrial label printer is more cost-effective than with a regular desktop printer.

• First, all industrial label printers are adapted for printing barcodes , that is, they have built-in mechanisms for creating barcodes.
• Second, with them you can use labels on a roll of the size you need.
• Third, many of the industrial label printers offered by Alpha Partner have many additional functions , which will allow you to use the same label printer in different conditions.
