Durable Labels for Critical Product Identification

Durable Rating Labels for High Quality Product Identification

Printing labels with specific product rating information is essential for all manufacturers of electronic equipment to allow the end-user, installer, service engineer or on-going support team to correctly identify the exact product and version.

For certain industries this information is critical, providing the user with regulatory information allowing the equipment to be safely used within hazardous working environments or for aviation, aerospace or defence applications where defined standards limit the use of normal consumer electronics.

Variable key Information will vary, not only for each product variation, but also to cover a host of unique variable data such as serial numbers, date codes, software/firmware revisions, voltages, current ratings, and various legislation requirements for any given industry. This may appear as text, graphics (i.e. CE or UKCA logo) or as a barcode, such as a QR code with link to installation, download or set-up instructions.

Producing and keeping track of labels with unique identifiers, such as the IP addresses, the username and password of the equipment may require multiple labels of different sizes to be placed on different parts of the product and packaging – all at different times. For this solution a single multi-part label set offers a simple way to produce your labels on demand and the label set simply continues through production as another component of the build, each label can be removed from the liner and applied at the correct stage. This ensures each part of the finished product has the same variable information for traceability.

Link Hamson offer a range of thermal transfer printers to suit all budgets, label design/printing software from BarTender and a comprehensive range of stock labels or custom sizes/materials to provide your own in-house labelling solution. Alternatively if you prefer, or if you are just starting a new design we can offer you a pre-printed label service to provide batches of labels for each production build.
