What is sublimation printing? Sublimation printing is a popular printing method that aims to transfer a design from sublimation paper to a piece of fabric or material by using pressure and heat (between 350-400 degrees). Turning the solid particles of ink into a gaseous state is a simple and cost-effective way to add personalization to products used by companies and home users. The high-quality final product of sublimation printing has made it more and more popular in the past few years. Sublimation printing is a great way to personalize t-shirts, puzzles, and mouse pads. The most important material in sublimation printing is sublimation paper. What is a sublimation transfer paper?

The difference between it and heat transfer paper
What machine does sublimation paper use to achieve printing
Sublimation paper is a printed paper specially designed for high-speed inkjet printing. Sublimation uses special paper, ink and polyester coated articles that react with each other at high temperatures to form patterns. Print the pattern on the sublimation paper, and then transfer the pattern to the T-shirt through the sublimation transfer
paper. The process of printing patterns on sublimation paper is very similar to ordinary printing, except that it requires special ink. This ink will temporarily become gaseous when heated and deposited on the t-shirt. In short, transfer paper temporarily saves the pattern you want, and can simply transfer the pattern to the final goal. It's not hard to understand.
If you know the working principle of thermal transfer paper, you will be surprised to find that the working principles of the two are so similar. But they are not the same thing. Sublimation paper will eventually only transfer the ink to the finished product. But the layer of polymer that comes with the heat transfer paper will be transferred to the finished product together. This layer of polymer makes the heat transfer paper more versatile and will bring a special texture to the printing. But this also means that the cost of thermal transfer paper is even higher.
A hot press must be used in sublimation printing technology. The hot press can generate a high temperature and provide the necessary pressure. Put the printing paper and fabric between the splints of the heat press, set the temperature and time, and then the heat press can start to work. Professional sublimation printers and some heat presses can maximize his effect. There are some sublimation printers for home use, but their effects are not as good as professional printers.
Now you understand what a sublimation paper is and what you can do with it. Combined with an advanced Rotary Heat Press , he can make great artwork for you. This is a worthy investment project, if you have a lot of design ideas, you might as well consider him.
The heat press is a machine that produces plywood and other multi-layer boards. It has a platform that can move up and down. The area is equivalent to the area of the product. The inside of the platform is heated by a high-temperature oil temperature machine. So what are the benefits of using a heat press machine? The following is a detailed introduction.
Here is the content list:
l Energy saving
l High security
l Increase productivity
l Good printing effect
l Easy to replace
In the current situation of vigorously advocating energy conservation and environmental protection, the renovation of the boiler is carried out. The steam heating and boiler heating methods used in the heater of the wood board heat press are gradually eliminated. Instead, most board factories choose heat-conducting oil electric heating boilers, using high-temperature heat-resistant heat-conducting oil as the carrier, and forcibly closing the liquid phase circulation through electric heating and high-temperature oil pumps to achieve the function of heating equipment. The high-temperature oil temperature machine has high thermal efficiency and more savings energy. In the heat-conducting oil electric heating boiler, the heat-conducting oil is circulated for heating, which will not cause unnecessary heat loss. The thermal efficiency of the high-temperature oil temperature machine can reach 90%, which saves energy.
The heat press machine has high safety and uniform temperature. Since the temperature of the steam is determined by the pressure, when there is a difference in position, there will be a difference in pressure and a temperature difference. The steam-heated plywood hot press is prone to temperature differences and uneven heating, which affects the quality. The heat transfer oil with good heat transfer performance used in the heat press machine has a uniform and stable temperature and no temperature difference.
The heat press can improve production efficiency and reduce enterprise costs. Compared with ordinary boilers, the heating operation of the hot press high-temperature oil temperature machine is simpler, and the automatic temperature control can heat the press in advance to stabilize the temperature of the press. Under the current market economy situation, the heat press industry is actively trying to reduce production costs and improve product quality. The use of heat-conducting oil electric heating boilers is an effective way.
The transfer effect of the heat press is as good as the flat transfer machine. Thermal transfer is on rolls and slices, and pure cotton transfers at warm temperatures.
Automatic Nomex roller blanket alignment, this heat transfer machine is small in size and affordable. The blanket is made of American DuPont material with a thickness of 10 mm, which has a good transfer effect and a long service life.
You can also see that the cylinder printing machine has many different designs and colors for you to choose from in actual use. Because the roller in this equipment can be replaced directly, people only need to choose the color they want to make the corresponding roller. Then switch, you can easily print out different effects continuously. You can freely switch between different modes, which brings higher practicability and greatly improves work efficiency.

Most sublimation inks are water-based, and water-based sublimation inks can be used in various small-format desktop printers and large-format photo printers. The advantage is that it can be transferred to different media, not just paper. Many different media can be transferred; the disadvantage is that the operating procedures are more troublesome and the price is higher. Next, we talk about the shortcomings of water-based sublimation inks:

Product shortcomings of sublimation ink
The main production areas and advantages of sublimation
Sublimation ink, it is to print the thermal transfer ink on the transfer medium, then heat transfer to the target medium, and heat to fix the color. The thickness of the thermal transfer paper is 45-55 grams, and the cost is reduced by reducing the thickness of the thermal transfer paper and the transfer voltage. Mainly used for heating transfer printing products. sublimation ink can be heated by a heat transfer machine to print patterns and text on other products, so it is one of the indispensable materials in the heat transfer industry.
The production of water-based sublimation ink requires a higher level of nano-dispersion technology and nano-level disperse dye paste. Because disperse dyes are insoluble in water and very difficult to disperse, special dispersing equipment and nano-dispersing technology are needed to produce ultra-fine particle sublimation inks, and few companies in the world have this technology. Water-based dye sublimation inks are widely used in personal desktop inkjet printers and commercial large format photo machines, mainly for digital dye-sublimation transfer printing.
In addition, since dye sublimation ink is a printing consumable, it is very important to choose high-quality and low price dye sublimation ink. For example, a desktop printer only costs more than 300 yuan, and a liter of ink may cost 400 to 800 yuan, and a set of ink may even cost 6 to 7,000 yuan. Therefore, if the choice is not good, the ink you buy seems to be more expensive than the printer.
Dye sublimation inks are mainly produced in the United States and South Korea. American dye sublimation inks and Korean dye sublimation inks have bright colors. The patterns of American dye sublimation inks and Korean dye sublimation inks printed on paper are light and clear and are heated and transferred by a heat transfer machine. After that, the image is clear and the color reproduction is high, which is also the advantage of imported sublimation ink. In addition, due to the high density of transfer ink, it is easy to block the printer nozzle, and imported sublimation ink can avoid this phenomenon.
