Pad Printing Principle
Pad Printing is an indirect way of printing.
The pad takes up the image from an etched printing plate and transfers it onto the object.
|
Pad and printing plate is in their starting position.
Printing plate moves forward
The printing plate glides forward underneath the ink cup, and comes to a standstill with the ink image underneath the pad.
By using extremely elastic pads, concave, convex, regular and irregular shaped objects can be printed.

The pad moves down and unrolls over the printing plate, taking up the inked image.
The image was correctly transferred onto the silicon pad.
The printing plate moves back (1), clearing the path for the pad to move down towards the product to print the image (2).
Step 6
Printing the product
The pad moves down and unrolls over the product, completely depositing the inked image.
The pad moves back to its starting position and a new printing cycle begins.
