TK180
TK180 is the most compact combined ATB and BTP printer with native AEA/ITPS firmware for seamless integration into CUTE and CUPPS platforms. Specifically designed for small check-in desks where space is limited, TK180 can handle ATB tickets as well as GPP paper rolls. Support for baggage tags is provided by the optional paper roll holder. TK180 can easily be configured as an ATB or BTP device during installation. TK180 has an automatic sensor calibration function that is triggered automatically every time paper is loaded, preventing any waste of tickets, thereby contributing to environmental sustainability and reducing management costs.
