How many kinds of technology are there in badge making
According to its manufacturing process, the variety of badges is a common method. The most commonly used badge manufacturing processes are baking varnish, enamel, imitation enamel, stamping, printing, etc. Here we mainly introduce the varieties of these badges.
The first kind of badge: Lacquer Badge.
Paint features: gorgeous colors, clear and bright lines, strong texture of metal materials, can choose copper or iron as raw materials, in which the iron paint badge is cheap and good, if you have less budget, choose the most suitable! Paint badge appearance can be coated with a layer of transparent maintenance resin (Epoxy), this process is commonly known as "gutta percha" (note that due to the reason of light refraction, The appearance of the badge will be bright after dropping glue, but the baked paint badge will lose the concave convex feeling after adding resin.
The second kind of badge: imitation Enamel Badge.
The appearance of the imitation enamel badge is flat. (compared with the Enamel Badge, the metal lines on the appearance of the imitation enamel badge are still a little protruding with fingers. )The lines on the surface of the badge can be plated with gold, silver and other metal colors, and various imitation enamel pigments are filled between the metal lines. The manufacturing process of imitation enamel badge is similar to that of Enamel Badge (Cloisonné badge). The difference between imitation enamel badge and real enamel is that the enamel pigment used in the badge is different (one is true enamel pigment, the other is composition enamel pigment, imitation enamel pigment). )The imitation enamel badge is of profound technology. The enamel color is smooth and delicate, giving people a very high-grade and luxurious feeling. It is the first choice for the badge manufacturing technology. If you make a beautiful and advanced badge first, please choose imitation enamel badge or even Enamel Badge.
The third kind of badge: stamping Badge.
Stamping badges generally use copper (red copper, red copper, etc.), zinc alloy, aluminum, iron, etc., also known as metal badges. Because copper is the softest and most suitable for making badges, the lines of copper pressed badges are the clearest, followed by zinc alloy badges. Of course, due to the price of information, the price of corresponding copper pressed badges is also the highest. The appearance of stamping badge can do all kinds of electroplating, including gold plating, nickel plating, copper plating, ancient copper plating, ancient silver plating and so on. The concave part of stamping badge can also be processed into sanding, so as to produce all kinds of exquisite stamping badges.
Four kinds of badges: Printed badges.
Printing badge can be divided into screen printing and flat printing, which is also called glue dropping badge. Because the final process of the badge is to add a layer of transparent maintenance resin (Epoxy) on the surface of the badge, the materials used for printing the badge are mainly stainless steel and bronze. The copper or stainless steel surface of the printed badge is not electroplated, but is generally treated by wire drawing. The primary difference between screen printing badge and flat-panel printing badge is: screen printing badge is mainly aimed at simple graphics and less colors; while flat-panel printing badge is mainly aimed at messy pictures and more colors, especially gradients. Correspondingly, flat-panel printing badge is more sophisticated.
Five kinds of badges: bite badges.
The bite plate badge is usually made of bronze, stainless steel, iron and other materials, with delicate lines. Because of the appearance and a layer of transparent resin (Polly), the hand feels slightly convex, and the color is gorgeous. Compared with other processes, the manufacturing of bite plate badge is simple. After the designed film negative is exposed by sun exposure, the badge draft on the negative is transferred to the copper plate, and then the hollowed out pattern is corroded by chemical agents. Then, through the processes of coloring, plate grinding, polishing, punching, welding needle, electroplating, the manufacturing of a bite plate badge is completed. The thickness of the bite badge is generally 0.8mm.
Six kinds of badges: tinplate badges.
The manufacturing materials of tinplate badge are tinplate. Its process is relatively simple. The appearance is wrapped in paper and printed pictures are provided by customers. The price of the badge is cheap and the manufacturing is relatively simple. It is suitable for student team or general team badge and general enterprise publicity.
