Direct or offset pad printers - printing small parts, like electronics components marking

Low-cost, single colour pad printers

The Jantech printers are rubber pad printing systems offering manual direct or offset small part marking (eg electronic components). These marking machines are a low-cost version of conventional padprinting equipment, which print single colour using rubber stamps and negligible amounts of paste letterpress inks in various colours.

The Jantech Model 105 with offset printing pad

Simple, reliable operation

The Jantech units operate by using an ink-roller, which spreads a thin layer of paste ink over a type-set (the typeset is made from metal, plastic or polymer). The print (which can be text or a logo) is then transferred directly onto the product - or onto a transfer pad for "offset" printing.

The paste type inks come in a variety of formulations and in a selection of colours

Direct VS Offset printing methods

DIRECT

OFFSET

In this method, the print is transferred directly onto the product. Only flat areas are able to be printed this way.

With offset printing, the print is transferred onto a durable rubber pad first. The product is then pressed or rolled over the print - thus transferring the ink. Both flat and round parts can be marked on this method.

Various accessories and print-units available

Basic Print unit
	The basic print unit can be used with: Ribbed Rubber type-sets Metal type-sets (offset printing only) One-piece photopolymer logo-types (no individual numbering) You can make up your own alpha-numberic number with an alphabet/number set, or simply print the company's logo. Type Brochure
Band Numberer unit
	For faster marking of single-line alpha-numberic codes such as dates, part numbers etc. Can be used for both offset and direct printing.
Serial Numbering unit
	The serial numbering head is used to mark incrementing numbers with a click of a lever. This print unit is used only with the offset printing pads.
Precision Placement Fixture
	The precision placement fixture is used for`hard to reach' surfaces such as depressions or close to obstructions. Simply print onto a small section of offset pad (cut to fit or clear the obstruction) and pull the lever to print the product.
Offset Hand-Stamp
	Use this solution when you need to make a high quality mark an object that is too large or awkward for the capacity of the marking machine. The setup is for a removable block with a suitable size piece of offset printing pad on it. The machine work table is equipped with a positioning jig that enables accurate repeatable indexing of the offset hand stamp. The offset hand stamp is placed into the positioning jig and prepared for printing the same as you would for conventional offset marking work. The offset hand stamp is removed from the machine to make the mark, then returned to the machine for preparation for the next mark..
