Wax/Resin Ribbon

Wax/Resin ribbon contains numerous resin—which determines the high melting point of ribbon. Compared with wax ribbon, the energy point of wax/resin ribbon is higher, and on account of most resin is much stiffer than wax, images printed by them are more stabilized than those printed by the wax. Most of the wax/resin ribbons are made of two or more layers—but the proportion will be changed depending on demands. Wax/ resin ribbon is mainly used for smooth materials, especially for advanced printing materials, for example, signs of common consumable items, which integrate advantages of such two kinds of ribbons.

Application Areas: Logistics Management, Inventory Management, Retail Tags, Clothing Tags, Medical Use, Label printing.

Advantages: With advantages of resistance of high temperature, stain, heat, friction and corrosion, the Wax/Resin ribbon applies for various printing materials and different fields. The high definition of ribbon supports the printing of standard or rotary code bars with high quality.

Materials: Kraft Paper, Coated Paper, Synthetic Paper, Price Tags, Tags, Cartridge Paper, Man-Made Paper, Paperboard, PET/PVC, Etc.

What are the main features available in Wax/Resin Ribbon ?

The main material of wax/resin ribbon is wax and resin as the coating material. Mixing ratio will be changed on the basis of demands, mainly used for smooth surface, in general, used for more strict required product which is more suitable, such as common consumable products. Its performance combines the advantages of the above two kinds of carbon ribbons. Compared to wax carbon ribbon, hybrid carbon ribbon’s costs are higher but much more scratch resistant, wear-resisting. Its requirements of matched signs are much wider.

What's the difference Standard ,Performance and Enhance Wax/Resin Ribbon?

Wax/Resin ribbon is made of wax and resin. Due to the different portion of wax and resin, Wax/Resin ribbon will be divided into many categories. In order to achieve the best combination of cost and performance, we put the Wax/Resin ribbon divided into the following three categories. These categories whether have a strict distinction between standard or not, are just a kind of ways of evolutionary modes.

Standard Wax/Resin ribbon: the proportion of wax is a bit bigger, but of better anti-scratch and wear-resistant than pure wax carbon ribbon, at the same time it has wider choice than the pure wax ribbon.

Performance Wax/Resin ribbon: the portion of wax will be gradually reduced, and resin composition is on the rise. Relative cost will be higher.

Enhanced Wax/Resin ribbon: resin carbon ribbon will cost a lot more than the wax ribbon on market, and all common printing media can be used. It has certain characteristics of corrosion resistance, high temperature resistant.

Select the kind of mixed base carbon ribbon, on the basis of your printer and your print media. The best choice is the economic and affordable ribbon.
