Leadtech Printer-Leading Manufacturer in the Coding & Marking Industry since 2011.
The epidemic of new crown pneumonia has led to a rapid increase in the demand for masks. Knowing how to accurately assign codes on masks is crucial for manufacturers. Different types of masks have different coding requirements. Let's take a look at the points that the cij printer needs to pay attention to when printing on masks. 1. Different masks, different requirements. There are three types of masks: ordinary masks, surgical masks and N95 masks. Ordinary masks, such as daily protective masks, dust masks, etc., are mainly used for private daily use and can be sold without identification (only the packaging needs identification).
Surgical masks and N95 masks are different. Both must comply with certain standards, such as ISO and EN. It is stipulated that masks must carry specific logos, such as ISO number and 'CE' logo. It is also necessary to indicate the filter level of the mask, such as FFP1, N95 or KN95.
In order to meet the current legal requirements, medical mask packaging must carry the CE mark after the conformity assessment procedure is carried out to confirm its compliance with DIN EN 14683. Coding requirements for N95 masks When manufacturing N95 masks, they must comply with the EU Personal Protective Equipment Regulation (2016/425) and the particle filtration standard EN 149. Recognition must be permanent and easily recognizable. 2. Safety Masks are used for protection. The ink is used for coding. The choice of ink is important because the ink may come into contact with the wearer. 3. Fuzzy markings are invalid. The mask coding production line usually runs at high speed, and codes are assigned before the mask is die-cut into the final style. This process means that the mask will go through many subsequent production steps after being coded. If the ink does not dry, there is a risk of the logo being contaminated. It is recommended to use quick-drying ink to prevent the risk of contamination. 4. The quality of the label also implies the quality of the mask. It is undeniable that the end user will associate the poor quality of the label with the poor quality of the mask. It is best to use high-resolution inkjet printing, especially when printing logos, use inks with high contrast and light resistance. 5. Which coding technology is right for you? Thermal foaming (TIJ) technology is particularly suitable for the coding requirements in the production of masks. Continuous inkjet (CIJ) technology is another option for mask coding. The thermal foam printer can quickly print high-contrast, durable logos, and is suitable for production environments with limited space.Nowadays, it is very common for us to utilise in date printing machine. And the quality of is decisive to production efficiency.
