What is Thermal Transfer Overprinting (TTO)?
Thermal Transfer Overprinting (TTO) is an advanced printing technology that creates high-quality information by bringing a thermal print head into contact with a substrate, achieving resolutions of up to 203dpi or 300dpi. This technology is widely used in the packaging industry, particularly suited for fast production lines.
Working Principle
The print head consists of a series of miniature printing elements located beneath a ceramic coating. The thermal printer ribbon is coated with a colored wax and/or resin mixture. When the print head heats up, the mixture on the ribbon melts in small areas and transfers color onto the substrate surface, ensuring the printed information is clear and durable.
Key Features
Application Fields
TTO printing technology is widely used in the food, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods industries, as well as other sectors requiring high-quality coding, ensuring accurate communication of product information and compliance.
