How is the custom metal medal made?

For the customization of enterprise metal badges, iron, copper, stainless steel, zinc alloy and other materials are generally selected in terms of materials. Now, let's take a look at the characteristics of these materials with our gifts.

1. Iron

Iron is our most common material. It has the characteristics of good strength and relatively cheap price. Therefore, the price of metal badges made of iron is much cheaper, and the surface of the iron badge is electroplated or painted. The later effect is very similar to that of the bronze badge, and it also has a better sense of hierarchy. However, there is a disadvantage in the customization of iron metal badges. If you go by long-term international shipping, it is easy to rust. Therefore, we do not recommend overseas customers to choose iron badges.

2. Copper

Copper (including red copper, red copper, red copper) is the preferred metal material for advanced seals, and among them, red copper is used for the production of pond porcelain seals, and red copper and brass are mainly used for imitation of pond porcelain seals and spray paint Badges of metal materials such as badges are customized. Metal materials such as copper are relatively soft. It is the most used material for the production of metal badges. The produced metal badges have good appearance and high quality. Generally, the thickness is 1.2mm, 1.5mm or 1.8mm. The thickness of the medal is generally 3mm.

3. Stainless steel plate

Stainless steel plate, also known as stainless steel 201, is mainly used for manufacturing packaging printing stamps, also known as crystal glue stamps, and its thickness is generally 0.5 mm and 0.8 mm. The main features of customized stainless steel metal badges are strong anti-corrosion, durable and cost-effective metal materials, and their surface packaging and printing colors are rich, and the interior decoration effect is prominent. It is a very good choice for badge customization.

4. Zinc alloyed silver gold

Several characteristics of zinc alloy material are very suitable for customized metal badges, suitable for the production of three-dimensional badges and two-sided commemorative coins.

A-Good forging properties, able to die-casting messy, thick-walled parts, and the surface of the castings is smooth;

B-Surface can carry out electroplating, spraying, painting and other processing techniques;

C-No iron absorption, no sticking to molds, etc. during aluminum die casting;

D- has very good reflectivity and wear resistance at room temperature;

E-low melting point, melting at 385 degrees, simple aluminum die-casting, etc.

Naturally, metal badges made of zinc alloy materials also have their shortcomings, such as weak corrosion resistance, and their application service life is much worse than that of copper badges.
