(Summary description)Tagging medical devices

 

Sensitive information in corrosive environments
During a product's life cycle, identification and traceability data is subject to various forms of attack that can affect the clarity of information.

Certain sterilization processes, such as autoclaving, will subject the ink to severe tests, both wet and high temperature. These conditions will easily obscure information during contact with other products or during operation.
In a hospital setting, the use of ethanol solutions during patient care may degrade the print on medical device labels during handling.

 

Compliant with labelling regulations
For example, in the United States, the UDI (Unique Device Identification) system requires that each medical device must be marked with a unique traceability code, barcode and product label on its label.
Thermal transfer enables uniform printing of labels, including various types of barcodes, logos, product drawings and other small characters: a guaranteed flexibility for medical device manufacturers.
