It’s true — there are machines with a lower starting price.
The difference is that most of these machines are made by generic graphic equipment manufacturers who adapted their designs to print on balloons.

Aracelis was created by those who lived the balloon industry from the inside.

A real example:
In the 2-color rotary machine, many models use 8 balloon stations.
Aracelis uses 12 stations, because in continuous production 8 do not allow enough time for the ink to dry properly, which leads to smudges, waste, and instability.

Furthermore:

• Up to 1,500 balloons per hour with real drying
  
  
• Industrial automation with global components
  
  
• Engineering designed by those who produce
  
  
• Lowest cost per balloon over time
  
  

Aracelis does not focus on catalog price, but on industrial return on investment.

Yes. And that changes everything.

Latex balloons behave completely differently from paper, plastic, fabric, or any other stable material.
It expands, deforms, and requires:

• Stable printing
  
  
• Specific registration
  
  
• Proper ink transfer
  
  
• Drying time between colors
  
  

Our machines were designed around balloon behavior evaluated through process experience, not adapted afterward.

Aracelis machines are custom-made to order.

This ensures that:

• The equipment is adjusted to your type of balloon
  
  
• To your production volume
  
  
• And to your business model
  
  

We don't sell off-the-shelf machines.
We deliver production platforms configured for your reality.

Typically, the customer gets in touch via:

• E-mail
  
  
• WhatsApp
  
  
• Video meeting
  
  
• Or an in-person visit to our company
  
  

When there is a language barrier, we use a translator or interpreter.

After defining the model:

• We formalize the proposal and contract
  
  
• The customer makes an initial payment to start manufacturing
  
  
• Production is monitored and documented
  
  

When the machine is ready:

• The customer can visit to see the equipment
  
  
• Or follow along remotely
  
  

After approval:

• Final payment is made
  
  
• The machine is packed
  
  

And it becomes available for pickup and shipping with all documentation

Yes.

You can visit our company and see how we work:

• Projects
  
  
• Production
  
  
• Assembly
  
  

For industrial security reasons, taking photos and filming is not allowed; we request company identification and genuine interest (subject to approval).

During the visit, we may be producing a different model; this is normal in an active factory.

If it depended only on us, yes.
But that depends on each client's policy.

Many industries work with:

• Licensed brands (Disney, Marvel, etc.)
  
  
• Confidentiality agreements
  
  
• Security rules
  
  

We fully respect these limitations.

Aracelis machines are manufactured following CE requirement criteria.

Since the equipment is made to order:

• We work with certification companies
  
  
• The inspection report and CE issuance process are carried out during construction
  
  
• The documentation is delivered before final payment and machine shipment
  
  

When a model already has a CE history, only customized versions need to undergo the process again.

The lead time depends on two factors:

• Size and complexity of the machine
  
  
• Production queue at the time of the order
  
  

This is clearly stated during the negotiation.

In most cases, yes.

When there is a real need, such as:

• Specific type of balloon
  
  
• Type of ink and drying time
  
  
• Power supply
  
  
• Need for specific technology
  
  

When customization involves changes in engineering, structure, automation, or process, it may incur additional costs, which are always evaluated, explained, and approved with the client before development begins.

It all starts with your needs:

• A new type of balloon
  
  
• Higher productivity
  
  
• A different process
  
  

You explain the objective to us.
We evaluate the feasibility based on our practical experience.

If approved:

• We develop the CAD / 3D project
  
  
• We present the concept
  
  
• We send the schedule and costs
  
  
• And we move forward together until final testing
  
  

It is a collaborative process, and at the end, the client receives full training on the new system.

Because it is born from:

• Real experience with balloons
  
  
• Technical design
  
  
• Prototype testing of critical parts
  
  

Furthermore, many of our main products today started as custom projects.

Yes — practically all of them on our website started as a custom project.

Machines such as:

• 5-Side Rotary
  
  
• Automatic feeder
  
  
• SuperPrint
  
  

They started as on-demand projects and became products.

The photos and videos are of real prototypes in operation.

No. And that is intentional.

Before being machine manufacturers, we have been specialists in balloon printing for over 20 years.

To build a truly efficient machine, one must master:

• The material and its variables
  
  
• The process and its techniques
  
  
• The ink, including viscosity, fluidity, coverage, and drying
  
  
• Product behavior
  
  

We prefer to make balloons at a level of excellence, rather than generic machines for everything.

Yes — and this question is much more common than it seems.

Many companies that today produce at scale started exactly like this: with interest, but without practical experience in the sector.

Aracelis does not just deliver a machine.
Upon acquiring equipment, you receive complete technical training, covering operation, the printing process, adjustments, best practices, and the fundamentals of working with balloons.

Additionally, we offer specialized technical consulting, which can help you:

• Structure a personalization company from scratch
  
  
• Create a printing area within an existing industry
  
  
• Develop themed products or promotional lines
  
  

Our experience comes from over 20 years of working directly with balloon printing, at both artisanal and industrial levels. This allows us to guide you not only on the machine, but on the business, the process, and the technical decisions that make an operation truly work.

You don't enter this market alone — you enter with an already established technical and industrial foundation.

Yes.

The process works like this:

1. You describe the problem
   
   
2. You send photos and videos
   
   
3. We perform the technical diagnosis
   
   

After that:

• If it can be resolved remotely, we offer paid technical support
  
  

If it requires on-site factory presence, we provide a quote for the service and expenses
