Introducing the Domvitus shop's printing process
Pillow cover printing first needs pattern design. According to the different printing equipment, cylinder printing and screen printing respectively, the cylinder engraving and screen plate. Cylinder engraving is the pattern pattern engraved on the copper cylinder, pattern in the cylinder is concave, concave lines are cloth with diagonal lines or dots used to store the printing colour paste, printing, under the action of pressure, printing colour paste transferred to the fabric. Screen plate for flat screen plate and circular screen plate. Plain screen choose polyester or nylon wire, round screen use nickel mesh, the non-pattern part of the mesh closed, leaving the pattern part of the mesh, when printing, the colour paste from the mesh overflow, printed on the pillow cover.
Craftsmanship of Printing
Printed fabrics are artistic products, according to the design of the pattern of the corresponding printing process. Commonly used are direct printing, anti-dyeing printing and pull-dyeing printing. Direct printing is in white or light-coloured fabrics directly printed with dyes or pigments, and then after steaming and other post-treatment to obtain the pattern, the process is short, the most widely used. Anti-dyeing printing is printed on the fabric to prevent the dye from dyeing or colour development of the material, and then dyeing or colour development, so as to obtain the pattern on the dyed fabric. Dye-pulling printing is a printing process in which the dyed fabric is printed with a substance that removes the dyed dyes, and a pattern is obtained on the dyed fabric.
Types of Printing
There are many types of prints, but our DOMVITUS shop uses heat transfer printing. The principle of thermal transfer printing: the printed pattern, which has been pre-treated, is first printed onto a specific transfer paper with thermal transfer ink, and then the pattern is transferred from the transfer paper to the garment fabric through high temperature and high pressure. It is based on the sublimation characteristics of some disperse dyestuffs, choose the disperse dyestuffs that can produce gasification at 150-230°C, mix them with alcohol and other solvents to make "colour ink", and then according to the requirements of different design patterns, make the "colour ink" into printed patterns Then according to the requirements of different design patterns, the "colour ink" is made into printing patterns, which are printed on the transfer paper. Then the transfer paper with the printed pattern is in close contact with the fabric, and under the control of certain temperature, pressure and time, the dye is transferred from the printing paper to the chemical fibre fabrics such as garments, and the dye penetrates into the fibre through the principle of diffusion, so as to achieve the purpose of printing and colouring, and finally complete the whole printing process.
Advantages of Heat Transfer Printing
The printing technology is green, environmentally friendly, low carbon, energy saving, emission reduction, ecological and so on as a whole, is a major breakthrough in textile printing technology. After printing the fabric, soft touch, bright colour, rich layers, good air permeability.
Throughout the whole thermal transfer printing process, there is no need for complicated processes such as washing, colour fixing and steaming as in reactive dye printing, not to mention the need for post-printing shaping, which can save a lot of production time and shorten the delivery period.
The thermal transfer printing process, can be printed on the fabric before printing, the printing paper for pre-inspection, once found to have the flower is not allowed and drag the colour and other defects, can be removed at any time. Therefore, the use of thermal transfer printing process printed clothing and other fabrics, there are few printing defects.
