COST-EFFECTIVE AND FAST PRODUCTION OF INDIVIDUAL ITEMS: Since mid- 2009, we have been offering starter kits for digital anodic printing on aluminium which allow the processing of photo-realistic, multi-coloured signs and industrial plates. Anodic printing is a process of surface fi nishing for specially treated aluminium. The initially open-pored anodised shield layer of the aluminium plate can be printed on directly and is sealed in a hot-water bath at min. 97°C. The temperature in this so called Seal Bath induces the voluminous extension of the printed material and thus the sealing of the pores in the oxide layer. As a result of the sealing process the embedded print is extremely resistant to chemical, mechanical and thermal stress. Even graffi ti can be removed with corresponding detergents without harming the print.

ONLY A FEW STEPS TO PROCESS AN INDUSTRIAL PLATE:

1. create template 2. print 3. printed plate 4. seal 5. anodised plate 6. clean plate
