- Screen printing
- Digital printing
ENGRAVING
MECHANICAL ENGRAVING
Mechanical engraving is a very common marking technique for small quantities. This technique consists in digging the material with a milling cutter (steel, copper, ....) in order to engrave your logos, texts, pictograms, ... in hollow or in relief.The advantages:
- indelible and unalterable engraving
- economical for engraving in small quantities
- Possibility of coloring
- Effect of hollow or relief
- Metal
- Plexiglas
- Stainless steel
- Copper
- Brass
CHEMICAL ENGRAVING
Chemical etching generated by acid or alkaline baths allows for the unalterable marking in hollow or relief with a depth of 0.05 to 0.2 mm.The benefits:
- Consistent durability and quality
- Very high accuracy of the plots
- Marking of fixed or variable data or variable data
- Marking without contact with the object
- Marking on fixed objects
- Metal
- Plastic
- Stainless steel
- Steel
- Brass
- Aluminium
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Printed circuit boards
- Etc
ANODIZATION
Anodizing is a marking technique based on the principle of electrolysis (10 to 15µ). After protection by silk-screen printing of the areas to be preserved in relief, the material is chemically attacked by the principle of electrolysis.The advantages:
- offers to the support a resistance to wear, corrosion and heat
- good color rendering
- Aluminum
EMBOSSAGE
Embossing is a marking technique allowing the embossing of texts, logos,... by cold deformation of the material.CUTTING
The cutting allows the cutting of materials of small or large thicknesses without deformation or burr.The advantages:
- Cutting different thicknesses
- No deformation or burr
- Realization of complex shapes possible
- Precision
PRINTED MATERIALS
SERIGRAPHY
Screen printing is a printing technique that could be compared to the principle of stencilling.It consists of creating a negative of a motif on a screen and transferring this motif onto a flat support. The printed pattern is then covered with a protective varnish. This technique is not suitable for very precise prints.
The advantages:
- Quality and colorfastnessin time
- Economical for large quantitiesin large quantities
- Suitable formany media
- Pantone and RAL colors
- Metal
- Plastic
- Wood
- Paper
- Cardboard
- Glass
- Textile
DIGITAL PRINTING
Digital printing is a technique that allows printing on a wide variety of media in photo quality.The advantages:
- Printing for interior or exterior
- Photo quality
- Large format printing
