At present, the barcode scanners on the market can be mainly divided into handheld barcode readers, fixed barcode scanners, and embedded barcode scanners.
The printer industry is a market with a scale of hundreds of billions. In the era of traditional hardware computers, the printer industry is often monopolized by several overseas giants.
Data from Tmall platform shows the sales performance of HPRT home printers has been eye-catching since 2022, the average monthly sales of the FT800 series alone have reached nearly 10,000 units, with month-over-month growth of around 60%.
The industrial barcode printer refers to a type of barcode printers used in industrial scenarios, which is large in size. It usually adopts a metal body, so it is sturdy and durable with strong temperature and humidity resistance. Therefore, it can even be used in the working environment with relatively poor conditions, such as in factories and warehouses.
HPRT industrial TTO printer FC53/32 is suitable for food, medicine, daily chemical, household paper and other types of flexible packaging variable code (including traceability code, barcode) printing.
Some important aspects need to consindered when choosing the ribbons for TTO printers: printing width, the smoothness of the printed surface, and the durability of the printing content.
The thermal transfer overprinting ribbon is a layer of PET film coated with fusible ink on one side and a protective layer called a back coating on the other side.
Ribbon is a very important material in thermal transfer printing. A good ribbon can protect the print head and improve the printing effect. Thermal transfer ribbons can be mainly classified into wax ribbon, resin ribbon, and mixed ribbon according to the material.
TTO is short for thermal transfer overprinter. Adopting thermal transfer overprinting technology, it’s a type of printing machine for flexible or soft packaging code printing. Compared with an ordinary solid ink coding machine, it is more intelligent.
At present, the barcode scanning technology of the scanner device is mainly separated into two types: the laser method and the image method. The image method can be further divided into CCD (Charge Coupled Device) and CMOS.
