Pad Printing Plastic Parts

Pad Printing Plastic Parts

A moulded plastic part often needs branding, instructions or functional markings added before it is finished, and pad printing is one of the most practical ways to apply that directly onto complex or curved surfaces. Andel Plastics offers pad printing for plastic parts produced at our Birmingham facility, allowing components to move straight from injection moulding, on machines from 50 to 200 tonnes, into a finishing process without leaving our site. Because pad printing can transfer detailed graphics onto uneven or three dimensional surfaces that standard printing methods struggle with, it suits a wide range of plastic components across different sectors. Combining moulding and printing on one site avoids the delay and handling risk of shipping unfinished parts elsewhere for decoration. Our in house toolroom and real time monitoring support consistent quality throughout, so printed markings match the same standard as the moulded part itself. For manufacturers who need printed plastic parts finished properly rather than treated as a bolt on extra, this integrated pad printing service is built to deliver exactly that.
