Production output of pad printing clichés

The production output corresponds to the service life of a pad printing cliché. This is influenced by a number of factors. How long a cliché can be in use is determined not only by how the cliché is handled, but by the entire system. The TAMPOPRINT pad printing components are adapted to each other and developed in such a way that the individual components have a considerably long service life when used together - compared to competitor products.

Indirect imaging

Clichés, which have a layer that can be hardened by UV light, are imaged using film templates. The unexposed or uncured layer is washed out. The resulting cliché depth depends on the exposure time and the screen film.

Direct imaging

In laser engraving, the cliché coating is removed by the laser. There are two types of laser engraving. In layer-dependent laser engraving, the entire coating is removed. Whereas with parameter-dependent laser engraving (INTAGLIO process), the coating can be removed to different depths.

Thanks to our many years of experience and process expertise, we know how essential it is for all process components to be in perfect harmony in order to achieve ideal print results. That is why we produce our cliché material ourselves. Through constant optimization and further development of the cliché material, we are able to offer a cliché material optimally matched to the pad printing process for every application.

In our cliché studio, we have been working on new cliché materials and developing suitable imaging processes for decades. This now allows us to produce the best cliché for each application. Our years of experience allow us to address the specifics of pad printing and use them for the best result.

In our in-house pre-press department, our experts design finished print images from your artwork and ideas. With your approval, you will receive a print-ready result in the shortest possible time.

Whether you want to image it yourself or have it ready to print, we will be happy to advise you on choosing and ordering your suitable pad printing cliché.
