What is thermal transfer technology

      There are many different methods and techniques for printing advertising umbrellas, and as technology develops and is created, the aim is to make the colours vibrant and long-lasting. Now more is the use of thermal transfer technology, thermal transfer printing is an emerging printing process, introduced from abroad but more than 10 years time. The process printing method is divided into two major parts: transfer film printing and transfer processing, transfer film printing using dot printing (resolution up to 300dpi), the pattern pre-printed on the surface of the film, the printed pattern is rich in layers, bright colours, varied, small colour difference, good reproducibility, can achieve the effect required by the designer of the pattern, and suitable for mass production.

      Transfer processing through the thermal transfer machine a processing (heating and pressure) will be transferred on the film on the surface of the exquisite design of the product, forming the ink layer and the product surface into one, realistic and beautiful, greatly improving the grade of the product. However, due to the high technical content of the process, many materials need to be imported.

      Heat transfer printing is divided into billion and heat transfer printing (suitable for a large number of a printing method) and digital heat transfer printing (suitable for a small amount, do their own characteristics of the product)
The difference between the two.
Heat transfer production process.
The first step. The possibility of producing printed high-resolution images.
Step 2. Production of a dot gravure electro-engraved plate to the size of the image.
Step 3. Install the gravure plate on the printing machine and print it on PET polyester film, i.e. into a thermal transfer film, which can print thousands of metres of finished pattern in one hour.
Step 4. Install the heat transfer film on the heat transfer stamping machine for printing, easy to operate, the pattern is formed in one go, no need to overlay.
A heat transfer stamping machine can print tens of thousands of products in 8 working hours a day.
It can be used on ABS, PE, PP, EVA, leather, stainless steel, glass, wood, coated metal.
