DOTshrink Heatshrink Tubing is supplied on continuous spools of up to 30 metres and printed via our DOT-FCM / DOTshrink System thermal transfer printer. The pre-formatted, user-friendly DOTlabel Software allows information to be imported direct from Word and Excel, as well as having an
automatic sequencing feature.
automatic sequencing feature.
The advantage of producing DOTshrink Heatshrink Tubing on a continuous spool is twofold. Firstly, it allows clients to change the length of each individual marker sleeve without changing the spool each time by simply selecting another template in DOTlabel Software, and more importantly, it’s more cost effective.
