OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT FOR PAD PRINTING

ESC-COMEC pad printing machines can be equipped with a wide range of optional systems to meet individual printing requirements or to increase production capacity.


//Automatic pad cleaning

Automatic system for pad cleaning - all ESC-COMEC pad printing machines can be equipped with this device.

  • cleaning cycle and number of belt rotations programmable via control panel
  • with adhesive tape
  • motorized rotation
  • manual or automatic start
  • installation either under the cliché holder group or for tilting directly above the printing plates




//Hot air devices

Hot air is used in the pad printing process whenever the ink must be dried during the printing process in order to achieve a perfect removal of the printing pad, e.g. when the machine is in a cold working environment or several colors must be printed on top of each other.
