silicone pad printing
Liquid Silicone rubber is essential in pad printing, providing the flexibility and durability needed for high-quality prints on diverse surfaces. The silicone pad, also known as a transfer pad, is made from high-temperature silicone rubber, allowing it to pick up ink from the printing plate and transfer it onto objects with precision. This process is ideal for printing on irregular shapes, from automotive components to medical devices. The high resilience of silicone rubber pads ensures consistent performance, making them a key component in pad printing machinery.
Key Features of silicone pad printing:
- Flexibility: Silicone pads are highly flexible, allowing them to conform to the contours of uneven surfaces.
- Durability: The silicone used in pad printing is resistant to wear and tear, ensuring that the pads maintain their shape and functionality over multiple uses
- Ink Transfer: The silicone material is designed to pick up ink efficiently from the etched image on the printing plate and release it accurately onto the object.
- Various hardness: When selecting liquid silicone rubber for pad printing silicone pad , hardness is a key factor that influences the quality of the print and the types of surfaces that can be effectively printed on. Silicone pads come in various hardness levels, from soft to hard for different applications, but CREKEM can custom the right pad printing silicone rubber for you.
