Embossing sealing is a traditional imprinting technique which still exists in the sealing of various types of paper documents, contracts, certificates, tickets and other materials. The imprint surface of conventional seals is mostly made from copper to achieve great hardness and durability, increasing the cost of seals as copper is an expensive material. As improvements on plastic ingredients are made constantly, some plastic materials have come close to metal in terms of their hardness and flexibility. POM (Polyoxymethylene), a popular building material in recent years, for instance, is a type of hard plastic and is an ideal material for imprint surfaces.
The GCC LaserPro Application Lab of the month is going to create a portable embossing seal with POM. GCC LaserPro laser engravers ensure precise and stable power output, producing neat imprint surfaces that allow compact sealing, making every stamp a perfect one!
