Thermal transfer printing

smart-LABEL High Temperature | © RATHGEBER GmbH & Co. KG

Technology

Thermal transfer printing is a form of digital printing. In the printer, in a similar manner to heat embossing printing, the ink is heated on an ink ribbon and transferred to the printing substrate. Unlike heat embossing printing, however, no printing plate with fixed motif is used. Instead, small heat cells in the printer are controlled on an individual basis. This means that different information can be custom-printed on each printing pass. 

The benefits for you
