My brother in law is an industrial workshop technician. He has always been interested in technology and manufacturing processes. When I asked him what his hobby was he told me that he is a fire fan and enjoys creating strange contraptions from bits of wood which he buys from the DIY store. My brother in laws friend, who escaped to be a fireman and is now retired, joined him for an afternoon in February when I had told him about my blog. We built a firetruck out of bits of wood and plastic tubing. We used a garden sprinkler connected to the water supply. The system worked by attaching a metal hose pipe to the firetruck and connecting it to a metal tube which had been drilled into the bottom of the fire truck (or more precisely, to the top of my brother in laws toy fire truck). A small plastic nozzle was then attached to the tube and water gushed out when someone pulled down on either of two levers located on each side of the truck. It worked, so I sit in order to write this. We attached a garden hose to the fire truck and then turned on the water. When we pulled down on one of the levers, a little opening appeared at the bottom of the truck and a small amount of water came out. I was told that this is called a syphon – it's an ancient engineering principle which uses gravity to allow liquid to flow out of one container into another and then back again. We had aimed for enough pressure so that when you pull down on the lever, you hear a small hissing sound from inside the fire truck (the equivalent of putting your ear against someone's chest and listening to their heartbeat). That's what we got. I was told that if we had inserted a fire hose inside the truck and carried out a small amount of water from the hose, then this would be an even better comparison (just as it is for humans). It's not as powerful as an adult human heart, but it does the job. We had fun building the firetruck and disguising it with (probably unnecessary) flashing lights and a siren. But what about real technologies? Are there any that actually mimic biological systems in order to provide us with some advantage?
This is not just a simple philosophical question. Researchers have answered this question in the affirmative and have created actual technology which they claim mimics nature's efficiency. The technology in question is called Ultra-Fast Thermal Label which uses a process known as laser thermal transfer printing.
Laser thermal transfer printing is a technology which uses a laser beam to melt a thin layer of plastic onto the surface of paper or other materials. The liquid plastic is deposited as a very small drop. This drop covers several rows of the paper at once and solidifies almost immediately after it's printed on the surface. Laser thermal transfer printing has been around for several decades now, but recently researchers have come up with a way to significantly improve its efficiency by 40%. This increased efficiency has created an entirely new category of products which combines both speed and energy savings.
Ultra-fast Thermal Labels uses this new class of printing and combines it with a special kind of label. The Ultra Fast Thermal Label consists of two layers of plastic film. The first layer is the label itself, which can be printed upon with the laser thermal transfer printer to form text, an image or a combination of both. The top layer is a thin coating which actually slows down the temperature response in the underneath layer. By doing so, it gives that liquid plastic more time to cool off before being instantly set into place by the pressure applied when the lever is pulled down. This reduces the amount of heat which needs to be dispersed and creates a more efficient process in general.
Ultra-fast thermal label is aimed at users who need to create labels quickly and cheaply, but only need to print a label up once. This is the case with most companies which use labels as part of their internal processes. For example, keeping track of inventory or sending out information about a new product. Companies typically only need one label or a few dozen so printing them on demand rather than through the production line provides a much more efficient result.
Conclusion
Ultra-fast Thermal Labels is a very useful and highly efficient technology. It is also quite easy to use. The main downside of this label is that it has taken several decades to reach the market and has only been available for a few years. This means that when it does become more prevalent, there will be plenty of time for the technology to become ingrained in people's minds and accepted by society as a whole. This will allow for very high levels of efficiency and energy savings which are vital in our time of need. One could argue that this is not just important but necessary with so many problems facing our planet today.
