(Summary description)Many times, people often ask about a device called heat transfer labeling machine, which is actually what we often call a printing labeling machine, because the main printing structure of the heat transfer labeling machine is a bar code printer. When we do real-time printing and labeling, we add mechanical labeling arms, electrical equipment, computer control equipment, racks, etc. On this basis, some standard printing and labeling machines have been formed, which can be used by some companies that do automatic packaging. Let's learn about transfer printing and thermal printing. Heat transfer printing and heat transfer printing are two methods of labeling machine printing. Each method uses a thermal print head to heat the print surface. Heat transfer printing is to print durable patterns on various materials by heating ribbons. The labeling machine does not use color bands for printing, but directly prints patterns on label materials. Labeling machine printing and heat transfer printing are good barcode printing technologies, because they can be easily applied to various sticky label materials, and can print accurate and high-quality patterns with excellent edge clarity. Each technology can produce one-dimensional and two-dimensional bar code symbols with the same printing clarity and speed of patterns and text fonts. The following sections will help you understand the differences between various technologies and how to choose the appropriate printing method in your application. Printing principle of labeling machine The labeling machine uses chemically treated thermal media for printing, which will turn black when passing under the thermal print head. Thermal printers do not use ink, toner, or ribbons. The simple design makes the thermal printer durable and easy to use. Because there is no ribbon, the operation cost of the labeling machine is lower than that of the heat transfer printer. The pattern on the labeling machine media will fade over time. If the label is excessively exposed to heat, light or other catalysts, the material will darken, making the barcode unreadable. The readability of Thermal Labels varies greatly depending on the conditions of use, but this technology provides sufficient service life for rated labels and many other common barcode printing applications.
