Mechanical engineering stickers

From rating plates and inspection stickers to ID labels and countless other markings!

On your specific machines, you need to comply with safety standards and CE and/or UL certification.

This requires mandatory stickers such as a serial plate, machine instructions, ID labels, safety texts and pictograms.

Many companies choose a system from Rebo because they no longer want to depend on third parties. If a specific label is required, it can be created and printed right away using our systems.

Rebo has extensive experience in this industry and offers a wide selection of tape materials and label printers that are ideally suited for machine coding. On this page, you will find information on various applications within this industry.

CE marking on machinery


When traded or put into service after 1 January 1995, the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC must be fully complied with for all new independently operating machinery, for trade and/or own use. This requirement also applies to second-hand machinery imported from outside the European Economic Area* (EEA), to modified machinery, with hazards and risks different from the original design and to machinery with a different intended use.


Practical situation:

You import machines from Asia but after your modification, the original nameplates no longer display the correct technical data and safety symbols required by EU CE directives.


Consequence:

Your machines cannot leave until this is sorted out!


Solution:

With a Rebo rating plate printer can easily design and print your personalised type plate with CE marking on high-quality tape materials. Our labelling software also features all the ISO safety symbols which, combined with your specific instruction in the appropriate language, can simply be made with the same printer. Simply change materials and print!

Recommended material: PT700 Mat Alu & Semi Gloss Alu Polyester with high adhesion.

CE marking for steel structures (EN-1090-1)



Practical situation:

From 1 July 2014, all components of a load-bearing steel structure must have CE marking according to the NEN-EN 1090 guidelines.


Consequence:

A construction product may no longer be marketed without CE marking if a harmonised European standard has been published for the product. This measure places high demands on the traceability of structural components.


Solution:

This traceability requirement therefore demands a high-quality label that is scratch-resistant, very difficult to remove, and should be UV-resistant for years. You easily meet these requirements by coating your structural parts with our high-tack polyester tapes (in white or aluminium-coloured versions) printed with our SR10 Resin ink ribbon.

Aanbevolen materiaal: PT700 Hightack Gloss Polyester white or aluminium with extreme adhesion.

UL marking on export



Practical situation:

You want to export industrial control cabinets to the US but here your CE mark does not apply. They must comply with the UL 508A guideline. Apart from the fact that your switchgear must comply with this, there is also a requirement for the label to be UL-certified.


Consequence:

Your machines cannot leave until this is sorted out!


Solution:

Design your personalised nameplates and print them on our UL-certified white and aluminium polyester tapes.

Recommended material: UL-listed PT700 white or aluminum-coloured polyester.

Rating plates for cooling and refrigeration plants



Practical situation:

Part of the PED mandatory certification is that all delivered refrigeration and cooling systems are required to have a rating plate on which the technical specifications and filling details are stated and, if necessary, an instruction card is placed.


Consequence:

If you do not provide the plant with a rating plate, it is not PED-certified and you are in violation.


Solution:

With a Rebo label printer, you print all installation details and your logo on the scratch-resistant and UV-resistant rating plate in seconds. You also have the option of supplementing your licence plate with an instruction card or printing it out separately.

Recommended material: Durable white or semi-gloss aluminium polyester.

Rating plate with 1D barcode or 2D QR code



Practical situation:

Service technicians and engineers like to have quick insight into the plant’s maintenance data in case of breakdowns and maintenance.


Consequence:

Manually searching and typing data takes time and can lead to errors.


Solution:

Also print a unique QR barcode on the identification plate so that the engineer can scan it with a laptop or tablet, thus connecting directly to the maintenance software online. These barcodes can of course also be printed as separate asset labels to quickly visualise all machine and installation parts during maintenance stops, for example. The surface you apply the labels to can be very diverse and these critical labels need to stay in place under tricky conditions. We therefore recommend using our High-tack tapes with extreme adhesive strength.

Aanbevolen materiaal: HT700 High-tack Vinyl or PT700 High-tack Glossy Polyester with extreme adhesion.


Prevent warranty fraud



Practical situation:

You supply expensive hardware with a certain warranty period. Users within this period (e.g. due to a malfunction) are going to make their own changes or repairs anyway, damaging the equipment or machine. A warranty claim is wrongly made by the user however it is difficult for the manufacturer to prove that the customer caused this himself.


Consequence:

You vindicate the obvious customer – because the customer is king – but the warranty is wrongly claimed.


Solution:

For fraud-sensitive equipment and products, we recommend printing on our VOID tape that captures all important data in a tamper-proof label.

This label seals access to equipment. If a user decides to delete the label, this will leave the text VOID and the label will not be usable again. It is then obvious that the equipment has been tampered with and you can prove that the warranty claim is not valid.

Recommended material: PV500 Void Polyester


Resolabels – the alternative to engraved resopal plates



Practical situation:

You have taken on a project and the specifications mention resopal slabs. Ordering these plates is often time-consuming and costly.


Consequence:

You are dependent on long delivery times from your supplier and high production costs for smaller quantities.


Solution:

Our resolution labels are the perfect alternative and are considered equivalent in most cases.

This material consists of a 2mm high-quality foam tape coated with a white or silver polyester film. This makes it a thickened “label” but looks and feels like an engraved solid plate. Big advantage is that you can easily design and print the resolution label yourself, you won’t have to wait and you’ll have lower costs.

The quality of material and print is very high because you print the Resolabel with our ultra-strong SR10 Resin ribbon and you are guaranteed a scratch-resistant print suitable for years of industrial indoor and outdoor use.

Recommended material: RL100 Resolabels


Heavy Duty Identification for extreme situations


Practical situation:

You develop machines exposed to harsh conditions such as mechanical load, high-pressure and/or chemical cleaning, weather influences or extremely high/cold temperatures.


Consequence:

You are looking for a label (material) that remains extra durable / permanently attached to your equipment and also meets the set guidelines/requirements.


Solution:

Our PT700 aluminium polyester line features a non-ageing permanent adhesive as standard. As standard, this material is scratch-resistant, light chemical resistant and UV and weather resistant. In addition, we can supply this material with a special Hightack adhesive layer that will make your label adhere even to very difficult surfaces.

For most extreme situations, we have developed a laminate that you can easily apply to the label as an extra protective layer, which will make it even more resistant to UV and chemicals.

Recommended material: PT700 Polyester

If you would also like to use your corporate style colours with the type plates (e.g. full-colour logo), we also offer the option of pre-printing your serial plates, after which you print the variable data yourself with the Rebo printer.
