About Thermal Transfer Overprinting Coder
LMI Offers Thermal Transfer Overprinting machine for continuous and intermittent printing as well as off-line printing. The intermittent machines are suitable where the web material or item to be printed stops once per machine cycle and continuous printers are for use where the substrate material or object to be printed is fed continuously when the parent machine is operating.
Versatile Thermal Transfer Printer, capable of printing quality images, including texts, Graphics, Dates, Bar codes and 2D codes on to flexible packaging material, including labels, films , foils, cartons and cards. They are available in two print widths,53 mm and 107mm and can print images up to 500mm long.

FAQs of Thermal Transfer Overprinting Coder:
Q: How does the Thermal Transfer Overprinting Coder ensure high-resolution and clear prints on packaging?
A: The coder operates at a 300 dpi print resolution, ensuring sharp text, graphics, and barcodes. Its adjustable print area and ribbon width allow precise marking on diverse flexible packaging materials, resulting in consistently clear prints.
Q: What ribbon types are compatible with this coder, and how do I select the right one for my application?
A: This coder supports wax, wax-resin, and resin ribbons, each suited for different substrate materials and durability requirements. For general batch coding, wax is ideal; wax-resin offers better abrasion resistance, while resin provides maximum durability for harsh environments.
Q: When should I adjust the temperature settings on the coder, and what is the maximum temperature?
A: The temperature can be adjusted up to 200C to optimize print quality based on ribbon and substrate type. Adjustments are typically made when switching packaging materials or ribbon types to ensure optimal transfer and adhesion.
Q: Where can the Thermal Transfer Overprinting Coder be installed within my facility?
A: The coder is designed for flexible installation options, including tabletop mounting for standalone use or in-line mounting as part of automated production lines. Its compact size and in-line compatibility make it suitable for various industrial setups.
Q: What is the process for storing and managing print files on this coder?
A: With a memory capacity for up to 1,000 print files, users can store multiple templates encompassing text, graphics, barcodes, and QR codes. Files are managed via a touch panel or PC software, allowing quick selection and modification as needed.
Q: How does the coder benefit my packaging operation in terms of productivity and maintenance?
A: It supports speeds up to 60 prints per minute and offers maintenance-free operation thanks to its stepper motor drive, efficient ribbon consumption, and robust cooling system. These features minimize downtime and operational costs while boosting throughput.
Q: What connectivity options are provided for integrating the coder into my existing workflow?
A: The coder is equipped with USB and RS232 interfaces, facilitating easy integration with computers and production equipment. Digital control and high-speed embedded processor ensure responsive, reliable data transfer and operation.
