Flatware Forming Holloware Forming HEAT-RELEASE DECALS

The process of heat release decal decoration is well known to many ceramics and glass decorators, but for those unfamiliar, here is a brief synopsis.

Ceramic colours specially selected for the The required number of ware are printed onto a wax-coated colours are successively release paper. Registration and print printed onto the release quality are excellent, because this process paper, including bright is carried out by specialist printers who metals, etch effects- it is use high speed, precision printing even possible now to equipment. This has an extremely produce raised colours for important advantage over printing colours enhanced aesthetic appeal. A directly onto products such as plates, protective coating bottles and cups, because it achieves ("covercoat") is then applied accurate registration of colours even in over the colours. These complex designs and on shaped surfaces. decals are typically printed on large sheets, and then die-cut or guillotined ready for supply to the glass or ceramic decorator. Many decal suppliers have "open stock" designs on the shelf for immediate delivery, as well as printing customer뭩 own designs from original artwork or disc.

Decals printed in this manner thus contain the entire "finished design", ready to be applied to the product in a single hit. Service (Engineers) Ltd specialise in production machinery for applying heat release decals. Our machines use heat to soften the wax coating, and hence allow the image to be lifted from the paper (on a hot silicone pad or roller), and then transferred to the ware. These diagrams show the basic application process:

1. A single decal is 2. The pad presses 3. The pad lifts, positioned below a hot down onto the decal, releasing the image silicone pad softening the wax which now adheres to the pad 4. The item to be 5. The pad presses 6. The pad lifts, decorated is positioned down onto the item, leaving the decorated below the pad conforming precisely item below to the contour of the item

The application cycle is fast, and the product can be handled as soon as the decal has been applied; this is a dry process, and the image is immediately ready for firing, with no further preparation, in a kiln, decorating lehr or tempering plant, where the colours become permanently fused to the surface.
