Digital printing adds colour to nameplates and panels
Examples of digitally printed aluminium nameplates and control panels produced using GSM Graphic Arts’ specialist Print into Metal label technology, can be seen this year’s Northern Manufacturing & Electronics Show. The process enables multi-coloured images to be printed into the pre-anodised surface of the aluminium, which is then sealed to provide a hard wearing and solvent-resistant finish. As the inks are digitally printed, the company is able to reproduce photographic quality images and detail, such as sequential numbering and barcodes, as well as multi-colour control panels and fascias. The digital printing provides a durable finish that has been tested for a minimum of five years’ UV durability and is suitable for both exterior and interior applications.
Other bespoke labelling processes offered range from roll form vinyl labels to screen printed polycarbonate and polyester graphic overlays, etched stainless steel nameplates to metal enclosures, resin domed logo badges to 3D embossed aluminium logos. The company provides a one-stop service with experience gained from 40 years in UK manufacturing.
