Digital Heat Trasnfers Hot Stamp

For those interested in making the switch to digital heat transfers, but leery about the capital outlay associated with new equipment, we have good news.

For those manufacturers, ad specialty companies, and product decorators who are interested in making the switch to digital heat transfers, but leery about the capital outlay associated with new equipment, we have some good news for you. Existing hot stamp machines can be converted for use with digital heat transfers.

How the Digital Heat Transfer Process Work

Digital heat transfers are printed and shipped in printed rolls that can be loaded directly into a heat transfer machine at which time the operator sets the specific application parameters for the blank part. Then the substrate is then loaded onto a nesting fixture and then transfer is applied using heat and pressure.

Repeat.

The Benefits of Digital Heat Transfers

More and more manufacturers, ad specialty companies, and product decorators continue to make the switch to digital heat transfers, and for good reason. One of the most popular methods for decorating plastics and the only digital solution for decorating glass, digital heat transfers are a cost-effective, high-quality solution for manufacturers and ad specialty companies looking for aesthetically pleasing, durable solutions, and short runs.

  1. “There are none of the traditional set-up requirements or costs,” explains Matt Regan, CDigital senior vice president.
  2. Digital heat transfers are printed at 1200 dpi using a CMYK process capable of hitting over 10,000,000 colors with fluid gradients.
  3. Digital printing is a fast, dry process. The decorated parts are ready to be packaged almost immediately after application.
  4. Digital heat transfers can be used on a seemingly endless number of substrates, including glass.
  5. Digital heat transfers are even environmentally friendly, helping businesses reduce their carbon footprints.
  6. Digital heat transfers offer affordable short and long runs.
