If you are looking for cables, you have
a huge variety of types and versions to
choose from.
Placing markings and codes on the cables
during the production or fabrication
process makes them easy to identify,
reducing the risk that the wrong cables
will be installed in devices, equipment and
buildings.
KBA-Metronic will be showcasing the
latest technology and features which
enable cable and tube manufacturers
and fabricators to apply markings in an
e cient manner.
Putting markings on cables, tubing and
pipes presents a number of challenges.
Marking and coding solutions must keep
up with fast-paced production.
High process reliability is essential to
ensure that the markings adhere well
to the substrate and remain legible.
Maximum availability is equally vital,
because a fault in the marking system
brings the entire production line to a halt.
KBA-Metronic marking systems are highly
versatile, which is particularly important
in demanding applications, for example
for printing on special cable material and/
or at high speeds, or when signals must be
controlled by the software.
All of the marking systems can be
deployed as stand-alone solutions, or
they can be seamlessly integrated into
cable production and fabrication lines,
etc. Standard interfaces such as Ethernet,
RS232 and USB are provided for smooth
integration.
KBA-Metronic printers based on piezo
technology can be used to apply
high-resolution markings on challenging
surfaces and materials such as plastic,
glass, metal or even silicone. Special
solvent-based ink facilitates the use of
high-contrast pigments. Drying times are
kept to a minimum, and speeds of up to 1
metre/sec are achievable.
The KBA-Metronic portfolio includes
technology for any marking application.
Rugged alphaJET series continuous inkjet
systems apply markings to connection and
installation terminals, switches, buttons,
lamps, fuses, circuit breakers, PCBs, tubing,
cable harnesses and cables that have
extremely small cross-sections (as low as
0.35 mm²) with consistent, reproducible
quality.
CO 2, bre or diode-pumped YAG marking
lasers from the laserSYSTEM product line
are suitable for application of permanent
markings.
They are a solution particularly for
permanent markings on pipes and tubing,
which must withstand solvents and
cleaning agents.
The hpdSYSTEM hot foil coding system
produces good marking results in simple
applications where the codes do not vary.
