# Pad printing

What is pad printing?

It is a printing method that consists of transferring ink from a plate (cliché) to an article using a silicone pad. There are different types of plates, in our workshop we use steel plates, these are engraved by means of the engraved hole, they are very durable plates, our machines are closed inkwell, ideal for large print runs.

Most common applications

This printing system is used to print any type of article, it is ideal for printing texts and very small details without losing quality. The pad printing market is very broad, in our workshop we have printed: jewelry, bottle caps, toys, bottles, mugs, USB sticks, mechanical parts, among others, the transfer by means of the pad allows us to reach places that other printing systems they could not.

Pad printing by general line is used for printing figures and flat texts, 1.2 colors, being an industrial printing system it is the application that usually occurs, although it can be printed in 4 colors. In our workshop we print a maximum of 2 colors.

The range of materials is very wide, with this technique you can print practically any plastic, metal, aluminum, glass, wood, paper, it is precisely this particularity that makes it such a versatile printing system, the quality and resistance to the outdoors is excellent. It is always necessary to carry out an ink test, to test if it is necessary to use catalysts, to adjust the exact temperature and time of exposure to heat.
