> Hi All,
>
> We are using the 3M "Matte silver polyester Printable Label Sheet" to
> make some lables to stick on the enclosures of the devices we
> manufacture, but we have very low productivity yield for these labels,
> due to the followings:-
> 1. the label sheets would easily get scratches during printing (by
> lazer printer), we have to make a lot before we can sort out some good
> quality labels.
> 2. in the process to stick the lable to the enclosure, if the
> alignment is out or if scratches are made on the label, the label has
> to be peeled out and redo with a new one again.
> 3. our labels need a number of holes and now the technician only use a
> razor blade to cut the holes which is time consuming, even worst, if
> there is something wrong in the process, say, a scratch was made on
> the label, the whole lable would spoil and needed to redo with a new
> one again.
>
> Are there other decals we can use that don't have the problem above?
> Are there any vendors that will make the lables for us so that we only
> need to stick it to our product? But we need only a relatively small
> quantity so most vendor wouldn't have interest? What material the
> decal is made up with and the cost is NOT our first priority, the
> major concern is that the quality of the label must be good, and they
> won't have the same low productivity issues as mentioned above (if we
> need to process the decal ourselves).
>
> Thanks in advance!
