If you are doing boxes of business cards then you may want to out source
them.

I will usually send out several boxes at a time once they come back from the
print shop.

 

I can recommend at least these two they do a great job with clean crisp
braille:

The current cost of a new APH Impressor is $120.

If you wish to have your agency's change of address put into a new plate, it
will cost you $45.00

Impressor Revised: 1-03380-01 -- $45.00

WE had one of those APH presses, and it worked well provided you used a good
deal of force when embossing. It's a bit like using a manual paper punch.
It's not for the faint of heart.

Since my agency changed its name, we can't use it anymore. 

One big advantage, you don't need to know Braille in order to use the press.

Good point. I did not realize it was only 100 cards. There are companies who
will Braille small numbers of business cards. National Braille Press in
Boston comes to mind and Braille Institute California also Braille's
business cards. 

 

The APH makes a small press that can emboss cards individually I think the
cost of the press is about $100 and I hear it works well.

Try an Everest Embosser. It has a sheet feed magazine which holds a large
number of pages of card stock, The Braille is embossed on single sheets on
both sides of the page in one pass.

Hum:

 

your idea is great. I only have one problem these are single sheet card
stock. They would be business card such as your given in a workplace with
the work place information in print.

 

many thanks though

Hi, I use the tractor-fed adhesive clear plastic from American thermoform
Corp.

 

I can get 6 cards per page; three on the left side and 3 on the right.

 

I do the front and the back of the card to allow for more information.  I
get 4 lines per side and I think 13 or 14 chars per line.

 

So far I have formatted the cards in my Braille Lite and then brailled the
sheets on my Blazer.

 

I skip a line after each back side of the card.
