PAD PRINTING PADS

We offer a wide range of pad printing pads for many industries across the world. Our printing pad supplies are available in different materials, shapes, sizes, and durometers (hardness). Also, we offer pad bases made of different materials, such as aluminum, wood, or Delrin plastic. All these factors are crucial in successfully transferring an image from the plate to the object with a pad printing machine.

PAD PRINTING INK

Let us help you find the right ink for pad printing and color for your application. We offer a wide range of inks, each with a different finish, adhesion, and abrasion properties. Available ink services include free ink adhesion testing and ink color matching services in Pantone, RAL, CMYK, and HKS.

We not only offer solvent-based pad printing inks, but we also offer UV, water, and silicone-based inks. These inks are used to print the world’s most challenging substrates, such as silicone, glass, nitrile, EPDM, etc.

Lastly, all our inks undergo rigorous quality and compliance testing to ensure that they not only pass but also exceed industry standards.

PAD PRINTING HARDENER

Hardener, known as a crosslinker or catalyst, is an important pad printing consumable in the pad printing process. This pad print supply enhances the durability, adhesion, and resistance properties of the ink.

PAD PRINTING SOLVENT

Solvent is another important pad printer supply. Solvents (thinner) dilute, clean, and adjust the viscosity of pad printing inks. Additionally, solvents ensure that the ink is in the right condition for effective image transfer onto the substrate. We offer different solvents depending on the ink line, material, regulations, and printing speed requirements of the printing application.

PAD PRINTING PLATES

The pad printing plate (cliché) acts as the carrier for the image in the pad printing process. Chemicals or a laser engraver etch the image onto the plate. An ink cup floods the image with a thin ink film. A printing pad then picks up the image and transfers it onto the substrate.

We offer nylon (photopolymer), laser, thin steel, and thick steel plates.

PAD PRINTING INK CUPS AND RINGS

The ink cup is a crucial component of a pad printing machine. The ink cup acts as a reservoir, which holds the pad printing ink. Components of the ink cup include the body, O-ring, vent plug, and a ring (ceramic or tungsten). The O-ring absorbs shock when the machine is rocking back and forth. The ink cup ring cleans the excess ink from the image.

We offer the widest variety of pad-printing ink cups and replacement rings to fit any pad-printing machine.
