Tyco Electronics' Identification business unit has launched its first own branded range of computer-based thermal transfer printers for high performance industrial cable identification and labelling.
Tyco Electronics' Identification business unit has launched its first own branded range of computer-based thermal transfer printers for high performance industrial cable identification and labelling applications.
As a world leader in industrial identification systems, Tyco Electronics has introduced this new range of printers to deliver superior mark permanence and optimum manufacturing efficiency for its extensive range of identification products.
Together with the correct choice of base materials and ribbons these printers will cover all identification requirements, whether for standard label applications or the most demanding military and industrial environments.
Three series of models make up the new printer range.
Most offer a choice of 200 or 300dot/in print resolution and are compatible with Tyco Electronics' proprietary computer software that enables identification instructions to be downloaded from design databases and drive single or multiple printers.
The T200 Series is a family of compact and portable budget printers, available with an optional cutter, and ideal for low volume users.
These lightweight, take anywhere models are particularly suitable for the smaller commercial/industrial sector and will apply high print quality identification data onto a selection of appropriate label and cable identification products.
The robust T300 Series printers offer a cost effective solution for high volume, high complexity users and have a dual 32 processor to give greater efficiency in database handling.
The T300S models are designed for use with Tyco Electronics' labelling product range.
They can print up to eight inches per second and optional cutters or rewind units will provide the most appropriate handling characteristics.
T312M model has been specially developed to accept multi-products including labels and the full range of cable identification products - including heat-shrinkable sleeves.
These are true workhorse printers, which can be operated with Tyco Electronics' ribbons to meet the defined print quality and permanence specifications required in demanding industrial applications.
For users with ultra-high-volume requirements and extended duty cycles, the top of the range T400 Series delivers the fastest output and rugged durability.
Capable of printing 12in/s, these models also have the high efficiency dual 32bit processor, and additionally have a quick calibrate feature and wider (140mm) printhead.
