What Is Dye Sublimation Printing, Why Do I Need It And What Can It Do For Your Business?

图片
If you want to print on mugs, license plates and other popular hard surface items, then Dye Sublimation printing is the answer! Dye Sublimation , as a process is really very simple. It is the method of applying an image to specially coated ceramics, metals and polyester cloth, using three main ingredients: sublimation ink, heat and pressure. Sublimation ink is unique in its ability to convert from a solid to a gas without going through a liquid form. (Just like dry ice.) The conversion is initiated by heat and controlled with pressure and time. Hard items such as ceramic, fiber board, metals, etc. requires a special coating to accept the sublimation inks. You must purchase the mugs, tiles, metals, etc. with the coating already on them, it is not something you can coat yourself. We carry a full line of these sublimation blanks. When you apply to 100% polyester (ie: our mouse pads and puzzles) you do not need any coating, it is applied directly to the 100% polyester fabric. You...

Why Sticky Sublimation Paper Dry Slower Than Regular Paper?

图片
Sticky sublimation paper is a kind of sublimation paper, and the main difference between the normal sublimation paper is that it has a sticky coating. The sticky coating can adhere to the textiles very firmly, and it can help the paper and textiles not moving during the sublimation printing. Three kinds of tacky sublimation paper The sticky sublimation paper is mainly applied to stretch materials like Lycra, polyester with spandex、polyester with cotton(<30%). There are many advantages of sticky sublimation paper, such as high transfer rate, good drying time, sharp text and fine lines as there is no movement between paper and fabric. But many people are puzzled one problem that why the sticky/tacky sublimation paper dries slower than regular sublimation transfer paper, even though the sticky paper is quick-dry type as well. This doesn’t mean the sticky paper has quality problem. The coating of the sticky sublimation paper is the main factor that can influence the speed of dry...

Types of sublimation print

图片
Sublimation print can be classified as two types, viz transfer print and direct print. Transfer print The images are initially printed on coated  sublimation paper  as a reverse image of the final design, which is then transferred onto polyester fabrics in a heat press operation. Under high temperature and pressure, the dye turns into a gas and permeates the fabric and then solidifies into its fibers. The fabric is permanently dyed so it can be washed without damaging the quality of image. Direct print The images are directly printed on treated polyester fabrics, which are then heated by heat-fixation devise that fixes the color  on the fabrics. This method eliminates the need for sublimation   transfer paper.  This means no paper cocking  and reduction in defects such as ghosting and various wave or tiger stripes that are common in roll-to-roll transfer printing. This type needs an ink waste pit to collect excess ink and prevents it from staining the rev...

Usage of sublimation paper printing in garment and textile

图片
The desire to create garments and other  artifacts  that reflect the beauty of the world around us and provide for the expression of our artistic nature has been evident from early in human history. The decoration of the body presumably predates the production of clothing. Textile printing is the most versatile and important of the methods used for introducing  color  and design to textile fabrics.Considered analytically, it is a process of bringing together a design idea, one or more colorants, and a textile substrate (usually a fabric), using a technique for applying the colorants with some precision.Several techniques have been used and the colorants available have multiplied, the latest and the most popular is sublimation print. We have learnt that in Chemistry that an element or compound normally has three states viz. solid,  liquid and  gaseous state and conversion from one state to another can happen by applying heat(solid>>liquid>>...

Difference between Laser printers and inkjet printers

图片
Imaging technology :    Laser printer principle is the use of laser scanning imaging technology, the imaging drum to bring static charge to attract toner, while the heating roller to heat the paper to melt the paper inside the thermal toner to complete the printing process; and inkjet printer principle is Through the digital circuit control print head dot matrix jet printing ink to complete the printing process. Sided laser printer can achieve automatic two-sided printing, and inkjet printers need to manually achieve double-sided printing P rinting elements :    Laser printer supplies are mainly toner cartridges, and inkjet printer supplies are print cartridges and nozzles, high-grade inkjet printers and plotters print cartridges and nozzles are separate, and home and general commercial inkjet printers are ink cartridges and nozzles Two in one. Laser printer cartridges can print thousands of paper, and inkjet printer cartridges can only print hundred...

Why the sublimation paper curls in the process of printing ?

图片
Technicists might notice that the Sublimation paper they got from the existing supplier curls regularly in and after the printing process. As the result ,the paper will always scrape the print head and shorten it's life, and might cause the damage of printer in some degree. Sublimation paper crimping can't be solved completely by far honestly, but we do can find the reasons causing this problem and avoid it. 1.The humidity. Under normal conditions,we should keep humidity between 40%-60% . Never too high or too low. 2. Ink load If the ink system allows or requires to load much inks, the paper would have to absorb too much inks, which makes the paper extremely wet, causing the paper curled easily. 3.The width of the paper The width of paper may, in some point, have a connection with the curling of paper after the printing process, but technically speaking, it affects a little in the real operations. 4, The thickness of paper Generally speaking, the...
