Today I will introduce a nameplate logo specially used on vacuum compressors. It is made of aluminum, and the surface logo and pattern are completed by stamping technology. The surface color of the product is silver and black, the pattern boundary is clear and free of impurities, and it has a very strong visual effect.
This aluminum plate nameplate is also very meticulous in production:
First, according to the customer’s design requirements, choose the appropriate metal material: aluminum plate.
Use cutting equipment such as shearing machines to ensure that the size of the rough material is larger than the plate size (usually more than 3mm), and the plate surface is flat and smooth without pits.
Pretreatment:
According to the characteristics of aluminum and the requirements of the sign, choose polishing, processing, oxidation and other methods to improve the smoothness and stability of the aluminum surface, increase the texture effect, and improve corrosion resistance.
Glue preparation and coating:
To prepare glue, usually mix a certain proportion of glue and water, boil it in boiling water for more than 2 hours to fully dissolve it, and add photosensitizer after cooling.
Evenly apply the prepared glue on the aluminum plate and dry it for use. Pay attention to controlling the thickness and uniformity of the glue layer to avoid bubbles and unevenness.
Exposure and development: Use a vacuum exposure machine for photosensitive exposure, and control the lamp distance and time. After the exposure is completed, place it in warm water for development, and then put it into the color solution for dyeing. Ensure that the image is clear and the color is accurate. Printing: According to the product design type, the printing process is carried out. Printing must ensure the quality of the ink and the accuracy of the printing to avoid problems such as color difference and blur. Gloss preservation treatment: After drying, the sign needs to be coated with gloss preservation paint to enhance its durability and beauty. When applying gloss preservation paint, ensure uniform coverage to avoid missing coating and accumulation. Stamping treatment: For the products after printing, the stamping process is carried out according to the design requirements of the product surface pattern to get the effect that the customer wants. Finally, the aluminum nameplate is quality checked to ensure that there are no scratches, bubbles, uneven colors and other defects on the surface of the nameplate. When making metal nameplates of other materials, there are also the following matters that need to be paid attention to: Raw material selection: Ensure that the quality of the raw materials meets the relevant standards, such as stainless steel should have sufficient corrosion resistance, and the purity of copper should meet certain requirements. Select the appropriate raw materials according to the use scenario, expected life and budget of the sign.
Pre-production preparation:
Fully understand customer needs and ensure that the size, pattern, text, etc. of the sign meet the requirements.
Make fine film to ensure clear lines and no defects.
Select suitable plates and pre-treat them.
Production process control:
Strictly control each process link, such as etching, printing, baking paint, etc.
Regularly maintain and calibrate production equipment to ensure its normal operation.
Quality test:
Evaluate the quality of the sign through appearance inspection, corrosion resistance test, hardness test and other means.
According to the results of quality tests, adjust production processes and parameters in time.
Safe operation:
During the production process, pay attention to the clamping and use of the tool to prevent damage to the tool and workpiece.
Comply with safety operating procedures to ensure the safety of people and equipment.
In summary, the production process of metal nameplates includes multiple steps such as cutting, pre-treatment, glue preparation and coating, plate exposure and development, etching or printing, gloss preservation treatment and post-processing. During the production process, attention should be paid to the selection of raw materials, preparation before production, control of the production process, quality testing, and safe operation.
