Pen manufacturing and personalisation is
a complex process involving many manufacturing and printing
techniques.
| Injection
Moulding
Fully Robotic moulding machines avoid the quality defects
normally associated with manual handling whilst at the
same time providing the greates manufactouring efficiency
and associated lower costs.
|
Pad
Printing
The pad printing process is probably the most versatile
of all printing processes due to its ability to print
on three dimensional objects and compounded angles.
Curved clips and images diametrically opposed to the
clip are common applications for this process. Multi-colour
printing is possible |
|
Writing Test
Refills are automatically checked using accelerated
testing techniques. Samples are taken from every batch
manufactured and tested to exhaustion and results logged
to ensure that the standard of writing quality and longevity
is maintained.
|
Laser Engraving
This is the preffered technique for personalising metal
pens as the image becomes a permanent feature of the
product and can not be removed easily. It is equally
suitable for producing multiple images or individual
images or names. |
|
Pen Assembly
There
can be as many as fifteen components in an inexpensive
retractable plastic pen and to avoid high assembly costs,
fully-automatic assembly lines are used for most models.
The assembly process can be very flexible allowing small
quantities of special colour assemblies for that bespoke
corporate look.
|
Digital Printing
A revolutionary new and inexpensive process for printing
images and text on regular plastic pens. The process
is ideal for short runs as the origination costs are
minimal.
Information can be automatically merged from an Excel™
spreadsheet at normal production speeds without the
need for screens, plates or cliches.
|
|
Screen Process Printing
Most regular pen barrels are printed using traditional
screen process printing at rates of up to 3,500 units
per hour. In most cases, close-registration multi-colour
printing is possible. |
