The production process of commemorative medals is an important factor affecting their appearance and quality. Different processes will present different effects and styles. So, what are the production processes of commemorative medals.
The design of commemorative medals should determine the shape, size, pattern, text, color, and required craftsmanship based on factors such as the theme, purpose, material, and specifications of the medal. Design should adhere to aesthetic principles, highlight thematic features, reflect commemorative significance, while also considering practical feasibility and cost control.
The mold for commemorative medals can be carved manually or mechanically, or modern technologies such as computer-aided design and CNC Machining can be used. Precision and meticulousness are required for mold making, ensuring that the height of the mold is consistent with the design pattern and avoiding deviations or defects.
Stamping is the process of punching metal materials into desired shapes and sizes through the action of punching machines and molds. Before stamping, the metal material should be processed through melting, rolling, cutting, etc. to achieve the appropriate thickness and hardness. During stamping, attention should be paid to controlling pressure and speed to ensure the flatness and smoothness of the billet.
Polishing is the process of surface treatment of stamped blanks, removing impurities such as burrs, oil stains, and oxide layers, and improving the glossiness and smoothness of the blanks. Grinding can be done through mechanical or manual methods, as well as chemical cleaning or electrolytic polishing. When polishing, be careful not to damage the edges and details of the blank cake.
Packaging is the process of protecting and decorating a pre made commemorative medal. Packaging can prevent damage or oxidation of commemorative medals during transportation or storage, while also enhancing their grade and value. Packaging can be done in simple ways such as plastic bags or films, or in exquisite ways such as wooden or leather boxes.
In summary, through these commemorative medal making processes, various styles and effects of commemorative medals can be produced to meet the needs and preferences of different customers.
