WHAT KIND OF INK AND PAPER IS SUITABLE FOR CUP PRESS?
Jun 22, 2022
Within the sublimation printing industry, the Sublimation Mug Press machine, one of the heat press machines, has an excellent reputation and a high utilization rate. It is also among the most crucial pieces of heat transmission machinery. It is common knowledge among those in the heat transfer correlation business that sublimation paper and ink are essential for successful transfers. They are also required by mug press machines to complete the printing process. Would you mind describing the types of ink and paper that will be utilized using the brief introduction above? Let's start by discussing the characteristics of sublimation ink and transfer paper, which are as follows:
The characteristics of the sublimation transfer paper:
1, Sublimation paper has stronger & faster ink absorption power, and good permeability to get a nice transfer result;
2, Under the high temperature & pressure, the surface of the heated sublimation transfer ink thought sublimation paper transfer to the objects, which form a colorful image at last. So, the sublimation products are durable, the image will not fall off, crack and fade.
Sublimation transfer paper, as a product of deep processing of paper, has obvious difference from general paper. In detail, it is the common printing paper with special surface coating processing, which makes it can not only absorb water-based ink but also make drops do not spread to the surrounding, and fully maintain the original color and clarity.
Essential Characteristics of Dye Sublimation Ink
1. Generally not prone to nozzle blockage, ideal for continuous ink systems.
2. Good color reduction with lifelikeness. There would be no dark, heavy, or uncolorable transfer printing compared to other brands of thermal transfer ink, and the quality and effect would be brighter two to five times.
3. It has strong adhesion, resistance to abrasion, and long-lasting waterproof performance.
4. It is difficult to partially color the pattern of the transfer on the object. The mug press machine has to be used with sublimation transfer paper and sublimation ink since the features of sublimation ink and paper mentioned above are not achievable with regular paper and ink.
