Digital decoration goes 3D
A new range of speciality heat presses engineered for two and three-dimensional digital decoration, have been released by Octi-Tech.
The Sublideck Surface Decoration System combines infrared heat and vacuum pressure to mould images onto two and three dimensional substrates and surfaces. It is designed for commercial decoration of complex surfaces such as automotive parts, consumer electronics, sporting gear, household appliances, architectural details, fashion products and mobile phones.
Sublideck 2D lets users decorate simple shaped products, curves and dimensional items. A vacuum press bed, flexible top membrane and infra-red heat create custom edge-effects for items such as switch plates, cell phone covers and ceramic tiles. The Sublideck 3D uses the same combination of vacuum pressure and heat in a larger top membrane to wrap transfer film completely around complex shapes or surfaces.
