In addition to the printing system, you always need a suitable holder with counterpressure plate or counterpressure roller for integrating the printhead. Your material to be printed must be guided over this counterpressure. We offer different solutions for integration into your plant depending on the application.
To operate the printing system, you need a suitable thermal transfer ribbon, which must be selected to match your product. For this purpose, we offer you the possibility to select a suitable foil by sampling.
