What types of printing media does the TTO carbon strip support?

TTO (Thermal Transfer Overprint) carbon belts support many types of printing media, which are widely used in a variety of industries and fields. The following are the main print media types supported by TTO carbon belts:

Plastic film

PET (Polyester film) : PET is a common plastic film with good physical properties and chemical stability, suitable for printing tasks that require high durability and chemical resistance.

PVC (polyvinyl chloride film) : PVC film is also one of the commonly used printing media for TTO carbon belt, which is widely used in packaging, labeling and other fields.

PP (Polypropylene film) : PP film has excellent water, oil and chemical resistance, suitable for printing needs in a variety of environments.

PE (polyethylene film) : PE film is light, soft and has a certain toughness, suitable for occasions where soft printing media is required.

paper

Kraft paper, non-coated paper, semi-glazed paper, coated paper, etc. : These paper types are also suitable for printing TTO carbon tape because of their different surface characteristics and uses. For example, kraft paper is often used in the field of packaging, while coated paper is often used in print production because of its good printing effect.

Other synthetic materials

Synthetic paper: such as some special purpose synthetic paper, with a similar appearance and feel to paper, but with higher durability and water resistance.

Aluminum foil (AL) : When aluminum foil is used as a printing medium, special TTO carbon belts are required to achieve good printing results.

Characteristics and selection

In the selection of TTO carbon belt, in addition to considering the type of printing medium, it is also necessary to pay attention to the performance characteristics of the carbon belt, such as adhesion, clarity, printing speed, wear resistance and adaptability. For example, for printing tasks that require a high degree of durability and scratch resistance, resin-based carbon strips with excellent scratch resistance and solubility resistance can be selected. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the selected carbon strip can adapt to the specific printing environment and media conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and the surface characteristics of the media.

In summary, TTO carbon tape supports a variety of types of printing media, including plastic film (such as PET, PVC, PP, PE, etc.), paper (such as kraft paper, uncoated paper, semi-glazed paper, coated paper, etc.) and other synthetic materials (such as synthetic paper, aluminum foil, etc.). In the selection, should be based on the specific printing needs and media conditions for comprehensive consideration.
