PAD PRINTERS AKA PAD PRINTING MACHINES

This is it main page for the pad printer otherwise known as the pad printing machine. If you've ever wondered if it was possible to make your own benchtop machine capable of printing logos and such on pens, mugs and other tradeshow freebies or tchotchkes (cheap show trinkets), we're here to show you how. You'd be surprised at how simple the mechanisms are to achieve this.

This machine was developed (and is still in development) out of a need to be able to produce logos on prototype items we made in a manual or semi-automated fashion.
