Application of Kitronyx's Pressure Distribution Measurement System for Pad Printing.
Purpose
The pad printing process uses a silicone pad to transfer ink onto surfaces with curved or complex shapes.
This method is primarily used for panel controls and turn signal lights in automotive components.
The purpose of implementing Kitronyx's solution is to visualize the pressure distribution data occurring
during the printing pickup and transfer process of the silicone pad, and to obtain corresponding numerical results.
This is expected to enhance printing quality, reduce defect rates, and improve the quality of the final product.
Results
As the stroke increases, higher pressure is applied, causing the pressure to concentrate in the central part of the silicone pad.
Additionally, as the stroke increases, the area where the pressure is concentrated widens,
and the silicone pad becomes more spread out as it is pressed.
The changes in pressing force according to stroke variations are clearly shown in the graphs
generated from the raw data saved with ForceLAB2.
As the stroke increases, it is easy to observe from the graph that the force applied to the sensor also increases.
With Kitronyx's solution, changes in force corresponding to stroke variations can be quantitatively visualized,
which improves quality control and process adjustments.
This allows for rapid identification and response to issues, thereby enhancing production efficiency.
Expected Benefits and Applications
Pressure Distribution Monitoring
By using electronic pressure sensors, pressure distribution can be analyzed and monitored during pad pressing.
This enables efficient analysis of pressure concentration during the printing process.
Print Quality Control and Defect Prevention
Leveraging the measured pressure data helps identify the optimal pressure range for achieving the best print quality and sets criteria for distinguishing between defective and acceptable prints.
This approach stabilizes print quality and helps prevent defects.
Equipment Condition Check and New Pad Optimization Development
Regular measurement of pressure distribution during pad pressing helps identify any equipment anomalies.
Furthermore, using electronic pressure sensors during the development of new pads allows for the proactive prevention of potential issues and ensures optimal print quality.
