Dye Sublimation Printers
Many great things can happen when science and art collide. One such thing to happen from this intersection of logic and creativity was dye sublimation. Dye Sublimation Printers is an innovative way of approaching printing that creates stunning images. Originally it was developed for printing on paper and signage, but it has been adapted for fabric printing as well. The name is derived from the way the minute solid particles in the dye are heated to become a gas without passing through the liquid phase, also known as….you guessed it, sublimation!
Dye Sublimation Printers
Sublimation does wonders as far as prints are concerned, but the process can be tricky and you should enlist the services of professional dye sublimation printers. It all starts with your graphic in digital form; the art gets printed from special dye sublimation printers loaded with heat-reactive dyes and sublimation transfer paper. The transfer sheet containing the image gets placed onto the blank garment to be printed and both are put into a sublimation press for a brief time. As we talked about earlier, the dye gets vaporized and can be absorbed by the material below. Once the print is bonded to the fabric, it is permanent and won’t crack or peel even after many washes.
Dye sublimation can be applied in two primary ways: onto pre made garments or as cut and sew manufacturing. Sublimation must be done on a completely flat surface otherwise creases and folds in the material can cause blank spots where the image didn’t transfer. Cut and sew manufacturing is different from sublimating on a pre made garment because the print is applied before the garment is cut out from the fabric and sewn together. Either way works for us here at AMBRO Manufacturing! If you make us your dye sublimation printers, we can guide you to sublimation printing success!
