HOW TO PERSONALISE ROUND BADGES?

STEP 1: PRINT THE DESIGN

• Create the design you want to place on the badge
• Prepare a template according to the size and shape of the badge. Remember that the template should provide an additional, outer edge to fold over and attach the design to the back of the badge
• Print your design on paper, with your usual printer. It is recommended to use 100-110 gsm paper sheets. You can also customise it with other materials such as fabric or vinyl

Download the template you print your button badges in eps, psd or pdf format.

STEP 2: TRIM THE DESIGN

• Cut the printed paper on the outermost edge. You may use scissors or a utility knife (cutter). However, it is advisable to use a punch die cutter to cut out several designs at once. It will help you gain precision and speed, achieving a straight, clean, and even cut (see Related Products)

STEP 3: ASSEMBLE THE BADGES

• Prepare the badge-making machine. For this example, we will suppose you are using a manual one. If you own a pneumatic machine, the steps are very similar
• Install the Ø44 mm or Ø58 mm round die mould
• Place the front of the badge on the mould's Part A, with the sharp metal edge facing downwards
• Place the design you previously cut out and the mylar
• Rotate the base until Part A is aligned with the Upper Part
• Hold the machine with one hand and push the lever down with the other one. Apply pressure and pull it back up. The front plate will remain on the Upper Part of the mould
• Place 1 or 2 washers on Part B. These washers come with the mould. The number of washers to use will depend on the type of back plate. It is advisable to test beforehand to determine if it is necessary to use them and if so, how many are required
• Place the back of the badge on Part B, with the sharp metal edge facing up. Try to align the plate with the positioning pin to ensure its correct orientation.
• Rotate the base of the machine until the Upper Part aligns with Part B
• Hold the machine with one hand and push the lever down with the other one. Apply pressure and pull it back up
• Rotate the base of the machine again and remove the personalised badge
