| WHAT
IS HEAT TRANSFER?
Heat transferring is a dry printing process like hot
stamping where a preprinted graphic image is trapped
between a heated plate and the part. Heat and pressure
is applied to the part and the graphic is then permanently
bonded to the part.
The
advantage to heat transfer is that multi-color graphics
can be applied to a part in one pass; therefore the
customer can have the benefit of a multi-colored print
while only having to pay the cost of a single application.
Although this process has many advantages,
it is usually only cost effective in higher volume applications
because of the cost associated with setting up and screening
the transfers.
Mystic has several machines with heat
transfer capability. If this process fits your decorating
requirements then we can fulfill your needs.
