The Difference between Hot Stamping Machine and Heat Sublimation Transfer Machine

For Many business starters in printing industry, Hot stamping Machine and Heat Sublimation Transfer Machine usually confused us. Now I am going to tell the common points and the differences of the two kinds of equipment.


  1. The Common Points of the hot stamping machine and the heat transfer machine

a. The bronzing machine and the heat transfer machine are devices that transfer printing on a product or object that is printed by a certain temperature, pressure, speed and heat source, both of which are processing of a transfer process of the pattern. device. Therefore, in the line, the hot stamping machine and the heat transfer machine are basically attributed to the same type of printing processing equipment;


b. Both bronzing machine and heat transfer machine can use hot stamping paper and various pigment foils to print the workpieces to be processed;


c. The work surface of the hot stamping machine and the heat transfer machine can be used universally. The commonly used worktables mainly include flat type, shuttle type, turntable type and the like. The flat workbench is used on the flat hot stamping machine and the flat heat transfer machine. The shuttle workbench is used on the curved hot stamping machine and the curved heat transfer machine. In order to improve the hot stamping efficiency, the rotary table can also be installed on the flat hot stamping machine;


d. The current mainstream bronzing machine and heat transfer machine on the market are basically computer controlled (generally PLC logic programming control system). The main function of this configurator is to maintain the stability of the equipment operation. The buttons of the control panel are divided into two functions: trial operation and automatic operation. The former is used for tuning and the latter is used for production;

Although the bronzing machine and the heat transfer machine have many of the same, the equipment is similar in appearance, but professional people want to distinguish between the two, there are many aspects that can be identified, such as the following:


a. The difference of the transfer medium, although both can use bronzing paper and various pigment foils, the heat transfer machine has an operable heat transfer film more than the bronzing machine;


b. The bronzing machine is a device that prints bronzing paper on the surface of the article with a certain temperature and pressure. The heat transfer machine is a process equipment that uses a silicone roller to print onto any medium using thermal transfer ink. The hot pressing system of the two has a big difference in price comparison: the hot stamping machine uses a flat metal ironing board, and the ironing board is provided with a heating plate, and the ironing board can move up and down;

c. The operating power is different from the paper feeding system: the upper and lower drive of the hot stamping machine is pushed by the cylinder. The heat transfer machine uses a top and bottom and rotating silicone roller to rotate by radiant heating and oil pressure. During the pressing process, the hot head is pressed down and kept in contact with the ironing material for a while and then lifted up. The delivery of the hot stamping machine usually has a time relay controlled according to time. In addition to the time control, the thermal transfer film is also controlled by the photoelectric switch according to the node mark on the thermal transfer film;


d. Applicable area is different: the applicable area of the hot stamping machine is relatively small; the area of thermal transfer is relatively large;


e. Different bronzing version: bronzing machine can add bronzing plate to burn text and pattern. Heat transfer machine can't make silicone roller with text at present, can't burn text;


f. There are differences in overprinting effect: To achieve overprinting, the bronzing machine must select multiple bronzing machines and bronzing paper of various colors; the graphic of the heat transfer machine is on the film and does not involve overprinting problems. The heat transfer machine needs to control the paper feeding motor through the photoelectric switch to realize the positioning of the graphic and the product on the film;


g. The shape suitability of the product is different: the bronzing machine is applicable to various shapes of products in principle, and the adaptability is stronger than that of the heat transfer machine, but to achieve high quality effect, it is necessary to make a better film; the heat transfer machine is mainly Suitable for flat, cylindrical products and arc surfaces with the lowest point and the highest point.
