Hot Foil Technology Print

Wire & Cable Printers

Cable Marking

For over 40 years, Taymer has been making cable marking machines for wire, cable, pipe and conduit plastic extrusion lines. Through listening to our customers cable marking needs, we have developed innovative cable marking products including Hot Foil Printers, Indent Printers, Contact Ink Printers and Inkjet Solutions.

Wire Markers

Taymer manufactures high and low speed wire printing machines for wire harness fabricators, including continuous hot stamp wire markers and a control jet system for harness fabrication and cable assembly markers, providing printing solutions for the automotive, aerospace and construction industries.

Taymer’s Printer Benefits

Our Hot Foil Printers and Wire Hot Stamping Machines are economical to purchase and operate. All wire and cable marking machinery is manufactured in North America from locally available off-the-shelf components. Manufacturing is handled entirely by Taymer to ensure adherence to the standards and tolerances that have made the wire harness hot stamping machine the most reliable and rugged on the market. Our approach to hot foil printing for cable allows us to set new standards in print quality, accurate length measurement, reliability and ease of operation.

And now we have extended our product range to include wire and cable length measurement equipment as well as camera inspection systems for print verification and much more. For optimal quality and productivity, you can combine a Taymer printer with cable length measurement equipment or camera inspection print verification. Taymer’s cable hot foil printers can also be factory outfitted with the camera inspection system for print verification.

Taymer Benefits - Print Quality

Print Quality

Our superior print quality is the result of several factors:

  • Drum temperature control improves print quality with constant and accurate temperature
  • Print inserts are engraved to strict tolerances and character size can be specifically tailored to customer requirements
  • A PLC adjusts and synchronizes the drum and cable speed for superior quality and length measurement accuracy
  • Our system design maximizes the amount of pigment applied to the cable to ensure crisp, bright print.
  • The design of the guiding system and print drum ensures the print is clear and complete even if the cable is changing shape or rotating
  • Our Unique Print Head provides dependable long term operation

Our Unique Print Head provides dependable long term operation

Each wheel is hardened, ground and polished through our custom process to prevent sticking and pre-advancing. Its recessed design reduces friction and ensures accurate advancing.

The advance latch housing is fabricated from a steel alloy to ensure no distortion of shape under load. Our “positive lock” feature prevents the print wheels from jumping ahead more than one increment per revolution.

The rest of the machine is just as robust. We have refurbished heads over 20 years old where many of the original components such as shafts, wheels and cams were reusable.

Taymer Benefits - Accuracy and cost effectiveness

Accuracy & Cost Effectiveness

Our thirty five years of experience has resulted in a printer which adjusts the speed of the drum every 2 milliseconds. You are able to adjust the length numbering in increments of +/-.001 to ensure that excess cable is not produced.

In addition, tape is advanced only when printing so that there is no wasted tape for areas of the cable without a legend. Our equipment can also be interfaced to a laser-measuring unit if desired.

Taymer Benefits - Reliability

Reliability

We are the designers, builders and maintainers of all our equipment . Our equipment is tested extensively before shipment to confirm everything is working to specification.

Taymer Benefits - Ease of Use

Ease of Use
