This is a ceramic barcode label that can be used in the extreme high temperatures and harsh chemicals encountered in manufacturing processes. It features a two-layer structure of white and black ceramic, and by irradiating it with a YAG or fiber laser to remove the surface black layer, the underlying white layer is revealed, allowing for the creation of barcodes and 2D codes. We can also propose a type that is engraved on the white layer, making the underlying brown stainless steel appear as black.

Fabric barcode labels woven with polyester thread and integrated barcodes! Unlike printed labels, they offer amazing wash durability and contrast. These barcode labels are suitable for factory work uniforms, various uniforms, and the management of clothing products. It is also possible to weave company logos and other designs using polyester thread in a variety of colors.

• Other physicochemical equipment

In the production process of sanitary ceramics, transfer paper for barcodes is sometimes used. During the drying process, large bubbles may occasionally form on the transfer paper. If the paper is fired in this state, the bubbles can create holes in the barcode pattern, making it unreadable and causing issues. It is believed that moisture in the clay turns into steam due to the heat during the drying process, resulting in the formation of bubbles. The Cerlabel WS-1200E efficiently releases this steam, completely preventing the formation of bubbles and providing a perfect barcode pattern without any distortion.

As barcode systems developed primarily in the POS industry have become widespread as tools for automating production factories and quality control, the barcode labels, which are supply items, can no longer rely solely on paper due to the diversification of production environments. Labels made from materials suitable for the usage environment have become essential. At our company, we initially developed ceramic barcode labels in response to a development request from semiconductor production technology personnel who faced such issues. This led us to engage in the production of barcode labels for special applications. By developing barcode labels suitable for various environments, we now offer a wide variety of heat-resistant and chemical-resistant labels. With the automation of industrial product production, we have greatly contributed to the digitization of product history and management in areas that were previously considered impossible to manage. For more details, please refer to the materials summarizing the case studies of the Cerlabel series.
