1. Thermal transfer printing is a new method of printing patterns on products made of various materials. It is especially suitable for producing small quantities of various personalized and customized products, as well as printing patterns containing full-color images or photos. The principle is to use a printer to print a digital pattern on special transfer paper with special transfer ink, and then use a special transfer machine to accurately transfer the pattern to the surface of the product under high temperature and high pressure to complete the product printing.
2. Thermal transfer technology can also use a variety of different transfer materials to achieve different printing effects. The most important ones are film transfer and sublimation transfer. The transfer paper for film transfer contains colloid, and the colloid pattern is printed on the surface of the product using high temperature and high pressure. Coolle.com uses high-quality imported transfer paper and ink. The printed gel pattern is very thin, breathable, non-sticky, non-cracking, washable and does not fall off; unlike many domestic transfer papers used in the market, The printed gel pattern is thicker and often has the disadvantages of sticking and cracking. Coolle.com's 100% cotton clothes are printed using film transfer technology. Sublimation transfer is a new generation technology that uses special Sublimation Ink and Sublimation Transfer Paper. The pattern will not produce glue when printed on the product. If it is transferred to clothes, the ink will be directly sublimated into the fibers of the clothes. The fastness is the same as cloth dyeing, and the color is sharp, which is more suitable for colorful patterns.
3. Products that can be heat transferred. Not all products can be printed with heat transfer printing, which involves factors such as the heat resistance, smoothness, etc. of the product. Due to the continuous advancement of technology, products that have been maturely developed using heat transfer printing technology include: clothes, cloth bags, hats, pillows, mugs, tiles, watches, mouse pads, coasters, hanging calendars, medals, Banners,... and hundreds of other products. Coolle.com will use the latest heat transfer and other technologies to continue to develop more personalized products, from head to toe, from wear to use, to satisfy your desire for uniqueness.
4. Textile transfer. Common textile transfer technologies are film transfer and sublimation transfer.
(1) As of 2013, sublimation transfer technology is mainly applicable to clothes whose surface is made of polyester, such as quick-wicking sweatshirts and physical comfort shirts, and white clothes are best (the position of the printed pattern is white, But other parts of the dress can be other colors, such as colorful sleeves). After digital sublimation is used on colored clothes, the fusion of ink and colored fibers will cause the color of the pattern to be different from the original, so it is not recommended.
(2) Film transfer technology is mainly used for clothes with extremely high cotton content. All colors can be film transferred, but dark clothes require the more expensive "transfer paper for dark clothes", which has heavier glue and less stable quality. Kule.com will not launch dark-colored clothing transfer printing for the time being, and will launch it after the technology becomes more mature. Transfer printing of ceramic products Ceramic products use thermal sublimation transfer. At a high temperature of about 200 degrees Celsius, the ink is sublimated onto the product. The color is sharp and the pattern is highly reliable. However, ordinary mugs cannot be transferred directly. They must undergo a special coating process before the pattern can be transferred.
5. A digital printing machine that can print multiple colors, any complex colors, and transition colors at one time on any relatively flat materials such as leather, textile fabrics, plexiglass, metal, plastics, crystals, wood products, coated paper, etc. It does not It requires plate making, color registration and complex printing procedures, which will not cause damage to the material.
