Ceramic and glass pad printing

Glass and ceramics are not simple materials for printing. In order to ensure good adhesion and subsequent stability of the ink, a number of important factors must be taken into account: Cliché Thin steel clichés and nylon clichés can be used. We have developed a special type of nylon (photopolymer) nyp 25 C for ceramic printing. This nyp 25 C has been specially developed for multi-colour pad printing machines. The advantage of this system is…

Can pad printing machines print with other fluids besides ink?

Indeed, pad printing has a versatile range of applications beyond ink markings. It can effectively transfer various substances such as conductive materials, lubricants, solder paste, wax, adhesive coatings, biomedical chemicals, and many others. The pad printer remains indifferent to the specific media being transferred as long as it fulfills a set of fundamental requirements: The viscosity should resemble that of pad printing inks. The material should exhibit cohesion, maintaining its shape without beading up when…

Printing on silicone

Printing on silicone Printing on silicone can be challenging due to its smooth and non-porous surface. One common problem is that silicone is a material with low surface energy, making it difficult for ink to adhere. However, there are ways to ensure that the ink stays on the surface and doesn’t rub off. Use specialized silicone inks: There are inks on the market specifically developed for printing on silicone surfaces – you can find them…
