TAMPO PRINTING

Tampo printing is an indirect process in which ink is transferred to the product using a silicone pad. This technique makes it possible to print on irregular or curved surfaces, making it perfect for plastic enclosures and tuning knobs. The process involves several steps: first, ink is placed in the recesses of a printing plate; then the pad picks up the ink by pressing into the plate; finally, the ink is transferred on to the object.

Advantages of tampo printing:

  • High level of detail – this method is excellent for logos and small text.
  • Flexibility – it is possible to print on a wide variety of surfaces and irregular shapes.
  • Cost-effectiveness for small quantities – compared with screen printing, the tampo method is more cost-effective for smaller production runs.

When should you choose tampo printing?

Tampo printing is often specified when precision and fine detail are essential. A notable application is printing on tuning knobs.
