Thermal Transfer Ribbon

resistNE N 544 Sw

Resin
NE & FH

Is the solution when the resistance of wax/resin qualities in the near-edge area is no longer sufficient. It can be used on all label printers and direct print systems up to a maximum print speed of 200 mm/s, depending on the print image also up to 300 mm/s. It is very sensitive and can be used with low energy settings on all materials, from vellum and cardboard for tags, to polyester and packaging films. It is flexible with different settings and can also be used on flat-head printers.

This quality prints very black with the highest resolution fine lines, small type, barcodes and graphics. The print has good mechanical resistance and basic resistance to mild chemicals. When subjected to mechanical stress, it can withstand temperatures up to approx. 110°C. resistNE / N 544 Sw is resistant to water and water vapour and is used for printing packaging that is cooked with contents. It is approved for use in the food sector. Other applications are hang tags in the textile sector that easily survive a steam ironing process without discolouration. A large area of application is direct printing on packaging films (TTO) mon lot numbers and best before dates.
