The Print Mold Design process
Print Mold Design (PMD) is related to Insert Molding technology and adds value to products.
With special silk-screen printing technology, transparent plastic sheets are printed on one or both sides, color by color.
They are then deformed, punched out and back-injected according to the component geometry. This creates sensual and fascinating surface designs: Deceptively real depths and matte/glossy effects as well as tactile haptics that are second to none.
We can also enhance these surfaces by integrating wafer-thin, capacitive touch sensors from the KURZ subsidiary PolyIC.
Advantages of KURZ PMD:
- Spectacular effects; can be combined with many functions
- Suitable for extreme geometries
- Haptic designs feasible
- Recyclable surface design
- Suitable for recycled materials
