IMD MK/S foil-feeding unit

This state-of-the-art foil-feeding unit for inmold decoration sets a high bar for precision and speed. For further information, see foil-feeding units.

PGF - Stamping of large areas

using the roll-on process Large-sized lettering and oversized logos are becoming

more and more fashionable as design elements, particularly on plastic containers like tool boxes. The new PGF handles this trend perfectly. This machine enables large-size lettering and signets to be stamped using the roll-on process. Vertical stamping imposes limits on the size of the area that can be stamped due to the risk of entrapped air or defects in the stamped image. The new PGF roll-on machine, equipped with its special, engraved stamping wheel, offers the ideal solution for these applications. The PGF can be equipped with a heat transfer foil feed and can therefore process both single-image foils and continuous foils.

3DHS - Three-dimensional hot stamping

The pneumatic 3DHS hot stamping machine is equipped with a special 3D stamping unit that enables parts with mildly 3D geometry to be decorated. This stamping process can provide an economic alternative for uncomplicated plastic parts that

previously needed to be decorated using the inmold process.

SHP-20 - Servo-controlled vertical stamping

The innovative SHP-20 vertical stamping machine is equipped with a servo-driven stamping head. This enables the stamping process to be regulated and monitored largely independently of the tolerances of the stamped part. The required process parameters (stamping force, stamping temperature and stamping time) can be set to precise and reproducible values, and part-specific parameters - once determined - can be recalled at any time. This feature saves machine setup

times and achieves process reliability.

CHS-25 - Roll-on stamping of conical and cylindrical parts

This is a new peripheral roll-on machine for hot stamping conical and cylindrical plastic parts (e.g. mascara bottles or lipstick tubes). This fastrunning stamping machine is characterized by its high output and can be easily adjusted to different degrees of conicity (changes in diameter of the plastic part). Additional features include a space-saving, compact design and a smooth part-transfer system

- an especially important feature in the cosmetics area.
