ULS.2 label printer allows color coding for hose storage and maintenance

October 15, 2019 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

The new ULS.2  label printer from UNIFLEX helps manufacturers of hose assemblies and repair workshops for hydraulic hoses to affix color-coded “BBD” labels on their workpieces so that the latter can be replaced in time before potential wear damages actually occur. Another benefit is that the manufacturer’s mark can be added as an advertising measure.

ULS.2 label printer from uniflexIf a hydraulic hose bursts or is leaking, the machine stands still until a replacement has been provided and built in. In most cases, such machine downtimes cost a lot of time and money. To prevent these expensive and lengthy repairs, UNIFLEX’s  ULS.2 label printer can be to ensure that hoses and other components of the system can be replaced in time, for instance, as part of regular maintenance operations, before potential damages due to wear and tear occur.

The label printers are operated via the touch screen of the UNIFLEX control C2 or wirelessly via an optionally available App on the user’s own smart phone or tablet.

The labels are available in two different widths/breadths. Both variants come in banderoles — 5,000 pieces of transparent, pre-printed foil made of high stability high-performance vinyl that has been specially developed for optimum adhesion on surfaces of rubber and thermoplastic hoses. To secure a long service life, the labels are UV resistant.
