Industrial marking Application areas
Industrial labeling plays an important role in all sectors of industry. Labeling plates ensure an overview of complex production processes and are used for safety labeling and traceability of machines and systems in manufacturing companies. Manufacturing companies place high demands on industrial label ing. High temperatures in a production process or regular contact with chemicals are just two examples. The complexity of the manufacturing processes results in different requirements in every sector of industry. As a manufacturer of industrial marking systems, we at Texit have gained a lot of experience on the market over the last 20 years. Here you will find an overview of information and products for labeling in the various industrial sectors:
Solar & Photovoltaics
In the field of solar technology and photovoltaics, UV and temperature resistance and high abrasion resistance play a particularly important role. This is because the marking is permanently located outdoors and is exposed to strong environmental influences. Whether cable markers or type plates for labeling inverters - discover the cable marking system for PV systems here.
Railway industry
In the railway industry, especially in rail vehicle construction, the marking must not only be durable, but also halogen-free. At Texit, our cable markers for the railway industry also meet the important European standards railway standard EN 45545-2:2016 (R22/R23) and the requirements of EN 50343:2014 (Annex H).
Electronics & switch cabinet construction
An essential element in control cabinet construction is safety and the associated clear, highly visible and permanent marking of electrical components through the formation of uniform reference markings. Cost-effective, individual and high-quality marking solutions with fast availability are in demand. TEXIT has specialised in this with a broad product portfolio and will work with you to create the optimum and permanent marking.
Wind turbines
Cold, heat, snow, humidity, salty climates - these are just a few examples of the extreme environmental influences to which the labelling of (offshore) wind turbines is exposed. Durability under extreme conditions is one of the most important requirements for labelling in the wind turbine sector.
Chemical, Oil & Gas Industry
The requirements for labelling in the chemical, oil & gas sector are very high. Reliable temperature resistance, safe chemical resistance and abrasion resistance of cable markers and labels are just a few examples. We at Texit have specialised in individual marking solutions for high requirements.
Machinery & Plant Engineering
In machine and plant construction, a wide variety of requirements are placed on marking. Texit offers a wide range of markers for indoor and outdoor applications. For permanent marking, high adhesive properties are required for the labels, among other things.
Telecommunications
In telecommunications, cable markers and labels are used in very different places. When marking transmission masts, the marking must be very robust and UV-resistant. If server rooms are marked, it is primarily a matter of long durability and easy handling. Self-laminating cable labels are often used here.
Event technology
Labeling plays an important role in the field of event technology. In hardly any other industry is so much equipment set up and dismantled in such a short time. In order to work as efficiently as possible, good planning and organization are absolutely essential. In this context, labeling is a central element. No matter if speaker cables, mixers or spotlights: With Texit you can mark all equipment in no time.
EDP & IT cabling
Reliable and flexible cable labeling is of crucial importance for IT cabling. To ensure structured cabling of computers and computer systems, it is necessary that all cables are clearly and legibly labeled. This is essential to enable efficient organization, easy maintenance and quick troubleshooting of the network system.
Machines & Devices
Since 2002, we have been supplying our customers in the machinery & equipment sector with high-quality marking products and developing individual solutions. Whether cable marking or labels - here you will find all the products that our customers in the machinery & equipment sector are already successfully using for marking.
Building Technology & Automation
Cable markers and labels are used in many different ways in building technology and automation. Since components and connecting parts are often used outdoors, the corresponding cable markers and labels must be very robust against various weather influences and UV rays.
Medical technology
Especially in medical technology, there are strict rules on the necessary labelling. Since 26 May 2021, machine- and human-readable product labelling has become mandatory here. Texit's high-quality polyester labels are particularly suitable for the optimal labelling of medical technology products.
Aerospace
Labelling of components, devices or cables is of existential importance in the aerospace industry because the highest requirements have to be met here. Only the necessary adhesive properties, physical abrasion resistance and temperature resistance to various substances in all three aggregate states ensure the function and safety of the technical systems for labels and cable markers. Texit has a broad product portfolio in this area and can supply suitable solutions.
Defence & Security
Security and defence is one of the most important industries worldwide. In addition to the classic areas such as weapons and ammunition manufacturing, communication and surveillance technology plays an essential role, as these technologies are also used in private areas. Whether for marking equipment or cabling in traffic and surveillance cameras or complex operations centres, Texit cable and label markers are used everywhere, as they are ideally suited for indoor as well as outdoor applications and have very high adhesive properties and abrasion resistance.
Shipping
Marking in shipping is exposed to high mechanical stress. Wetness, high salt concentrations and constant movement have a strong effect on the marking products. At Texit, we therefore have special products that meet these requirements for both conventional and military shipbuilding.
Texit industrial marking
As a manufacturer of industrial marking, we have been marketing industrial marking systems to our customers in the manufacturing sector for over 20 years. For identification and security marking, different quantities of marking are regularly required in industrial use. Therefore, the purchase of a complete printing system (carrier material for printing, thermal transfer printer and matching thermal transfer ribbon) has proven to be a good solution for our customers. In this way, medium identification and marking can be printed individually and flexibly on site at any time.
The thermal transfer process has proved particularly successful for industrial marking. In this process, the printing is melted onto the surfaces of the carrier materials (usually plastic, for example a type plate or cable label) by the action of heat. The resulting print has an extremely high durability and is therefore ideally suited for industrial marking.
Cable marking in industry
In production, not only product marking but also medium marking plays a major role. This marking includes, among other things, machine marking, but also the marking of cables in machines and complex plants. In the production of Texit cable marking, we rely on the highest quality. Thanks to our certified quality management, more than 1000 customers in over 20 industrial sectors already rely on our marking. You can find out more about our products in the cable labeling section. More information about our production and the properties of industrial marking can be found under the heading Service.
Labels for industrial marking
In addition to cable marking, labels are among the most important components of industrial marking. Labels fulfill a wide variety of functions. For example, they are used in the form of a type plate for machine identification. Test labels and warning signs are widely used as types of labels in industrial safety marking. Labels in production have very different functions, but all fall under the designation of industrial marking.
