Solution: A tough label that sticks and stays
Brady suggested its tough B-483 polyester label and the highly portable and versatile BMP61 Label Printer.
The B-483 polyester label, equipped with a rubber adhesive, offers firm adherence
to a wide range of surfaces, including textured metals and low surface energy
plastics. This enables the label to stick to a very wide range of ship spare parts and
tools. The B-483 label also provides great reliability in high (120°C) and low (-40°C)
temperatures, and in humid, sunny and salty environments. Dust, oil or water can
be wiped off easily without damaging the label print. The extreme reliability of the
label allows for reliable part and tool barcoding in challenging marine environments.
With the BMP61 Label Printer, ship crews can easily label any part and tool.
Equipped with label design wizards, and easily linkable with label design software,
the BMP61 allows for easy label creation in various sizes and label materials. The
printer also recognises Brady consumables and auto-adapts its settings to optimally
print the loaded label size and material type.
For their offices, the shipping company decided on the M611 Label Printer, driven
by Brady’s Express Labels App that can be installed on any smartphone. The M611
seamlessly responds to any user’s trusted phone via Bluetooth or wifi, and can print
the B-483 label as well as many other label materials in various sizes.
