The wear resistance of the Thermal Transfer Overprint (TTO) high-speed coded carbon strip is one of the important indexes to evaluate its quality, which is directly related to the service life of the carbon strip and the stability of the printing effect. The following are the main aspects of how to evaluate the wear resistance of TTO high-speed coding carbon tape:
First, Laboratory test methods
1.Wear resistance test method: the carbon belt is installed in a specific device, the device is started for continuous printing, and the number of printed pages before the carbon belt breaks is recorded, so as to evaluate the durability of the carbon belt. This method can directly reflect the wear resistance of the carbon strip under continuous working conditions.
2.Scratch test: Use an friction tester or scratch tester to simulate the scratching environment of various sharp hard objects that the post-print label may experience. By evaluating the adhesion and wear resistance of the printing ink on different substrates, the wear resistance of the carbon strip can be judged. This approach is more focused on assessing the durability of the carbon strip printing effect.
Second, Practical application performance
1.Printing effect durability: In the actual use process, observe whether the information printed by the carbon belt is still clear and readable after multiple frictions and collisions. High-quality TTO high-speed coding carbon tape should be able to maintain the integrity and clarity of printed information for a long time.
2.Equipment maintenance costs: The carbon belt with good wear resistance can reduce the frequency of replacement, thereby reducing equipment maintenance costs. Therefore, the wear resistance of the carbon belt can be evaluated indirectly through the statistics of its replacement cycle and equipment maintenance costs.
Third, user feedback and authentication
1.User reviews: Refer to reviews and feedback from other users, especially those who have already used this model carbon strip in similar environments. Their practical experience can provide a valuable reference for evaluating the wear resistance of carbon strip.
2.Product certification: Some well-known brand products may pass the quality certification of the authority, which usually includes the testing of the product's wear resistance. The choice of certified products can increase the confidence and security of purchase.
Fourth, Analysis of specific examples
In the case of some specific brands of TTO high-speed coding carbon strips, they may be specifically designed to achieve strong scratch resistance, stain resistance, and resistance to most mild chemicals. These characteristics can significantly improve the wear resistance of carbon belts in practical applications, and meet the strict requirements of packaging labels in food, medicine, cosmetics and other industries.
To sum up, the evaluation of the wear resistance of TTO high-speed coding carbon tape needs to be considered in combination with laboratory test methods, practical application performance, user feedback and certification. When purchasing, it is recommended to choose products with well-known brands, authoritative certifications and excellent performance in practical applications.
