Stamping and Embossing Equipment

By Chris Mc Loone

Cost is obviously an issue, and longer runs may help justify the cost of embossing tooling. However, the answer is “yes” when asking whether or not stamping/embossing is suitable for shorter runs.

“Through the use of digital processes and a variety of low-cost solid and flexible stamping/embossing tools, the use of foil stamping can be very economical on shorter runs,” says Smith. “Short runs are not only affordable, but the turn time is faster today than in years past, again due to improvements in the tooling and foil in recent years.”
