Here’s a 3/4 HP label I made this morning.
And one I made a couple weeks ago with a small mistake that I only caught after label was applied.
Sorry to hear about your previous attempt to get a new label. I read your other posts and it was part of the motivation for me making labels for free. Glad I can help you out.
Here is a new label sublimated onto brushed aluminum 0.040" thick.
This was the most challenging label so far for a variety of reasons. First the photo you took was slightly distorted so I had to use some Photoshop magic to remove the distortion to get accurate measurements. Then I could redraw it in vector format.
It is printed directly onto aluminum plate via a sublimation process which means the ink is in the metal, not just on the surface. It will not fade or wear. The only way to get the print off is to scrape off a layer of metal.
There is a trim line around the border but I did not trim it for you. Do you have a band saw or a metal shear to trim it to size? If not I'll see what I can do there finish it up before sending it you.
I left the model number and serial number fields blank so you can metal stamp them (it didn't seem right to print the numbers that were originally stamped).
I would be happy to do more of these and found that a purpose built sublimation printer is about $400. I already have the heat press. If enough folks need reproduction metal labels and can contribute towards the printer, then I can provide the labels at no additional cost. I never intended to ask for any compensation for these labels but if there are 20 folks that need a label and each contributes $20 then I would be able to make labels for everyone for a while. (there is a small cost for the supplies which I should be able to cover)
Here’s a Rockwell label I made last week for a GJ member
And the original
I purchased tag from MRO supply. You need to call them up to order it and it runs about $50. You can find them online.
You have to be very specific when ordering the label or it will not be what you expect.
You need to request that they make the label using the NP3118 blank (if they use the NP0234 the factory will scratch out the UL symbol!).
Also, it is customary that the order number be shown as the Cat No of the label, but you can request that the original cat no be shown (8107W in my case).
(Default cat no on first label and lots of data is wrong)
(UL scratched out intentionally on second and cat no still wrong)
So it took 3 tries and a call to the factory but I got a good label and they let me keep the defects. MRO supply was good to work with but they have to drop ship these from Baldor’s Arkansas factory. Each label took about a week to get.
I recommend sending them an email with a photo of the label and an exact list of what data should be used in each field.
The label comes with 2 drive screws.
