The Thermocode Series 2 intermittent range of on-line thermal transfer printers encompasses six models offering print areas from 53 x 53 mm up to 107 x 160 mm.

An individual Thermocode can be operated locally via its control module (see more details below) directly from a PC using the design software supplied with every unit, or up to 99 printers can be networked together and controlled from a central work station.

Many of our competitors place emphasis on their print speed capabilities (mm/second); however, in reality, it is the total cycle time that is the true test of a printer’s ability to achieve high production rates and maintain print quality. This is particularly true when printing batch and expiration codes, dates, prices, and bar codes.

In fact, recent trials at major pharmaceutical and food packaging companies have proved that the Open Date Thermocode 2 achieves the highest output speeds with minimal cycle times. The clear advantage of printing at lower speeds is superb print quality and extended printhead life with limited mechanical wear.

The Thermocode Series 2 Model 53E provides a unique solution to virtually all online thermal printing applications.

• Compatible with most reel fed packaging and labeling machines.
• 12 dots per mm (300 dpi) resolution.
• Self-leveling printhead.
• On board diagnostics with large capacity 1.5 mb internal memory and full networking capabilities.
