Provide your rating plate with a 1D barcode or 2D QR code

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

Rating plates with QR code

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 Highack tapes with extreme adhesive strength.

Resopal labels – the alternative to engraved resopal plates

You have taken on a project and the specifications mention resopal slabs. Ordering rating 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 resopal labels/resolabels are the perfect alternative and are considered an equivalent product 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 resopal label with our ultra-strong SR20 Special Resin print ribbon and you are guaranteed a scratch-proof print suitable for years of industrial indoor and outdoor use.

Recommended material:


RL100 Resopal labels / Resolabels
