PAD PRINTING

An international keyboard supplier found that pad printing Farsi keycaps was the most economical solution for their customer's low volume requirements. In-house graphic and plate making capability is not only more economical, it also allows for quick turn-around on prototype and expedited keycap sets. Manufacturing capacity is supported by four printing presses which include rotary part loading and removal stations as well as a 4-color linear indexing press.

SUBLIMATION PRINTING

A leading supplier of digital video editing keyboards found Signature Plastics' sublimation printing process the right solution for their complex graphic requirements. Using this process, an entire keyboard containing multi-colored graphics can be printed within a single print cycle. Signature Plastics' sublimation printing capabilities include several presses at the molding machines as well as two return loop printing stations complete with vibratory bowl feeders and auto baggers.

PAINTING & ENGRAVING

Back lighted keyboards are becoming more and more popular. Not only do they provide a functional solution in certain environments, they also have a growing aesthetic appeal. A recent customer found our painting and engraving process to be ideal for their 233 key theater audio/video control module. The highly durable flat enamel paint on the tough polycarbonate keycaps ensures years of reliable use.
