  • Page 9: The Support Arm

    The support arm is used to position the HQC and any counter-pressure plate in relation to the product to be printed. The support arm is suitable for moving the HQC to any position. The exceptionally short stamping time makes it possible to print directly onto a moving product without further modifications. Kortho Hot Quickcoder User manual...
