Thermal transfer printing - best quality
Allen NGT series "Made in Germany"
The NGT printing system is developed and produced in Germany.
It is designed for high cycling rates, series production and the best print quality.
For the labeling of packaging foil and product labels, the scope of application ranges from applying the expiration date to the complete labeling of the packaging in case of changing dates or languages.
The data can be loaded via various interfaces.
Applications including series production using individual data for each print run are possible with the highest cycling speed.
With the largest range of printhead sizes from 2" to 8" (55 mm to 213 mm), the applications are endless.
One control unit - many possibilities
Operate your printing system with the TouchPro control. We have a solution for any application, whether with our standard operating software or a user interface adapted to your needs. This allows connecting different printing systems and enabling different functions. The connection of a database or various interfaces can also be implemented.

Possible applications from practice
Find yourself labeling with thermal transfer printers.
Printing labels in the pharmaceutical industry
The smallest labels in the pharmaceutical industry have to be printed with a great deal of information. This includes texts and variable data as well as QR codes.
The NGT series printers are designed for the best print results and razor-sharp print images, performing reliably in the long-term.
Allen NGT8e - largest printing area, razor sharp
Sometimes a lot of information has to be printed on a label, e.g. ingredients and hazard warnings in several languages.
No problem with the Allen NGT thermal transfer printers. They have the largest print image of all thermal transfer printers in the market with an area of up to 213 x 1000 mm.
Thermal transfer print on tubular bag
Thermal transfer printers are often used in the labeling of plastic films for tubular bag packaging. They achieve large and high-resolution print images, so that a host of information can be applied in optimum quality.
Our Allen NGT thermal transfer printers are ideally suited for this task.
Frequently asked questions regarding the Allen NGT
Do you have further questions? Find more information here.
If you want to print on smooth material such as a packaging foil, product labels or paper, then a thermal transfer printer is the right choice for you.
The NGT is suitable for printing fixed data such as logos, text and barcodes, but also for changing data such as expiration dates, batch numbers, barcodes or texts. Changing data can also include customized printing of individual products with serialized data.
Examples of this are prints on packaging foil or labels.
The NGT printing system supports both cycled and continuous printing. Which mode is right for you depends on your application.
If your machine stops for a short time after each product, you can print in intermittent mode.
If the material to be printed is always moving after the system is started, continuous printing is necessary.
The NGT printing system supports both printing methods that can be selected via the operating software.
We provide Windows-based operating software for the printing systems free of charge. The software can be used to control the printing system via a PC.
If operation on the line is required, we can offer you the TouchPro control panel. It enables controlling one or more printing systems.
We offer you software for creating print images for our NGT printing systems free of charge. With this you can create, manage and send your print images to your printing systems.
Additionally, we provide drivers for all common print image design software.
As an alternative, we also offer a Windows driver for our NGT printing system.
In addition to the printing system, you require a suitable support with counter-printing plate to integrate the printhead. The material to be printed is guided along this plate. We offer different solutions for integration into your system depending on the application.
To operate the printing system, you need a thermal transfer ribbon, which must be selected to fit your product. For this purpose, we offer you the possibility to select the suitable ribbon for your application by means of sampling.
