Heat transfer is achieved by applying preheated pressure to… Heat transfer film The pattern is transferred onto the workpiece surface. By utilizing Heat transfer film Printing allows for the simultaneous reproduction of offset‑style designs without the need for color registration, enabling vivid, high‑contrast images to be produced on simple equipment. The heat‑transfer process offers significant decorative appeal, substantially enhancing a product’s added value.
Characteristics of transfer-printed products:
(1) Patterns can be formed in a single pass, eliminating the need for color registration.
② The equipment is simple, and the printer is compact.
③ Strong adhesion, high-temperature resistance, and wear resistance.
④ Bright, vivid colors that do not fade.
⑤ Complies with green printing standards and causes no environmental pollution.
Applicable substrate:
The surfaces of plastics such as ABS, PS, PVC, AS, PC, PU, PMMA, PET, PP, and PE, as well as the coated surfaces of materials like metal, glass, and wood.
Advantages of heat transfer technology:
High‑precision pattern printing—patterns are printed on a PET‑coated substrate using a large gravure press with eight or more colors, leveraging finely crafted copper plates to achieve exceptionally accurate print quality.
