Pad for pad printing machine Reisch Associates

Therefore, pads are made in many shapes, contours and densities to accommodate a multiplicity of product forms. A basic range of about eight pads offer excellent printing onto approximately 90% of the printed products shown here. Many articles can be printed relatively cheaply, and in many cases very profitably by comparison with traditional processes. With a manual machine, printing rates of up to 600 units or prints per hour are attainable. An automatic printer will offer in excess of 1200 prints per hour, manually fed. Printing rates, naturally are subject to many factors, such as, product texture, substrate, shape, ink type used, drying times, etc. Pad elasticity offers many possibilities - single and multi-color printing onto round, concave, convex, uneven, textured - almost any surface or substrate. Re-usable inks are available for fast drying applications - 10 to 20 sec. drying time. Also two-pot catalyst inks for more difficult substrates such as anodized or plated metals, polypropylene, polyethylene, polyamide, phenolics such as laminated plastics, Ceramics and Glass products.
