Identification Systems Technical Information Bonding properties of labels The great variety of places where adhesive labels can be used require a broad range of different materials and adhesives. The information given below will explain all the important aspects of this adhesion. To enable you to make the right choice for your particular application quickly and efficiently, we have set out the most important selection criteria diagrammatically in our flowchart. Initial and final bonding In principle there are two different bonding conditions for labels: The initial bonding which occurs immediately...

Identification Systems Technical Information Effect of surface energy on bonding properties The surface energy (also known as surface tension) is an important factor in the selection of the right adhesive. Because of their chemical formulation, all surfaces have their own polarity and surface tension. The cause of surface tensions is the tendency of liquids to reduce their surface as far as possible, thus to form drops. When a surface which is to be marked (substrate) is wetted with an adhesive, in addition to the adhesive formulation and the surface quality (material, roughness, dampness etc.)...

Identification Systems Technical Information Instructions for using labels with protective laminate Labels with protective laminate (also known as cable laminators) have a white or coloured label field which can be written on either manually using a marker pen (see RiteOn and HELASIGN) or using a matrix, laser or thermal transfer printer (see Helatag). Depending on the design for the respective type of printing, the title block has a special surface finish to achieve the optimum print anchorage to the label substrate. This results in long-lasting, clear, sharp writing with text, graphics or barcode....

Identification Systems Technical Information Interesting facts about thermal transfer films (colour ribbons) The thermal transfer ribbon is perhaps the most important consumable that is used in this printing system - using the right ribbon for a particular application is extremely important. Not every transfer ribbon is equally suited to any purpose. Depending on the printing requirements (e.g. smudge or scratchproof) to be met, what type of labels will be used, an appropriate thermal transfer ribbon must be used. Another important consideration for the thermal transfer ribbon is the electrostatic...

Identification Systems Technical Information Data Reader Application/ Database Radio frequency identification, for short RFID, simply means the identification by radio waves. The data transfer is affected by means of electromagnetic waves. This technology allows a contactless storing and reading of data and makes a communication between devices possible. There are several methods of identification, but the most common is to store a serial number that identifies a person or object, and perhaps other information, on a microchip that is attached to an antenna (the chip and the antenna together are called...
