AAE's expertise in pad printing
We have many examples of pad printing units. For instance our customer presented a complex challenge: to print a small top part of a toy with 8 different colors. The colors needed to match exactly as the customer is extremely critical on the appearance. The temperature of the machine is measured to compensate for any machine expansion during the print process and machine operation. This ensures all colors are printed at the exact same location also when the machine is operated for an extended period of time.
