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.
//Feeding systems
For increased production output the ESC-COMCE pad printing machines can be equipped with different feeding systems.
//Upgrade-Kit für 2C/3C Modelle (RR und RRR)
- RR or RRR systems - pneumatic pad shifting unit for installation in 2- or 3-color machines to hold the workpiece in a fixed position
- more cost-effective variant compared to equipment with feeding systems or rotary table with several workpiece holders
- ideal for small runs
- production output 2-color printing: approx. 600 - 700 p/h
- production output 3-color printing: approx. 500 p/h
//Pick & Place unit
- automatic loading and unloading systems for installation on the ESC-COMEC pad printing machines
- individually adapted to customer requirements
- pneumatic or motorized version possible
- prepared for connection to the ESC-COMEC feeding systems
//Round printing device AUR 360°

- applicable for all ESC-COMEC Slide machines
- workpiece holder running on gears, which rotates under the pad
//Position control
- can be used for workpieces that cannot be fixed to a holder or transport system, such as coins or medals
- consisting of camera and motor-driven centering disk for exact alignment of such workpieces where it is difficult to always bring them individually into the same position
- highest printing precision of ± 0.05 mm
- perfect locking of the workpiece by vacuum
- control of the software on the machine’s control panel
//Optical quality control
- camera system for integration into fully automatic pad printing machines or production lines
- identification of non-conforming printed pieces
- ejection is done mechanically or by compressed air
- customized solution upon request
