LabelTac 9 Large Label Maker

When looking through all the different options for industrial label printers, you’ll want to make sure you choose one that will meet all of your facilities needs. One important thing to consider is what size labels you need to print. In many cases, it can be important to be able to create oversized labels to help improve hazard communications, and general labeling throughout the facility.

When this is the case, the LabelTac 9 label maker is one of the best options on the market today. This large label maker allows you to create high quality labels that can be up to 9’’ wide. It can print up to 4’’ per second, so you can create extremely large labels without any type of delay.

Why do you need a Large Label Maker?

Large label makers are a great choice because they can be used for so many different things throughout the facility. The following are some of the most common reasons why these types of label printers are used, but you’ll also find other specific benefits for your own facility.

OSHA Labeling – There are many things that need to be labeled within a facility in order to meet OSHA regulations. Being able to print them off immediately within the facility will help ensure you are always compliant with all regulations.
Drum Labels – Large drums are frequently used for storing chemicals and other substances within a facility. Creating a large label that will be placed on these drums will help ensure everyone can easily see what is within them.
Safety Signs – Since these labels can be so large, you can print them off to be used as signs throughout your facility. It can be anything from a sign letting people know where safety equipment is stored, to any type of safety warning signage that is needed.
Extra Large Signs – It is also possible to print off edge to edge labels, so you can combine them to form virtually any sized sign that you need.
Marketing Labels – Many companies will use these types of labels to create internal marketing tools. Putting up signs with company logos on them, or adding a label to facility property identifying the owner of each item is a great way to build company loyalty.

There is, of course, no real limit as to what you can use these types of labels for. Go through your facility and look for different areas within your facility where everyone can benefit from improved communication.

Printing Smaller Labels

Of course, even large label makers can still print off the smaller labels as well. Depending on the specific needs of your facility, it is easy to load up smaller label stock, so you can print off the custom labels you need.

This is important for being able to label tools, smaller containers, and many other things as well. In fact, for many facilities it is more common to print off smaller labels than it is to use the larger label options. It is good, however, to have the ability to print off the larger labels when you have the need.
