Ever wonder how that cool logo was printed on your baseball bat? Its all the result of a technology known as pad printing.
Pad printing makes use of special equipment that allows manufacturers to decorate various metal parts including bearings, stamped metal panels and of course, aluminum baseball bats. Often called the industrial version of screen printing, pad printing can be performed on bare metal parts or those that have been painted, anodized or powder coated.
There are numerous pad printing companies throughout the United States and Canada. Most offer the option of single-color, multicolor or high volume pad printing . Prices vary and the results depend on quality of the equipment being used.
