The market demands more and more compact and flexible designs for automations and system solutions. For machines with high hourly outputs the camera inspection of good and bad parts has become a standard feature in the meantime; additional processes such as assembly or checking have to be integrated. It is, however, necessary that semi-automatic machines for smaller but often changing series can be retrofit within a very short period of time.
High-speed pad printing machine as a symbiosis of machine construction and application engineering by TAMPOPRINT® AG. As a leading turn-key supplier TAMPOPRINT is able to implement customer URS (User Requirement Specifications) into special machinery. |

There is a clear trend towards automations, and additionally beside of the successful standards even to customized system solutions for the special demands of our customers from all over the world. The export share is over 60%. High-precision marking, often combined with the European hygiene standards as it is often the case in the pharmaceutical supply industry, are the key tasks for the tampon printing at TAMPOPRINT AG.
The ALFALAS laser systems are a complement to the tampon printing and one cannot imagine the modern marking processes without them. Whether day and night design in the automotive or telecommunication industries, wood grain design or marking of spare parts. There are often machine lines which represent a symbiosis of both marking technologies.
The perishability of the modern industrial design and individually adapted workpieces require a just-in-time production with a low number of pieces and this will well accommodate the laser marking. |

Our latest concept in pad printing machine design is where the
customer’s requirements are converted into a product that totally
meets their printing needs. During the design and development of
these machines, attention is given to the smallest of detail to
ultimately provide a machine with a very high operating flexibility,
and which is still operator and maintenance friendly. At the heart of
the entire new generation SL-pad printing machines is the use of the
latest technologies.
The machine is fitted with a free programmable PLC, which gives
the control advantages detailed below.
- Individual print job programs and parameters are stored in
memory and can be recalled at the press of a button. This
gives ease of machine set up and a reduction in both set up
and down times giving increases in both production and profit.
- The parameters once set, can be locked by an access code
to prevent alterations by unauthorized personnel.
- Operating control by visual touch screen panel.
- Machine self-diagnostic check
- Machine can be used as a stand alone or integrated into an automated system.
Machine movement is provided by two, frequency controlled electric motors. These drive the pad stroke and
printing plate movement, and by using the electric drive coupled to the controllability of the PLC, the following
printing advantages becomes available.
- Speed and movement can by finally adjusted to give a smooth printing action with guaranteed print quality.
- Having an electric drive the machines dies not suffer from air pressure fluctuations, the result being you
get better and more constant print quality.
- Low running costs, which increases your company’s competitiveness.
- Increased printing force allows you to optimize your printing operations by allowing you to use pads that
are larger, harder and with steeper sides. |

The remit for the construction of the ‘Rotoprint’ model was a compact design while still achieving a high output.
The concept allows an output of up to 100,000 or 150,000 units/hour for closures with a 28 mm diameter, depending on the settings.
For closures with a 38 mm diameter, the machine achieves an output of approximately 75,000 or 110,000 units/hour.
The ‘Rotoprint’ can be set up for print images with 1–3 colours.
With all variants, parts are fed using the well proven sorting elevator, eliminating the need for unnecessary machine stops due to closures being the wrong way round. The storage reservoir of the sorting elevator can be filled on request using the Octabin tilting stations.
The system is fitted with exchangeable mandrels. This guarantees a quick and economical process changeover on the system when printing several cap types.
The ‘RTI 2000’ printing unit is operated without the use of any tools and requires no external ink supply systems. This dramatically reduces set-up times and ensures trouble-free operation. Gas is used in the process of end drying. This guarantees that the ink dries quickly and assists ink adhesion.
The products are discharged in correct position on a cold-air drying conveyor.

Pad printing is an indirect gravure printing process. The copy or image is etched into a steel plate called a cliche. The cliche is inked and then cleaned with a doctor blade. This leaves the ink in the etched areas only. A flexible silicone pad picks up the image from the cliche and then transfers the image to the product.THIS SYSTEM is adaptable to a variety of shapes and contours on parts with a variation in the surface, yet fine detail and precise copy can be achieved. Two color process is obtained with exact registration. Pad Printing is ideal for decorating toys, plastic housewares, and injected mold components.
This technology also lends itself to marking electronic components such as resistors, canisters, and connectors. Any part, plastic, ceramic, or metal can be production marked by this process. The equipment can be semi or fully automated, yet remains a low capital expenditure. |

There are six models in our line of Printex G2 pad printing machines. Although each model is separated by size and multifunctional capabilities, they are united by a common design criterion that bring advanced and practical advantages to the end user.
Our modular concept incorporates built in mechanical; electrical; and control interface features which enables every model G2 printer ready to mate with automation (yours our ours).
By using an array of optional “plug and play” devices such as our pneumatic or servo actuated slides, motor driven turn tables, carousel or over/under indexers, as well as transverse ink cup drive devices, the user can easily transform a G2 printer to meet different printing situations and requirements.
Six years since its introduction, the G2 “modular concept” has been a proven success, from concept to application, this is what separates G2 from the competition. |

Printex offers a large selection of silicone printing pads. Using the highest quality silicone, our pads offer excellent ink transfer to a substrate; our printing pads also provide superior tear- strength and solvent resistance.
pads
Round
The first shape designed for pad printing and one of the most common pads used today.
These pads minimize distortion while placing an image on to a cylindrical surface.
Loaf
Derived from the round pad, size limitations required the round shape to be squared-up on 2 or more sides, developing the loaf pad.
This narrower profile, allows the loaf pad, to be positioned in restricted areas. The design of the loaf pad allows for 2 or more pads to be easily grouped together.
Bar
Shaped like the roof of a house, these pads were designed for long narrow applications. Long lines of text are difficult to print with round or loaf pads due to the over-compression it would take to pick up the lengthy image
The bar pad allows for items, such as long lines of text, to be printed with very minimal compression on the pad.
Recommended for printing on flat surfaces, due to the shapes inability to minimize distortion on rounded surfaces.
Durometer (Hardness)
We recommend selecting the maximum amount of hardness that the product can support for the best possible print.
Printex offers 3 Standard Durometers:
SOFT (yellow backing) 45 shore
MEDIUM (blue backing) 55 shore
HARD (red backing) 65 shore |
