STEP 1 Stamping Molding
Molds the metal surface to form the design.

STEP 2 輪郭カット
* Cutting molds are made separately, then cut to the exact outline of the design. * Additional outline cutting molds may be required depending on the complexity of the design. * If a center hole or cut-out is required, an additional cut-through mold must be used.

STEP 3 Attachment
Solder attachment onto the back of each piece.

STEP 4 Plating
Plating now can be processed. The quality of plating varies with the length of time the metal is soaked in the plating liquid.

STEP 5 Polishing
The metal surface is then polished until it is smooth and shiny. This applies to copper material only. Iron can be polished if required, but this will incur a surcharge.

STEP 6 Coloring
* Soft enamel is carefully inserted by hand, one color at a time, using different sized syringes. * Drying. * To prevent defects, a high degree of skill is required in order to keep each color and the correct amount of enamel in the proper area.

STEP 7 Cleaning
Excess color and impurities are then wiped off the metal surfaces.

STEP 8 Baking
The metal piece is baked at approximately 450F for 12 to 15 minutes.

STEP 9 Epoxy Coating
Clear epoxy is then applied to the surface to protect the enamel from color fading and cracking. ( Epoxy coating is optional and provided according to customer’s requirements )

STEP 10 Inspection & パッキング

* Bolder designs are recommended in order to prevent any unsatisfactory coloring caused by lines and figures that are too thin or too small.

* General enamel coloring requires a surrounding metal space to ensure good quality painting results. therefore it is usually necessary to allow for a blank metal rim (0.3mm minimum).

* The standard colors are based on the Pantone Chart.

For budget considerations, the iron material can be used instead of copper, but without polishing.

* Normally, pin manufacturers supply offset printing with a resolution in the range of 125 to 175 lines depending on the complexity of the design. However, at Scorpion, our advanced equipment starts at 175 lines and can provide up to 250 lines of resolution. So, if you need a higher resolution than 175 lines, please let us know and, for a small surcharge, we will provide you with much a clearer and brighter offset pin compared with our competitors’ product! Right now, Scorpion is the only factory that can print offset pins with 250 lines resolution!

* Artwork provided by the customer must be in perfect condition.

* It is necessary to indicate the color required for the surrounding rim. Standard option: metal color and white.

* The colors are based on actual colors of the original artwork or files in C. M. Y. K. color format and a minimum resolution of 400dpi.
