As everyone knows, popular companies and manufacturing firms like to distribute their own products thanks to one interesting little thing. The nameplate is an excellent version of the inscription, which briefly displays the necessary information about the object to which it is attached.
Manufacturers of household appliances, cosmetics and other technical products always independently develop a certain logo and create a nameplate to indicate belonging to a particular company.
Many people have heard the word - "nameplate". Unfortunately, not everyone knows what it is and how to use it. Therefore, all information can be found in this article.
Definition
The nameplate is a kind of information plate where the manufacturer places a record related to the marked product. As you know, there are several types of nameplates. For example, it can be a steel plate or a regular sticker with volumetric elements.
Volume sticker
Nameplates with some volumetric elements have a self-adhesive surface that does not need to be processed before mounting on the object. Nameplates of this kind can be either hard or soft, which can be easily bent. Top they are covered with a good layer of polymer that protects from dust, dirt, scratches and more. Coating with a plastic polymer ensures long-term preservation of the original appearance, since any scratches and dents disappear on their own after a short time.
Manufacture
A unique factory nameplate is a thing that is very popular, and it will be very difficult to repeat all the actions that the machine performs during manufacture. But still you can do it yourself this way:
- First you need to purchase a self-adhesive or just a solid base that can be influenced by printers. The image is applied using inkjet or laser printing.
- Then the image is cut out or carved clearly along the contour using lasers or other devices.
- And the final step is resin coating. Here, each person independently chooses for himself the desired hardness, shade, and so on. Most often, polyurethane and epoxy resins are used in this matter.
And the cherished product will be completely ready in a day. Such a nameplate will bring great pleasure. The information plate is also done with your own hands, and you get a pretty good result.
Application
Soft nameplates are used exclusively for sewing products or small additions. They are also often used to decorate souvenirs. Bicycles, skateboards, scooters are also often decorated with soft volume magnets.
Stronger and larger nameplates with engraving are used for official purposes: plates on cabinets, car decoration, key rings and so on.
Benefits
A self-adhesive and originally painted nameplate is a great way not only to indicate belonging to the manufacturer, but simply to decorate any other products. Volumetric pictures with excellent design will help to easily distribute an insufficiently well-known product or simply point to the manufacturer.
Nameplates have a big plus - they adhere very well to any surface. A special substance is added to the material of manufacture, which, when combined with glue, forms a sufficiently strong adhesion not only to a smooth surface, but to any other surface.
Varieties of volumetric stickers used to decorate refrigerators and other things became especially famous. They are also called nameplates and are very popular.
In addition, another significant plus is the resistance of the material to any temperature, liquids of various types, oils, ultraviolet rays and many other adverse effects.
It should also be noted that nameplates are produced for different purposes and, accordingly, of different shapes and in interesting colors. Thus, each person can purchase or make such a thing on order for any occasion.
Light nameplates
Production has already moved really far, so now various factories reproduce and sell interesting things that people like and bring a lot of benefit. A light plate is a great option for a car. Such an extraordinary design solution for decorating a car is not very cheap right now, but nevertheless, they are just like hot cakes for car lovers. Thanks to its presence on the vehicle body, protection against theft will increase by a certain percentage, since such cars are considered conspicuous and respectable. Therefore, when choosing, you should choose the nameplate as bright as possible so that the level of protection is even more and visually looks more pleasant for the owner of the car itself.
A stainless steel nameplate should not be used for such a thing, as the case will scratch and crack from strong pressure. It is best to take soft and elastic options, although this is at the discretion of the driver. For fans of tuning, there never was a border; they can choose completely strange and original accessories for their car and enjoy them.
Create Highlighting
In fact, for the acquisition of a light label, it is not at all necessary to bother too much and search in all online stores, markets and so on. After all, such a wonderful thing can be done independently. For those who want to decorate the logo of their own car, there are a couple of the most popular options:
- Using plexiglass.
- When using a printed circuit board.
For the first option, you will need to remove the casing, then the logo itself. On a sheet of plain paper, you need to clearly circle the logo with a pencil, and then transfer it to Plexiglas 3 mm thick. Now you need to carefully cut it along the contour and drill holes for the legs. Then connect the logo with the glass, insert LEDs along the contour (the wires must be thin). And the last action will be the insertion of the fixing pins and, in fact, the fastening itself to the right place.
The second option will be a little easier and more interesting, but it will take more time. For it, you need to make a logo out of the board (with scissors or gently cut it out), then apply the connection diagram of the diodes there and put on top the already cut out figure from plexiglass.
These simple options will help in a short period of time significantly improve your own car and make it popular among neighbors.
And in addition to car decorations, you can also see luminous nameplates as the names of elite establishments and so on.
