Where is the difference between silicone watch band pad printing and thermal transfer printing!

WithSilicone ProductsThe development of the industry has improved many customized processing of silicone gifts without appearance pattern technology, and appearance processing technology is a necessary condition for customized processing of silicone products. Some products choose mold printing patterns, others choose pad printing processing or even more transfer printing processing. The thermal transfer and water transfer appearance processing processes are widely used in all walks of life, and the silicone industry is no exception. Thermal transfer printing and water transfer printing patterns are similar, but the function is different from the complexity is not the same, their process can be used in different fields, has been popularized to, plastic, hardware, rubber, silicone rubber, PVC, ceramics, solid wood and so on a variety of materials, so for soft silicone rubber products, thermal transfer and water transfer in the end what is the difference between the two?
The thermal transfer film process is a process in which the decorative pattern on the thermal transfer film is transferred to the surface of the decorative building materials to form a high-quality decorative mask through one-time heating of the thermal transfer film. In the thermal transfer process, the application of heat and pressure to make the maintenance layer and the pattern layer from the polyester substrate separate, hot melt adhesive so that the entire decorative layer and the substrate permanent glue.
Water transfer to special chemical treatment of the film, after printing the required color lines, flat on the surface of the water, the application of water pressure, the color lines pattern evenly transferred to the appearance of the product, at this time the coating film is automatically dissolved in water, after cleaning and drying, and then a layer of transparent maintenance coating, then the product has shown a completely different visual effect!
If the same paragraph is selectedSilicone Watch StrapThe difference between the two process transfer it is that:
The thermal transfer printing process is complicated, which requires professional operation technicians to modulate the size of paper and high-resolution pictures to produce dot-type gravure electric engraving plate. The prepared gravure plate is installed on a printing machine and printed on PET polyester film, which can be printed into thermal transfer flower film. Then the thermal transfer flower film is installed on a thermal transfer hot stamping machine for printing operation. The pattern is formed at one time without overcolor, except for silicone gifts, many different material processing methods are the same!
However, the water transfer printing process avoids these defects. It mainly uses the combination of pictures printed by inkjet printers and water to complete the effects of surface printing of solid articles, immature material curved surfaces and coatings, etc. Therefore, the patterns specified by users can be printed on different products to complete any personalized visual effects. It inherits all the advantages of thermal transfer printing in good condition, but there is no thermal transfer of these inherent defects, such as equipment, heating, pressure adsorption and other factors. Personalized water transfer does not require the use of any special equipment to be put into consumption, but the defect lies in its low processing efficiency, high cost, and its effect is not as good as thermal transfer!
For the above two processing technologies, if you don't know how to choose, the silicone product manufacturer recommends that you do large quantities of silicone product transfer, then choose thermal transfer, and if the quantity is small, then use water transfer process. The two differences can be distinguished from efficiency problems, one is mass production, one is a small number of processing, one is low cost, and the other is high cost! A complex processing technology but exquisite pattern, a convenient operation but energy saving and environmental protection. The main thing is to see what products you need to print, as well as patterns and quantities to choose!
