Hot Foil Stamping

Hot Foil Stamping
Hot foil stamping mainly involves the transfer of foil by means of a heated stamping die; it can be regarded as a form of letterpress printing. The basic differences between hot foil stamping and letterpress are the use of stamping foil instead of viscous ink as printing medium and the indirect heating of the printing form. Due to the combined effect of temperature and pressure, a layer of foil is released from the carrier at the points where the stamping die has raised areas and then transferred to the substrate, in which it is permanently and indelibly embedded. Hot foil stamping tends to be used e.g.to print text and motifs on a passport cover (e.g. gold stamping,silver stamping). Hot foil stamping is also used for the application of holograms and kinegrams®, etc.

Hello all visitor, thanks for visit to our blog. As you know, there are no update since last three year and we don't have any topic to discuss in this world. All has been done. You can find anything you need to know about technique, modified method and tools to make your own company who run in printing business. And because of that, this is will be the last post for this year. If you have any question, you can contact us and maybe your question give us more idea to post something in the future. Thanks once again, and have a nice day.

Anti Scan / Anti Copy Pattern

Anti Scan / Anti Copy Pattern Printed security features integrated in the background printing to protect against simulation through copying. The printed images and patterns contain embedded (hidden) information that is invisible to the naked eye under normal inspection conditions but becomes visible or legible, or causes flaws (mistakes) to appear after copying or reproduction with a scanner. Example: Orientation- and angle-modulated fine-line structures (SAM = Screen Angle Modulation) Source : Click Here

Lenticular Printing and Lenticular 3D

Lenticular 3D means pertaining to lenses, as a lenticule is actually a kind of lens that allows a range of images to be seen by the naked eye at one time. A Lenticular 3D lens is made up of two separate components. The first is a printed image, or a series of printed images. The second is the lens, which feels like a kind of grooved Plexiglas. By looking at the image through the lens, we are able to see more than one image at a time. The contour of the lens allows the eye to concentrate on different aspects of the picture. The image is printed in strips, rather than a whole image in one piece, which allows the 3D effect to emerge. What is Lenticular 3D? Few people are familiar with the term. Lenticular 3Ds offer a great way to bring images to life. It is a cutting edge technology that is giving companies new ways to promote themselves and their products. Using lenticular 3D technologies a whole range of 3D graphic effects can be applied to printed images. While 3D graphics were once a
