MARKERS FOR CASES AND LABELS: everything you need to know

Markers for cases and labels are useful when you want to sell or trade a certain product. Especially when it comes to food and cosmetics, you need to make sure that it is traceable at any time. For this reason, it is necessary to mark it with the production lot and expiry date. In this way, in case of problems of a given production lot, it will be possible to withdraw the entire batch from the market and protect both the producer and the consumer.

Thanks to today’s technology it is possible to mark the data on tags and cases through specific markers that are easy to use.

These are divided into two macro categories:

Thermal transfer and solid ink markers.

The first work with a ribbon covered with ink “foil”, which passes under the heated printing head on which the characters are inserted, and it’s transferred thermally onto pouches, cardboard, trays etc. (Model FP HP 280.)

The latter, on the other hand, also work with heat transfer, but unlike the previous ones, instead of the polyester tape, the characters are inked using a solid ink roller. In this type of printing solid ink is activated by heating and allows immediate drying and an indelible printing on each support. (FPMY series markers)

MARKERS TYPOLOGIES AND MAIN USES:

Semi-automatic model suitable for medium productions, it allows to print from 20 to 50 pieces per minute. However, being a semiautomatic model requires the constant presence of an operator for the operation.

The operation is very simple, just enter the characters in the character-holder and turn on the marker setting the temperature suitable for marking, this varies depending on the thickness and type of product to be marked. Once the marker has reached the temperature, it is possible to proceed with the marking.

OPERATION:
Place then the product under the character holder. By pressing the electric pedal, the marker quickly makes the marking (in about 2 seconds). The head with the characters transfers the ink from the inked ribbon to the product creating an indelible and slightly incised marking.
