Seiko Embedded Thermal Printer Mechanisms

Compact, reliable low voltage thermal printer mechanisms are the answer for portable printing applications, offering low power consumption to enable long battery life. The innovative small footprint designs free up critical design real estate.

New low voltage LTPD and CAPD series thermal printer mechanisms tackle the challenges of designing smaller, faster, more reliable mobile devices. These new mechanisms deliver exceptional value with dramatic advances in design flexibility, reliability and print performance.

CAPM series direct thermal printer mechanisms are ideal for high performance, heavy-duty embedded printing applications. 300 mm/second print speed means exceptional performance, for a better user experience. Service life ratings of up to 200 km printing and 2 million cuts ensure long-life, trouble-free operation. Extended operating temperature range and thick paper support provide additional application options such as outdoor ticket printing. Units are available in both EZ-OP paper operation and auto-loading designs.

CAPM347 - Add to quote

Max. 300mm/s, an extremely high reliability of 200km abrasion resistance and 2 million cuts: the CAPM347 series meets the state of the art in heavy duty thermal printing. The front paper exit structure leaves enough space above the printer for other purposes and prevents e.g. liquids from dropping into the printer. The gears are completely covered to avoid dust entering the printer.

The user friendly mechanism offers models different models: easy paper load, auto paper load as well as models for thick paper applications.

This compact 24V high speed heavy duty thermal printer series supports a wide range of applications in markets such as: Lottery, Ticketing, Parking, Point of Sales and Kiosk.

Serial and USB interface boards are available.

Case Study: Thermal Print Mechanism and Chip for Temperature Monitoring Units

Our client provides temperature monitoring units for refrigerated vehicles. These compact devices take temperature readings at regular intervals throughout the journey and produce a log of the temperatures alongside the time of each reading. Whether the delivery is a batch of prawn sandwiches, medical vaccines, or cut flowers, this information not only gives the receiver piece-of-mind that the goods have arrived in perfect condition, but also satisfies the legislation that the transport industry has to conform to.
