There are gaps between domestic mixed base carbon belt and imported products in many aspects. The following is a detailed analysis of these gaps:
1. Raw materials and manufacturing process
Raw materials: Imported mixed base carbon strips often use higher quality raw materials, such as imported coated large rolls, etc., which are more superior in performance, such as better wear resistance, heat resistance and chemical corrosion resistance. However, the domestic mixed base carbon strip may be limited by cost in the selection of raw materials, resulting in a slight deficiency in some properties.
Manufacturing process: Imported products are more refined in the manufacturing process, and the use of advanced production equipment and technology can ensure the consistency and stability of the carbon belt. However, there may be some fluctuation in the manufacturing process of domestic products, which leads to the unstable performance of carbon belt.
2. Performance and quality
Printing effect: Imported mixed base carbon strips usually have higher print clarity and density, which can meet more demanding printing tasks. There may be some differences in the printing effect of domestic products, which need to be evaluated according to the specific model and quality.
Durability: Imported mixed base carbon strips perform better in terms of durability and can resist harsh environments such as high temperature, humidity and chemical corrosion. Domestic products may have certain limitations in durability, and need to be selected according to the environment and conditions of use.
3. Brand and certification
Brand awareness: Imported mixed base carbon belt brands have high visibility and reputation in the international market, such as RICOH, Almo (ARMOR) and so on. These brands typically have a richer product line and broader market coverage. However, there may be a certain gap in the popularity of domestic hybrid carbon belt brands, and it is necessary to continuously improve the brand image and market recognition.
Certification and standards: Imported mixed base carbon strips usually comply with more stringent international standards and certification requirements, such as the European standard EN 71. These certifications and standards ensure the quality and safety of the carbon belt. However, domestic products may have certain deficiencies in certification and standards, and it is necessary to strengthen the construction of international standards and standardization.
4. Price and cost performance
Price: Due to differences in raw materials, manufacturing processes, brand awareness and other factors, the price of imported mixed base carbon strips is usually higher than that of domestic products. However, this does not mean that domestic products are necessarily lower than imported products in terms of cost performance. In some cases, domestic blended base carbon strips may provide comparable performance and quality at a lower price.
Cost performance: Cost performance is one of the important factors that consumers need to consider when choosing products. When evaluating the cost performance of domestic mixed base carbon belt and imported products, it is necessary to consider the price, performance, quality, service life and other aspects. In some cases, domestic blended base carbon strips may provide better value for money at a lower price.
5. Market and Application
Market distribution: At present, the domestic carbon strip market distribution is roughly domestic wax base and mixed carbon strip because of the high cost ratio of the market proportion is higher, and high-end resin carbon strip and mixed carbon strip have higher process technology requirements, so the import proportion will be relatively large.
Application field: Imported mixed base carbon strips are usually used in areas with high printing quality and durability requirements, such as the automotive industry, medical equipment, high-end retail, etc. The domestic mixed base carbon belt is more widely used in general business, logistics, warehousing and other fields.
In summary, there are gaps between domestic mixed base carbon belts and imported products in raw materials and manufacturing processes, performance and quality, brand and certification, price and cost performance, as well as market and application. However, with the continuous development and progress of domestic carbon belt technology, the gap between domestic mixed base carbon belt and imported products is gradually narrowing. When consumers choose products, they should make comprehensive considerations according to their specific needs and budgets.
