-Medical Device Labelling

-Medical device labelling is complex and highly regulated. Thermal transfer is used for labelling and packaging of individual devices, such as small packages, inner packages and large carton outer packages. Labelling reliability is important to ensure an efficient supply chain and patient safety.

In the U.S., the UDI system requires that every medical device be labelled with a traceability code, barcode and product identification. When thermal transfer technology is used, the print quality of bar code labels, logos, product drawings and other small-sized characters can be guaranteed.

Why use thermal transfer technology in this application?

The use of thermal transfer technology in medical device labelling has significant advantages. Due to the extremely high resolution of thermal transfer labels, it is easy to print tiny fonts and complex graphics, which is important for medical devices that need to display a lot of information in a limited space. For example, in the case of surgical instruments or precision equipment, clear labelling ensures that healthcare professionals can quickly identify the function and specifications of the equipment during use, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing operational errors.

Another advantage of thermal transfer labels is their durability. During the use of medical devices, equipment is often subjected to stringent sterilisation and cleaning procedures. Thermal transfer labels are able to withstand high temperatures, autoclave disinfection, and a wide range of disinfectants, ensuring that the information on the label remains intact and readable throughout the life of the device.

This not only helps maintain device traceability, but also reduces the additional costs associated with damaged labels.

The application of thermal transfer technology in medical device labelling not only meets the stringent requirements of the medical industry for accurate, durable and long-lasting labels, but also provides the medical industry with a high-speed, reliable labelling solution that ensures patient safety and improves the quality of healthcare services.
