Self-made stamp: description, manual, reviews

Self-made stamp refers to a new generation of office chancery, allows you to clamp text on a cliche in manual mode and perform a quality impression on a sheet of paper. Due to its multifunctionality and versatility, the self-assembled type of die has found its application in many offices of various companies, which require processing a large amount of documentation.

Design

Self-assembly stamps and seals are produced by many companies, but they have in many ways a similar configuration and operating principle.

The kit is:

1. The body, the shape can be different.
2. Cliché: a series of strips to which symbols are exposed.
3. Character set. The number and composition depend on the model.
4. Tweezers: the tool by which to set the letters / numbers on the cliche.
5. Replaceable soft cushion in which ink is poured.

An important aspect in the choice is the manufacturer, since when working with a large flow of documents, there is a rapid wear of the parts, the life of a particular model is determined by the quality of the materials used in the manufacture.

Features of configurations

The self-made stamp can have a different shape and cliche, the application depends on the kind of processed documentation and the requirements approved by the State Standard.

Rectangular type refers to the most common types of clichés. The round shape is most often used for documents circulating within organizations. Triangular and square - a specialized seal for government agencies.

Cash desks, or character sets for cliches, can be issued in various variations and can be purchased separately in case of replacement or breakage of existing ones.

There are differences in the size of the print, and in the number of lines in the cliche. Stamps are produced with different numbers - lines from two or more, depending on the length of the cliche the size of each line is limited, the number of small and large letters is prescribed separately for each model.

The color of the printed characters is determined by the color of the ink.

It should also be noted that in order to avoid falsification of the corporate impression it is desirable to make it as unique as possible. It is recommended to use symbols to form the contents of one cliche from different sets.

Daters are a variety of seals that allow you to apply only the date value, using numbers and letters.

Principle of operation

Self-assembled stamps and seals have a modern design, which makes it easier to automate the process of typing and imprinting.

The printing body consists of the upper (head) and the lower part (leg), to which the base is fixed, and on which the plate (cliche) is fixed. An obligatory element that facilitates stamping is the spring, which extends the lower and upper part of the seal.

In the non-printing state, the base is pressed against the ink pad. When pressed, the base rotates and descends.

A pad that lubricates the cliche ink is easily redirected regardless of the model, even in cases where the manufacturer does not recommend performing this procedure on its own.
