Hot foil is a contact coding method. Brass or steel characters are heated and stamped (using air pressure) through a foil ribbon onto the product, pack or label to deliver a crisp print.
hpdSYSTEM hot foil coders deliver quick value. Their long lifetime, low maintenance and absolute reliability make them one of the most economical coding technologies available.
