A thermal transfer printer for printing on textile tape is necessary for obtaining labels, sewn-in components for products light industry. Every type of clothing, from baby bonnets to outerwear, comes with tags and custom labels.

Label types

  1. Compilers. Made in corporate identity or with a simple description of the composition of the fabric and how to care for the product. Smooth nylon labels are the cheapest. They are sewn into T-shirts, shirts, sportswear. Satin counterparts have a cotton base. They are considered softer and more beautiful, they are used for underwear, pajamas and other items of the children's assortment.
  2. Dimensionals - another printer label made by thermal transfer printing. It gives information about the linear, volumetric parameters of a thing in the domestic and European format. A nylon "flag" is placed in that part of the product where it does not come into contact with the body. Satin "loop" means bending the mark, the edges of which are sewn into the seam.

The production of labels is carried out on our own equipment or an order is made for production in another place.

Differences in textile label printing

The thermal transfer textile printer is used to produce labels cut from fabric tape. It prints well on satin and nylon, but is completely unsuitable for polyester and cotton. Numbers, signs, logo, text recommendations are applied to the base.

    Textile tapes are made from a material that can withstand 100% moisture, treatment with synthetic powders, exposure to the sun, temperature imbalance.

    The release of printer labels makes it possible to produce them with single-layer and double-layer printing.

    Nylon displays fine print better, while fine lines are hard to see on satin. This is due to the texture of the fabric: the first is smoother.

    The printing of textile products on the printer takes place in a one-dimensional format. Here it is impossible to convey the transition of shades or make a figure with a shadow.

    For labels, black ribbon is usually chosen; for dimensional, composite labels, a bright shade is more suitable.

    To work well with the ribbon, you need to set it in the right direction. This can be done with the help of a roll unwinder, on which a reel is placed.

    It is advisable to keep the ribbon responsible for the thermal transfer of printing on the label, otherwise the ribbon will be ordered once a month. To do this, the textile material is selected by 0.5 cm of the already printing component, so as not to scratch the thermal head when moving.

    Ribbon passing through a thermal transfer printer generates static currents, causing it to stick to the equipment. It is recommended to use a rewinder that sets the direction of the material coming out of the device. TSC solved the problem by adding brushes to the design to remove the electricity that builds up on the surface.

What is the use of fabric labels

    The application of certain elements of the image makes labels a good advertising tool for promoting goods and individual models of the range.

    So that the image after leaving the thermal transfer printer for printing on textile labels does not turn out to be “blurred”, choose a resolution of 300dpi or 600dpi. This is due to the heterogeneous structure of the treated satin surface. A positive effect is a slight increase in print temperature.

    For those who are interested in the production of single-use labels placed on bags, packaging polyethylene, we advise you to choose thermal transfer printers with a wax ribbon. For clothes subjected to cleaning, washing, a special textile ribbon is suitable.

    Purchasing a printer for label printing is an independent production of products in the right quantity, at the desired time. To choose the right model, determine what should be the productivity of the printer per day.
