Pad printing is the ideal choice for printing on plastic objects. This process offers exceptional advantages because the pad can be formed to the object to be printed - thereby making it possible to print on curved or uneven surfaces; ink transfer is also optimum. The use of RTV-2 silicone rubber produces the best results here. The printing ink is hereby transferred from the printing form (printing plate) to the generally uneven substrate via an elastic pad made of ELASTOSIL® silicone rubber.
Advantages:
- Very flexible adaptability to concave, convex and uneven surfaces
- Excellent transfer of color
Applications:
- Printing of objects in the healthcare and medical engineering industries, toys, porcelain and screw caps as well promotional materials of all types
- Numerous possible uses as printing processes in the automotive sector
