ttPRINT - THERMAL TRANSFER OVERPRINT
The ttPRINT is a freely programmable printing system that can be integrated with all kinds of packaging machinery, horizontal or vertical bagging systems, form-fill-seal machines and labelling systems for coding on all types of webs, labels and packaging materials. The system operates on the thermal transfer method, producing an excellent print image with very fine edge definition, which is immediately dry and abrasion proof. Data, barcodes or graphics are directly applied to all kinds of flexible packaging material in a high resolution of 300 dpi.
The ttPRINT runs at speeds up to 800 mm/sec. and depending on the variation of the print head of 53, 107 or 128 mm, images with a size of 128 x 3000 mm can be printed. Hence, even very large motifs are no problem. There is a considerable reduction of ribbon consumption -- up to 80% in relation to the print image. The ttPRINT operates both, continuous and intermittend due to the cassette system, ribbon change is accomplished within seconds. Data input is accomplished directly at the control unit via a PC or touch panel. The KBA-Metronic design program ttGRAPHICS allows not only for generating dates, barcodes and graphics, but also for data input from an external database. Data transfer is accomplished via parallel, serial, USB or Ethernet interface onto the integrated Memory of 16 MB or the expandable 128, 256, 512 or 1024 MB Compact Flash.
