People
typically purchase preprinted bar code labels or
tags from us for one of the following reasons:
The
quantity of labels they require are so few
(or so sporadically required) that they
can't justify purchasing a complete
label
design and printing
system.
The
quantity of labels they need is so great
that it would tax their resources too
much.
They would
rather let somebody else worry about the
quality and be responsible for producing
labels and tags.
The
application environment in which the labels
or tags are to survive are extreme to the
point where only a factory-manufactured
product is suited to the task.
Preprinted labels and tags are typically provided in
consecutive (sequential) numerical order,
although they can also be generated from a
supplied database file. Graphics such as a
logo are a possibility and most any type of
bar code symbology can be printed on them.
Available label and tag materials
available from Aurora are:
Paper. Most commonly used
in the printing of library and video shop labels, or
short-term product or other identification labels.
Synthetics. Materials such
as polyester, vinyl, and polypropylene are used to
make moderately-durable bar code labels to be
affixed to indoor fixed assets, used as long-term
product ID labels, or many other uses.
Anodized Aluminum. This
material withstands a substantial amount of
abrasion, sunlight, caustic and solvent liquids, and
a host of other nasty things! They're typically used
to identify fixed assets and equipment that are
subjected to harsh environments.
Specialty
Materials. Tags made of stainless steel and labels
that will adhere to ceramic items that travel
through firing kilns are available from us, as is a
unique system that will etch bar code symbols onto
any conductive metal (e.g. surgical instruments and
tools).
Preprinted ID Cards & Keytags
Bar code ID cards
can, likewise, come preprinted or we can
provide you with the software and hardware
used to dynamically generate
your own ID
cards.
