Contact printing is a versatile and valuable marking solution for many substrates. Industrial-grade equipment from Marvel Marking Products simplifies the process with systems that provide consistently clear and crisp marks. Our systems are engineered to deliver long-lasting use for your branding, goods identification and regulatory compliance needs.
What Are Industrial Contact Printers?
Industrial contact printers are precision marking machines designed to transfer ink or foil through direct physical contact with a product's surface. Unlike non-contact methods, contact printers provide high-contrast, repeatable marks for:
- Offset Printers: Ideal for high-speed production on metal, plastic, and glass.
- Reciprocating Coders: The premier choice for intermittent marking on jars, bottles, and cans.
- Direct Printers: Engineered for continuous web printing on paper, foil, and rubber.
- Hot Print Branders: Used for creating permanent, heat-transferred marks on extruded plastics.
