Thermo transfer printers - value for money

High resolution thermo transfer printers, 300 dpi, with product speeds of up to 36m/min for continuous applications and up to 800 prints/min for intermittent applications.

Except for desk top printers a total of 11 models are available for different print areas, application requirements and print speeds. A variety of thermo transfer ribbons for a large variety of surfaces are available. Freely programmable, data input supported by label creating software Codesoft and also escape sequences or windows driver. All known barcodes available, also self generating like EAN, Datamatrix, Code 39.

Technical details

sturdy and robust finishing in eloxated aluminium and stainless steel
manual controller for programming standard or optional touch screen
print areas 107 x 160mm intermittent or 107 x 250mm continuous
print speeds up to 800 prints/min for 2-line print
all movements controlled by stepper motors - no compressed air required
automatically levelling printhead - no mechanical adjustments required
many frame sytems for labelling and packaging machines already realized, integration in carton printing machines possible
maximum operational security by patented print head mechanics

Why should it be a thermocode?

self levelling print head with double spring suspension
print head angle adjustable. This provides a better print quality and a lower energy consumption while printing resulting in a longer life span of the print head.
print head warranty 1 year or 50km, whatever comes first.
print head adjusts itself automatically to the level of the substrate to be printed - no adjustment of the mounting frame required any more
print head approaches the substrate in a curve thus preserving the print head
printer can be turned by 90° without that the mounting frame has to be adjusted.
all movements are controlled by stepper motors (print head vertically and horizontally, ribbon feed)
all stepper motors can be programmed according to application requirements
no compressed air required, only a 240 Volt connection
maximum pressure on product = 25KN (=abt. 2,45 bar)
control unit only with I/O connectors, control unit can be integrated in the control box
4MB printer memory, no memory card required
free programmable eprom for printer firmware - therefore easy upgrading of the firmware possible ( i.e. downloading firmware from the internet and then transferring it to the printer)
customized firmware upgrades possible in a short time
ports RS232, RS485, USB, and Ethernet through a converter box. IP address (for Ethernet) in the converter box and not in the printer, or Ethernet card
Codesoft 6 premier supplied as standard
own programming of the Codesoft driver
additional programming of the printer by escape sequences, windows driver or nicelabel possible
SAP/ERP connections possible
all windows fonts can be stored as standard fonts in the printer memory and thus be used as variable data.
special adaptation of fonts to the application possible ( i.e. camera readability)
all movements controlled by photocells (no micro switches!!)
small manual programming unit (standard) with edit function, fault diagnosis, and error handling, choice of several languages, and format memory without pc-/network connection
connector cable control unit to printer up to 5m
a variety of available models depending on print size or application
