Printing templates and finishing

Printing templates
An optimal printing result requires optimal printing templates. For the different
finishing technologies we need vectorised print files with a minimum
resolution between 600 and 1.200 dpi – optimal are EPS-files. TIFF
or JPG files with a similar resolution are also suitable.
Provided films can only be used after examination of our in-house graphic
department and also in case of screen printing. For multicolour-, halftoneand
pad printing only in-house films can be used.
Data transmission
We are able to work with the following software versions: MAC: Adobe
Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Quark Xpress, InDesign. Computer: Corel
Draw. For data transmission you could use the uma Cloud or via E-Mail. For
safety reasons and potential inquiries with data transmission we ask for
company information, telephone and order number.
PRINTING TEMPLATES
uma VISUAL film transfer printing (V)
Product images, advertisement motifs, your own
design drafts and entire image portfolios – the new
uma VISUAL finishing method opens up almost endless
individual design choices all around the entire barrel
of plastic writing instruments. Under pressure and the
effect of the heat, the carrier foil transports the print
onto the barrel. The pressed motif covers the barrel
completely (360 degree-print).
uma relief print (RD)
Feel your advertising message. With the relief print
any logo becomes tangible. Additional to normal pad,
silk or digital printing the logo will be covered by a
clear UV lacquer. The additional lacquer gives the logo
a visual 3D effect and a special glance.
Doming (D)
The manufacturing process of a curved, decorative,
three-dimensionally surface coating is called doming.
The coating consists of synthetic resin and usually
has a glassy high transparent visual effect. This effect
intensified the aesthetic impression of the motif. It
can be placed on plastic as well as on metal writing
instruments.
uma Digital printing (HD)
Impress your customers – rapidly, directly and with a
personal touch – digital printing enables your desired
ballpoint pen to be created very simply. Curtains ups
for your ideas and on a gamut of promotional messages:
Brightly coloured logos, colour schemes and gradations,
even in small production runs – virtually no other printing
technique delivers this level of flexibility.
All you need to consider is, the colour shades which
will here be converted into CMYK, may vary slightly from
the exact PMS colours. The printing technology is limited
to plane surfaces and can’t be used on concave and
convex surfaces.
