CAP 401
AUTOMATED PAD PRINTING PLANT FOR RIVET HEADS
The CAP 401 is a one color, automated pad-printing plant for the colouring and decoration of rivet heads (with logos, short texts or drawings). The plant is also designed to cover the heads of rivets with non-stick coatings that are food-safe (suitable for food contact). It is characterized by an excellent ratio of cost, productivity and flexibility.
With the CAP 401, rivets, from a functional element become e decorative one, contributing in strengthening the product's aesthetic appeal. An opportunity to enhance and differentiate your products even further from the ones of competitors.

The automated plant CAP 401 is composed by a print head for pad printing, equiped with an inking system (ink cup) with transversal stroke and a special conveyor for the transport of rivets. The print head has a pad-support bar on which the pads are installed. An automatic feeding system ensures a continuous flow of rivets to the conveyor, which transports them for the entire duration of the cycle.
Before arriving in the print area, the rivets undergo through an electronic pre-treatment for cleaning that also increases the adhesion of the ink. After the printing, rivets pass through an oven tunnel for the drying of inks.
At the exit from the oven tunnel, the rivets are sent to the automatic unloading device.
The CAP 401 plant allows to make multiple printings on the same rivet, so as to load the color and offer longer durability.

All adjustments are simple and ergonomic; the Pad-printing System CAP 401 was designed to work fully automatically; after the first adjustments for the initial setup of the printing, only two operations are required: to fill up the ink cup and supply the feeding system with rivets.

The CAP 401 is marked "CE", according to the standard 2006/42/CE (D. Lgs. n. 17 of 27 January 2010).
