Thermal Transfer Ribbon

N 416 Go

Wax/resin
Near-Edge

is a glossy metallic gold wax/resin grade for near-edge label printers and direct print systems. It is very flexible on a wide range of materials, from vellum papers to packaging films. It is very sensitive and can be used over a wide temperature range, with print speeds up to 200 mm/s. On smooth materials it delivers excellent resolution of even the smallest fonts and fine lines.

Printing with N 416 Go is smudge-proof and has limited resistance to erasing. Resistance to peeling with chemicals is rather low. The print withstands temperatures up to 90°C with simultaneous wiping.

The classic areas of application for this vacuum-metallised quality are high-quality labels in the food industry, especially for wine and spirits, perfume, cosmetics, jewellery. Furthermore, smooth and coated textile materials (gift ribbons, mourning bows, etc.) can be printed in a shiny gold tone.
