Unrivalled service life Environmental awareness Classic

Ceramic-cliché
After extensive materials research, TAMPOPRINT has successfully put the “ceramic” cliché into series production. It is now a very popular choice among customers.
The “ceramic” cliché is distinguished by unsurpassed performance, lightweight design, no risk of corrosion and resistance to acid.
Ideal for line motifs.

record®-special-cliché
The “record®special”cliché is another product that was developed in-house at TAMPOPRINT.
Made of band steel and ideally suited for print motifs with extremely fine fonts, lines and grids. In the case of average to high performance requirements,
this represents an affordable alternative to steel
clichés.
Another important feature is its resistance to acid and the complete exclusion of the risk of corrosion.
It is also coated with a photo-layer (light-sensitive coating) available as a "do-it-yourself-cliché" in a
packing unit with 10 pcs..

Magnet-Screen-cliché
The “magnet screen” cliché is a traditional plastic “do-it-yourself” cliché, to be washed out with alcohol. It allows customers to create clichés quickly and easily.
In the case of average or below average performance requirements, it is characterised by high ink coverage, fastness and fine resolution. It is used for both line motifs and in high-quality precision-designed multi-ink grid print motifs. A final advantage of this affordable plastic cliché is a variable ink cell depth.
Together with a magnetic retaining plate and interleaving paper, it can be used in any standard pad printing machine. It goes without saying that the system is designed for fast set-up times

Pioneering plastic cliché band A classic amongst clichés Hightech ceramic cliché cylinders (patented)

cliché band microflex Exclusively available from TAMPOPRINT for vector graphics, specially developed for the new "HYBRID" machine series, which was first presented to the market in 2007.
By integrating laser components, this series of machines enable a cliché ready for immediate use to be produced in the "HYBRID" itself. The ink/doctoring cup does not have to be replaced.

TAMPOPRINT steel clichés
are produced out of high-quality, corrosion-resistant chrome steel (63 Rc hardness).
Our steel cliché has secured itself a high share of the market for a number of years thanks to a special recasting procedure and a high proportion of chrome.
A large number of TAMPOPRINT steel clichés are also produced using laser engraving. An innovative technology that makes it a special product on the market.
Very long service lives are easily reached.

Comments:
"SST" quality with a particularly fine etching base; therefore achieving better ink coverage. Is more prone to corrosion than the steel cliché.

The TAMPOPRINT® “Hightec ceramic cliché cylinders” (aluminium core with ceramic coating) are a world novelty proving once again the market leadership role of TAMPOPRINT®. After a development time of two years, TAMPOPRINT® can offer to its customers an equivalent, low-priced alternative to the exclusive ceramic cliché and to the steel cliché cylinder.

Attention: We point out that we can only guarantee impeccable doctoring properties if the “Cerak doctoring blade” is used.

You decide whether you want your pad printing cliché ready-for-printing or unprocessed.
Before selecting your cliché, you will need to consider:

• Service life needed
• Printed media processing
• Machine series used
  (Rapid, Hermetic, Sealed Ink Cup ...)
• Cliché costs (material/type)
• Material and shape of items being printed
• Print motif
• Scope for in-house production
• Requirements of print image quality

The service life of our pad printing clichés depends on:

• Tampon printing ink type used
• Tampon printing ink shade used
 (silver, gold, metallic)
• Doctor pressure ("open" systems)
• Ink/doctoring cup pressure
  ("hermetic" systems)
• Transfer of seal or lubricant
• Medicinal substances
• Edible inks
• Other coating media available on request
