Finishing

 

Printing techniques


 

High quality finishing plays an important role in ensuring the product performs as intended.

In order to meet our customers’ varied marking requirements, we offer several printing techniques.

Tampo printing (or pad printing, tampography)

In tampo printing, the ink is transferred from a special ink plate to the product surface using a pressure pad. Tampo printing produces high-quality multi-colour images, also on curved surfaces. 

Silk screen printing

In silk screen printing, the ink is transferred onto the product surface through a silk screen. Generally this tehchnique is used on product’s with level surface.

laser marking (or Laser engraving)

In laser marking, patterns and markings are ‘burned’ onto the plastic surface by a laser beam. Laser marking is suitable for complex patterns and texts, as well as for continuous numbering or bar code application. 

We also support you with IML, foil stamping and digital printing technologies.

 
 

Joining techniques


 

In order to meet our customers’ diverse requirements, we offer several joining techniques.

Ultrasonic welding

Ultrasonic welding is a versatile technique to join fairly rigid plastics through pressure and vibrational pulses. This technique can be used for joining different plastics grades.

Hot plate welding (or hot plating)

Hot plate welding produces strong, airtight welds into plastic parts through an accurately heated platen.

Gluing

We also offer gluing services.

 
 

Painting and EMI shielding


 

painting

Even though plastic components can be manufactured in any color, painting may be needed for visual or functional reasons. We co-operate closely with our partners in order to offer high-quality painted plastic products to our customers.

We can also support you with other coatings, such as ESD and copper plating.

EMI Shielding

Electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. Shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings.
