TTN Series 100 Automatic Pad Printing Machines

The mounting stand can be installed on most standard tables or desks.

It comes with a base equipped with a height-adjustable table, which can optionally accommodate an XY 100 cross table for precise positioning.

When used with an automatic 2 or 3-color pad printing machine, it is also possible to install an object conveyor on the base table, providing a complete and modular solution for industrial applications.

The high base, with its ergonomic design, allows for working either standing or sitting with the pad printing machine, depending on the operator’s preference.

It includes a height-adjustable product table with a guide rail built directly into the base. This design frees up the necessary space to position your legs comfortably while in a seated position.

The table surface is equipped with slots that allow for the installation of sliding nuts. These facilitate the mounting of various equipment, such as jigs, cross tables, or any other accessories.

Optionally, the standard table can be replaced with an XY table dedicated to the object conveyor, allowing for the precise positioning of electronic shuttles.

The XY table allows for manual positioning of the object to be marked along two axes (X: left-right, Y: front-back), ensuring precise alignment of the marking on the object’s surface.

It is particularly suitable when shapes or dimensions vary by piece or batch.

Recommended for small and medium series, it ensures repeatable positioning, improves productivity, and limits placement errors.

The XY table with rotary axis allows for precise positioning of the part to be marked on two axes (X: left-right translation, Y: front-back translation), complemented by angular adjustment via an integrated knob for fine orientation of the object.

This configuration ensures optimal marking alignment, which is particularly useful in repetitive series where positioning consistency is essential. It is perfectly suited for medium and high production rates.

The upper surface of the table accommodates a fixture, a mold, or any holding system adapted to the geometry of the part, ensuring maximum stability during printing.

This device provides high repeatability, significantly reduces the risk of errors when positioning parts, and contributes to improving productivity.

The XY table with rotary axis ensures precise positioning of the object to be marked on two axes (X: left-right, Y: front-back), while providing additional rotational adjustment thanks to an integrated dial.

This functionality allows the object to be oriented with precision for optimal marking alignment. Ideal for repetitive production, especially when multiple pieces need to be marked in series, it is perfectly suited for medium to high-volume production.

A jig, mold, or any device capable of holding the piece to be marked is attached to the top of this table.

This system improves productivity, ensures high repeatability, and reduces the risk of positioning errors.

The 2-position conveyor is an accessory designed to automate the movement of parts between two successive printing stations.

It improves alignment precision, particularly for multi-color or technical prints requiring perfect repeatability. It also helps reduce manual positioning errors while increasing production speed.

Installation of the conveyor is quick. It is generally positioned on an XY table, facilitating the alignment of color 1 relative to color 2.

Robust, reliable, and compact, the conveyor requires no maintenance.

The 2 to 3 position conveyor is an accessory designed to automate the movement of parts between several fixed positions or between three successive printing stations.

It offers improved alignment precision, which is essential for multi-color or technical printing requiring multiple pad passes with a high level of repeatability. It also helps reduce error risks associated with manual handling, while increasing production rates in semi-automated or automated configurations.

Its installation is quick and modular, without requiring major structural modifications, which facilitates its integration into new or existing production lines.

Compact, robust, and reliable, it adapts perfectly to automated industrial configurations and provides an efficient solution for the precise positioning of parts to be printed across multiple stations.

The XY table for object conveyor enables precise movement along the X and Y axes as well as rotation. Installed under the conveyor, it ensures optimal positioning of the part under the pad, an essential asset for marking complex or multi-zone surfaces.

Specially developed to work with electronic conveyors, it integrates perfectly into a new generation pad printing machine mounted on a high base.

Fully compatible with the bases of TTN 100, TTN 200, and TTN 350 models, this table incorporates fine rotation adjustment for high-precision alignment.

It is also suitable for positioning large-format substrates, thus offering great flexibility of use.

Air assist optimizes the pad printing process by improving ink transfer. Sometimes, the ink picked up by the pad from the plate remains too wet, leading to partial or imperfect printing on the substrate.

The controlled airflow on the pad before application causes slight surface drying of the ink, ensuring a cleaner transfer and better marking definition.

Particularly useful in multi-color printing, this function prevents the pad from smearing or mixing inks from previous passes, thereby ensuring perfect definition and cleanliness of successive colors.

The two-component setting paste for pad printing is used to create custom molds that serve to securely hold the object to be printed during the process.

The two components are mixed in equal parts to form a flexible paste that perfectly contours to the shape of the object. After hardening, it creates a custom-made mold ensuring stable and durable support.

The object can thus be repositioned repeatedly and precisely for each print. Easy to remove and replace, this solution adapts easily to different shapes and production runs.

The drying tunnel is a compact piece of equipment used in pad printing to accelerate ink drying after printing.

It operates with a conveyor belt that passes printed objects through a tunnel heated by infrared. The temperature is controlled to allow for optimal ink drying.

There are models with different dimensions, adapted to various production needs.

Printcolor pad printing inks are specially formulated to fully exploit the potential of pad printing, enabling precise marking of complex shapes and various materials. Offering excellent opacity, high gloss, and durable adhesion, they meet the most stringent technical and aesthetic requirements.

They can also be custom-formulated according to the most common colorimetric standards (RAL, Pantone®, etc.), ensuring a perfect fit for every application.

Available in single-component, two-component solvent-based systems, and universal UV versions, they cover a wide range of industrial applications.

Highly modular, they can be precisely adjusted to processing parameters, specific production requirements, and complex substrates thanks to a wide range of adapted solvents, thinners, and additives, including auxiliaries for Soft-touch surfaces or those with low surface tension.

Pad printing plates are engraved plates that contain the image or text to be printed onto parts. They play an essential role: the ink is deposited into the engraved recess of the plate before being transferred by the pad onto the part.

In operation, the plate is mounted on the pad printing machine. During each cycle, the ink cup ring scrapes and spreads the ink across the plate. The pad then picks up the ink from the recess of the plate to apply it to the part.

The engraving of the plates depends on their type: water or alcohol-washable plates are engraved using an exposure unit (with chemical development), while others are engraved directly via CO₂ laser or fiber laser.

The choice of plate depends on several factors: machine type, production volume, print precision, cost, and desired lifespan.

The UV Mark case is a compact and economical exposure unit, designed for exposing photosensitive plates such as pad printing clichés, Polycolor, and ID-Mark plates.

In the “+” version, it is equipped with an additional lamp allowing for the exposure of Metalphoto.

It is a compact, economical, and easy-to-use solution, ideal for small batches or occasional production runs, and it easily integrates into any type of work environment.

The UV Mark GF unit is a compact exposure unit dedicated to exposing photosensitive plates, specifically pad printing clichés, ID-Mark, and Polycolor plates.

In the “+” version, the unit is equipped with an additional lamp with a different wavelength, allowing for the exposure of Metalphoto plates.

Larger than a standard exposure suitcase, it offers a wider exposure surface, allowing for the processing of several plates simultaneously or larger formats, while remaining easy to integrate into a workspace.

Equipped with a vacuum pump, it ensures optimal contact of the film on the material being exposed.

Easy to use and economical, it is perfect for small batches and occasional production runs, combining speed and efficiency.

Pads for pad printing ensure the transfer of ink from the cliché to the object being printed. The range is available in various shapes (round, rectangular, conical, pointed, etc.) to adapt to flat, curved, or complex object surfaces.

Each geometry is designed to meet specific needs in terms of precision and coverage.

Made of silicone, the pads combine flexibility, resistance, and elasticity. This material allows them to adapt to contours while returning to their original shape after each impression, thus ensuring excellent longevity.
