Due to the advantages of high printing precision, no need for plate making, flexible batch, environmental protection, and small footprint, digital printing technology is becoming more and more popular among the public. Nowadays, all kinds of new digital printing machines have appeared one after another, and digital printing technology is booming.
Today, let’s talk about what fields of printing can sublimation printers do.
Fedar printer belongs to the heat transfer printing process.
Firstly look at how it works:
Thermal transfer printing (thermal transfer printing) is a method often used in textile printing. It refers to inputting various digital graphics produced and processed by a computer into a computer, and then printing special ink to a special printing machine through an output printing system (digital printing machine). On the transfer paper, and then transferred to the fabric through the transfer equipment (such as a pressing machine, etc.), using the sublimation characteristics of disperse dyes, the disperse dyes are transferred to polyester and other synthetic fibers under high-temperature conditions and fixed.
The main advantages of thermal transfer digital printing process:
1. This printing technology integrates green, environmental protection, low carbon, energy saving, emission reduction, ecology, etc., and is a major breakthrough in textile printing technology. Post-printed fabric, soft to the touch, bright in color, rich in layers, and good in air permeability.
2. The thermal transfer printing process can pre-inspect the printing paper before the cloth is printed. Once any defects such as inaccurate printing and color dragging are found, they can be removed at any time. Therefore, fabrics such as clothing printed by thermal transfer printing technology rarely have defective printing.
3. The production of digital printing truly realizes the production process of small batches and quick response. One piece can be printed, and the production batch is not subject to any restrictions.
Application field
Not all products can be printed with thermal transfer printing, which involves factors such as heat resistance and smoothness of the product. Due to the continuous advancement of technology, the products that have been maturely developed by using thermal transfer printing technology include:
