Introduction to popular science about heat transfer printer

Industrial marking equipment that uses heat transfer printer heads to heat transfer printer ribbons to achieve high-speed printing. The English name is heat transfer printer overprinter abbreviated as TTO, and the Chinese is called heat transfer printer. The scope of application of the heat transfer printer: it can be printed on the packaging label of soft and thin material or on the smooth surface of the card; it can be accurate to the production time when it needs to print bar codes; it can be accurate to the production time when it needs to print real-time information.

Main industries: fast food, candy, bread, cold food, frozen food, fresh vegetables, wet tissues, solid powder and any other flexible packaging industries. heat transfer printer are divided into two types: continuous type and intermittent type. The continuous type requires a synchronizer, while the intermittent type requires a silicone pad. The consumable of the heat transfer printer is thermal transfer ribbon. Ribbons are divided into three types, Wax, Resin, Wax/Resin Blend.

Each print head has a row of heating elements; these elements use glaze as a protective layer, and are driven and heated at an appropriate time; the heat generated by these elements melts the ink on the ribbon, and at the same time, the ink on the ribbon is melted due to the pressure of air pressure. The ink is transferred to the substrate. Only the characters of theheat transfer printer are not independently typed and can be printed.
