A customer showed me this, and wants to know if I know, and I don't. So, who knows? Fed Ex is not the end user in this case. When he was describing it to me over the phone, it sounded like maybe a high density print. This, looks like a high density print with sauce...

I have no clue what minimums would be though. I would imagine high.

IT's called RF WELDING. very popular 10- 15 years ago.. The plastic is adhered using something called a Rf welding maching using a die and high frequency radio waves. We did a ton of it Harley Davidson AND Old Navy. I Havn't seen it in years and have no idea who even offers it anymore.

RF Welding! That's the phrase I was trying to remember, I remember seeing it in one of the trades years ago. I forwarded it to my customer, but I suspect I'll be doing the ordering and application for him. Thanks again everybody, and have a great New Year. In fact, my first screenprinting job was printing plastic phone book covers with ads on them, and part of the process was sealing the cover to the pockets with an RF die, Thermotron I think was the name. It had a vacuum tube in it about the size of a head, and cost about a grand in 1973 dollars...
