DNP V390 - TTO
The DNP V390 is a premium, high-performance thermal transfer resin ribbon engineered for near-edge printers and Thermal Transfer Overprinting (TTO) systems. Designed for demanding packaging-line environments, it delivers sharp, durable barcodes, text, and graphics directly onto flexible packaging materials—even at high production speeds.
Superior Durability and Resistance
- Exceptional Mechanical Durability: Provides strong resistance to scratching, smudging, and abrasion encountered during production, transportation, and handling.
- Chemical Resistance: Withstands exposure to a wide range of industrial chemicals, solvents, and household cleaning agents.
- Oil and Fat Resistance: Resists greasy substances, edible oils, and food fats, helping maintain clear, legible print on food packaging.
- Heat Resistance: Preserves print quality and integrity during processes involving heat sealing and sterilization.
High-Speed Printing Performance
- High-Speed Operation: Delivers clean, well-defined prints at speeds of up to 20 inches per second (508 mm/s) or higher, while maintaining excellent edge definition.
- Fast, Smudge-Resistant Transfer: Formulated for rapid transfer and immediate print stability, minimizing smearing and ink tracking on high-speed production lines.
- Low-Energy Printing: Performs effectively at lower printhead temperature settings, helping reduce thermal stress and potentially extend the service life of near-edge printheads.
Ultra-Thin PET Base for Greater Efficiency
- 4.0-Micron PET Base: Uses an ultra-thin polyester film designed to provide an efficient alternative to conventional 4.5-micron ribbon bases.
- Extended Roll Lengths: The thinner base enables more ribbon material to be wound onto standard roll diameters, increasing the available printing length per roll.
- Reduced Changeovers: Greater linear meter capacity means fewer ribbon replacements and less downtime on production lines.
- Lower Material Waste: The reduced film thickness can help decrease plastic waste generated when used ribbons are discarded, supporting broader sustainability objectives.
Ideal Substrates and Applications
The DNP V390 is optimized for a wide range of flexible packaging and synthetic substrates, including PP, PE, PET, OPP, PVC, and various coated synthetic labels.
- Flexible Packaging: Suitable for flexible films, poly bags, pouches, pillow packs, and other packaging formats.
- Food & Beverage: Ideal for printing expiration dates, batch and lot codes, nutritional information, and other variable data on snack foods, dairy products, frozen goods, and packaged foods.
- Pharmaceutical & Healthcare: Well suited for tracking barcodes, manufacturing dates, serial numbers, and other identification data on medical devices, blister packs, vials, and related packaging.
- Cosmetics: Provides durable print performance where markings may come into contact with alcohol-based or oil-based cosmetic ingredients.
Combining durability, high-speed performance, low-energy transfer, and an ultra-thin PET base, the DNP V390 is designed to support reliable, efficient variable-data printing in demanding industrial packaging applications.
