Embossing machines
Embossers are perfect for stamping addresses and monograms to personalise crafts, letters and cards, and for authenticating important documents.
They can also be used to protect against forgeries and unauthorised copies of certificates, limited edition prints and other artwork.

Types of impression available
 | Text only
Text is available in Helvetica or Times Roman fonts. Designs including special fonts are treated as simple graphics. |
 | Simple graphic
Image is machine-engraved from black-and-white artwork, with all parts of the image embossed to the same height. Please email artwork at 3-times final size, as a JPEG file. |
 | Contoured designs
These hand-engraved designs allow for greater detail because the image is embossed at varying heights - ideal for armorial bearings and "great seals". Due to the immense pressure required to emboss them, these designs can only be produced on heavy duty embossers. Please email artwork as a JPEG file, or send an example of the embossed image required. |

Heavy duty embossing presses
Single-lever embossers
These machines are for embossing heavy papers or designs which require large
dies.
Dies of up to 75mm (3") diameter or 80mm x 35mm (3.15" x 1.4") are possible. Throat sizes range from 55mm (2.15") up to 150mm (6") from the centre of
the die to the back of the press. If the paper can be curled, the reach can be longer.
The heavy castings comprising the body are of either cast iron or aluminium depending on the duty.
The large machines are often used to produce detailed armorial designs and Vesica Piscis
shaped ecclesiastical seals.
Security can be assured by a stainless steel locking bar
and one or two padlocks as an optional extra, at extra cost.
Pictured are the smallest and largest in the range, but other models are available, depending on the reach, size of die and weight of paper required.
Prices, with text-only dies included, start at £95. Please contact us for further details.

The machine is stylishly finished in black and gold with polished brass fittings.
It is operated by a twin-start, square-cut screw mechanism which generates immense pressure and requires less effort
than lever-operated machines, making it suitable for very thick papers or parchment, or
large volumes. To operate, simply swing the ball lever. It will take large dies of up to
90mm diameter impression size, incorporating large official crests, armorial bearings, coats of arms
or company logos in the design. It is useful for passport embossing, or for use by councils,
universities, or official bodies.
Its low-maintenance design will give many years of
trouble-free service. The machine has a cast-iron body and ball lever with steel working
parts and brass fittings. The distance from the centre of the die to the back of the throat
of the press measures 150mm (6"), so that certificates can be scrolled before embossing
if necessary. Maximum paper weight is 350gsm. The overall weight of the machine is 27kg and its overall dimensions are
150mm(w) x 500mm(d) x 450mm(h). A stainless-steel locking bolt is fitted which can carry up
to two padlocks for security over its use. Embossing from the top, bottom or side is
possible if specified at the time of order. Price on application.
