RIBBON TYPES APPLICATIONS FOR HOT FOIL STAMPING
Printing by hot stamping requires the use of an inked ribbon which is struck by a heated stamp, causing the ink to be transferred onto the product.
Advantages:
- Good resistance of the printed message thanks to the quality of the ink and the impression,
- Straightforward printing technique due to the relative lack of technology employed,
- Ability to use different types of consumables: coloured ribbons, holograms, decoration, metallisation etc,
- Simpler technology requiring little maintenance.
Disadvantages:
- The stamp is an engraved item and cannot therefore print variable information,
- The use of a heated press (stamp) can alter the print medium, thereby significantly limiting its use for printing on paper.
Conclusion:
Printing by hot stamping is a simple technology to use and presents few difficulties. However, it does not offer sufficient print flexibility to be more widely used in the field of automatic identification.
The HSF-30 grade is an established grade of pigment foil designed for the reliable coding of filmic packaging and label substrates. This grade has been designed to work on all different types of hot foil coders and printers.
We can supply this grade is any size required.
