Automotive

In the automotive field, every component from the smallest screw to the largest assembly, requires a identification. Labels are essential for product tracking, inventory management and safety protocols. Helping companies ensure that the right parts are in the right place at the right time. Traditional labelling methods, which rely on ordering standardised labels from suppliers, often lack the flexibility, that providers need to adapt to changing requirements and urgent situations. That’s where the CPM-100H Printer from Lighthouse UK Ltd steps in. It’s a compact, powerful tool that lets you create a custom, professional label in minutes. No waiting. No middleman. Just produce labels, when and wherever you need it. Ready to see the difference? Book a demo now and see CPM-100H in action.

Whether you need more personalised asset marking, to easily identify parts with raster (pixel) images, type approval labels for various vehciles (commercial or otherwise), the CPM-100H and CPM-200 printers can assist. If you require small font (point) print, for small barcode labels, then the 400dpi resolution of the CPM-100H printer is more than adequate to respond to that demand. However, if you need this to be printed on our Polyester materials (for instance our 3M Silver Grey Polyester (100mm: CPMSP51, 200mm: CPMSP251) as part of vehicle parts labelling, please note they are more than adequate, espcially for the likes of seat belt calipers. As the CPM-100SH is designed for product marking with higher print speed (50mm/s compared to 25mm/s with the other CPM Series printers) on Polyester materials, then if speed is also a requirement, this model will definitely suit.

Why not use our clear materials (vinyl or polyester) for marking the inside of your vehicle windscreens (for whatever bespoke labelling requirement you may have). You can reverse print so that the image or text appears correctly on the outside. This label for instance was achieved on a Clear (Transparent) Low Tack Removable Polyster CPMSP20). The first colour print was red followed by white to cover the background. When applied, this is the effect you get. The benefit of the Clear (Transparent) Low Tack Removable Polyster (CPMSP20) compared to other clear media is that it can be removed easily without leaving any adhesive residue. This would be ideal in the case of vehicles needing to be shifted quickly but where the labels should be peeled off without leaving any mess (adhesive build-up) behind. Thus avoiding the need for a massive cleaning in a difficult/tight space. Effectively saving you money, time and improving the processes in place.

The versatility of the CPM-100H makes it a valuable tool for various labelling applications in the automotive industry: Parts and Component Labelling Automotive manufacturers deal with thousands of parts, from nuts and bolts to complex engine components. CPM-100H allows manufacturers to label each part with unique serial numbers, part numbers, and barcodes for easy tracking and inventory management. Equipment and Tool Marking Production tools and equipment are essential assets on the factory floor, and labelling can streamline tool tracking and maintenance. CPM-100H can produce durable labels for tools, machines, shadow boards and workstations, helping maintenance teams manage repairs and replacement effectively while keeping workstations organised. Continuous Improvement with 5S Labels Continuous improvement processes like 5s – relies on clear, consistent labelling to sustain organisation and efficiency on the factory floor. The CPM-100H plays a vital role in 5S implementation by enabling automotive manufacturers to produce custom labels for sorting, organising and standardising workspaces. Safety and Hazard Labels CPM-100H can create high visibility safety labels for hazardous areas, machinery warnings, and chemical containers, promoting workplace safety and compliance with regulatory standards. Quality Control Tags Quality control is a top priority in automotive production. With the CPM-100H, manufacturers can produce colour coded quality control tags to indicate items that have passed inspection, require rework, or are set aside for testing.

High Resolution Printing For Clear Identification The CPM-100H’s high 400 DPI resolution ensures that labels are crisp and easy to read. Durable Label For Harsh Environment Automotive parts endure high temperatures, exposure to chemicals and frequent handling, meaning that durable labelling is crucial. Network Printing Convenience CPM-100H’s network printing feature enables effortless printing from connected devices, streamlining workflows and enhancing accessibility. Customisable & Multi-colour printing The multi colour capabilities of the CPM-100H allow for colour coded labels. Using Lighthouse MAX 10 software, you can fully customise your label to your specific requirements. Cost Efficiency In the fast paced automotive industry, production schedules and inventory needs can shift quickly. The CPM-100H’s on-demand printing capability means that labels can be produced as needed, minimising delays and reducing dependency on the third party suppliers. Enhanced Compliance and Safety Labelling With industry regulations like HSE (Health and Safety Executive) in place, clear labelling for safety and compliance is a must in the automotive sector. The CPM-100H makes it easy to create compliant labels featuring safety symbols, hazard warnings and handling instructions.
