This is what our customers have to say
We have been using the Allen hot stamper in our bakery since 2001 and it has never malfunctioned.
Recently, it had to be repaired and I got a rental unit within a day.
I loved the prompt help!

Frequently asked questions about Allen S-Compact
Still have questions? You can find more detailed information here.
You need a system to label your products where the print content changes rarely, e.g., once a day. This system should be easy to use, work reliably and should be cheap.
The hot foil coding technology is ideal if your application runs in a cyclical manner and the system prints on a foil, a label or a similar flat product.
Our hot foil coding systems work with type holders on which the text or graphic to be printed is set using types or graphics are set using clichés or engravings.
This type holder is heated in the printing system and pressed against the surface to be printed by a pneumatic cylinder for printing. Pressure and heat transfer the colour to the product from the colour foil located between the type holder and the product.
In order to integrate an Allen S-Compact printing system in your application, you need a holder with a counter-printing plate in addition to the hot foil coding printing system itself. A 230V and a pneumatic connection are required to operate the printer.
For the desired imprint you need type holders and types for text or numbers, or clichés with the required graphics.
For printing you need colour foils, which we offer in different colours and widths to match your print.
There are several ways to do this with Diagraph.
