A groundbreaking innovation in thermal imaging has arrived: Taktik Thermprint Advantage Ultra-Fast, the first in a new line of top-coated thermal self-adhesive roll label materials. Designed for barcoded price-weigh and box-end labeling across a diverse range of machines, this advanced medium offers unparalleled performance.
The specialized top coating provides exceptional protection for the thermal coating, enabling the creation of crisp barcodes and deep black text with significantly less heat. This reduction in heat translates directly to extended print head life without compromising print quality. Thermprint Advantage Ultra-Fast boasts an exceptionally rapid thermal response, making it ideally suited for the latest high-speed thermal printers. Moreover, its compatibility extends to older thermal machines, where it can prolong print head viability by allowing for reduced heat settings. Printing speeds of up to 12 inches (300mm) per second are easily achievable.
An additional key benefit of Thermprint Ultra-Fast is its ability to overcome the challenges posed by printing inks and glossy varnishes in supermarket price-weigh applications. Existing products often require high print head energy to produce clear thermal images through these coatings, leading to premature print head failure and costly replacements (up to £1000 per head, depending on the machine). Thermprint labels activate at lower energy levels, effectively negating the insulating effect of inks and varnishes.
