Logistics transportation has a significant impact on the quality of TTO high-speed coding carbon tape (Thermal Transfer Overprint). The following is a detailed analysis of this impact:
1、 Physical damage
During logistics transportation, TTO high-speed coding carbon tape may suffer physical damage such as compression and impact. These damages may cause the ink layer on the surface of the carbon ribbon to peel off, the base tape to deform or break, thereby affecting its printing effect and durability. Therefore, appropriate packaging and protection measures need to be taken during transportation, such as using bubble film, foam plastic and other buffer materials to wrap to ensure that the carbon belt is not damaged.
2、 Temperature variation
TTO high-speed coding carbon tape has certain temperature requirements. During transportation, if the temperature is too high, it may cause the ink on the carbon ribbon to melt or deteriorate, thereby affecting its printing quality; If the temperature is too low, it may make the carbon ribbon brittle and prone to fracture. Therefore, during transportation, it is necessary to choose appropriate transportation tools and time to avoid exposing the carbon ribbon to extreme temperature environments. For special carbon ribbons that require refrigeration or insulation transportation, it is also necessary to ensure that the refrigeration or insulation function of the transportation equipment is functioning properly.
3、 Humidity impact
Humidity is also an important factor affecting the quality of TTO high-speed coding ribbon. High humidity environments may cause carbon ribbon to become damp, leading to ink smudging, weak label adhesion, and other issues; Low humidity environments may generate static electricity, attract dust, and thus affect the performance of carbon ribbons. Therefore, during transportation, it is necessary to maintain a suitable humidity environment to avoid the carbon ribbon from getting damp or generating static electricity. Excess moisture can be absorbed by placing desiccants inside the packaging, while avoiding contact between the carbon ribbon and water sources.
4、 Static electricity problem
During transportation, if the carbon ribbon rubs against packaging materials or other items, static electricity may be generated. Static electricity may not only attract dust and affect the cleanliness of the carbon ribbon, but also cause malfunctions during the printing process. Therefore, anti-static measures need to be taken during packaging and transportation, such as using anti-static packaging materials and maintaining packaging sealing.
5、 Long term exposure
Long term transportation and exposure may cause the TTO high-speed coding carbon tape to be affected by environmental factors such as light exposure and oxidation, thereby accelerating its aging process. Aging carbon tape may result in poor printing performance, weakened adhesion, and other issues. Therefore, during transportation, the exposure time of the carbon ribbon should be minimized as much as possible, and it should be stored in a suitable environment as soon as possible.
In summary, in order to ensure that the quality of TTO high-speed coding carbon tape is not affected during logistics transportation, a series of protective measures need to be taken. These measures include appropriate packaging and protection, selecting suitable transportation vehicles and times, maintaining suitable humidity and temperature environments, taking anti-static measures, and minimizing the exposure time of carbon ribbons. By implementing these measures, the quality and performance of TTO high-speed coding carbon tape during transportation can be maximally guaranteed.
