Artwork & Setup
Artwork review, plate/cliché preparation, and process setup for consistent print alignment.
Pad Printing & Stamping on Plastic Parts
Pad printing is a dry offset printing process that transfers a 2D image onto a 3D object using a silicone pad. It allows fine-line printing on irregular surfaces and is often preferred over screen printing when parts have curves, recesses, or complex shapes.
Typical Marking
Common printing requirements we support for molded plastic components.
- Brand logos and product names
