HF3000
Top and Bottom Hot Foil Printer
The Taymer HF3000 Hot Foil Cable Printer is designed to simultaneously print on the top and the bottom of the cable. This is ideal for clear identification of power or other cables where the legend on one side may not always be visible after installation. Footage only, metric only and footage and metric models are available.
A built in microprocessor controls all aspects of the marking process and adjusts the machine to suit the changing conditions and speeds of the production line. Clear durable legends are produced at speeds up to 450 ft/min (150m/min).
The ease of operation and setup reduces scrap, production delays and the risk of damage to delicate communication and fibre optic cables. A dual tape spool and tape accumulator system eliminates print interruptions.
These standard features and more make the Taymer HF3000 a new generation in wire and cable printing.
