Heat Shrink Tube and Barcode Printer



K-Sun Corp. has introduced the next generation of heat-shrink tube and barcode printers-the LW-PX900.

K-Sun and Epson co-developed this portable and PC-compatible thermal transfer printer by creating exclusive smart features based on user feedback. The LW-PX900 is designed for safety and facility professionals for safety/compliance, quality improvement and 5S/lean/visual workplace labeling.

"Features such as Drop-Stop, Pick & Print and Mixed Length plus removable magnetic feet for vertical hands-free operation plus wider widths of heat shrink tube make the LW-PX900 suitable for safety, compliance facility management professionals," said a company spokesperson.

Exclusive smart features include:

  • Drop-Stop holds a label after it is cut so it will not drop out of the printer. This feature works with a single label or with the Pick & Print mode for a series of labels.
  • Pick & Print automatically pauses after printing and cutting the first label in a series and resumes printing/cutting when the label is removed, eliminating the need to continuously type and print labels.
  • Mixed-Length lets the user create a strip of variable-length labels with a half-cut for easy removal and application, reducing tape waste.

Additional cost- and tape-saving features include a reduced lead margin of 4 mm and adjustable left/right margins down to 1 mm. Industry-specific hot keys are designed to simplify template selection for wire wraps, patch panels, face plates and punch blocks.

The LW-PX900's 360 DPI, high speed printing produces detailed single, continuous and die-cut labels. Other features include alphanumeric sequencing, auto-repeat, auto-cut, 13 languages and a 99-file printer memory.

PC-based models include the Label Editor Professional software with easy data import capabilities, 15 bar codes (including QR), 1,000+ industrial symbol library and nine industry catalogs with hundreds of label/sign templates.

The LW-PX900 uses PX Tape, which has more tape per cartridge and is available in hundreds of types, sizes and colors, including magnetic, fluorescent, photoluminescent, heat shrink tubing and more.
