Identification Systems Product Selection Label Selection Use our flowchart to find the right label or identification material. Select the object to be identified (flat or curved surface) and its surface quality (smooth or rough). Depending on what you require from our identification systems, you will be guided through the flowchart to the end. Please note that we have highlighted the respective printer technology (thermal transfer, matrix or laser printer, etc.) in colour. When selecting the material, the general rule is that a higher quality material can of course be used for lower requirements...

Identification Systems Technical Information Bonding properties of labels The great variety 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 cable markers with protective laminate Cable markers 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,...

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...
