What is Dye Sublimation printer?

dye sublimation printer

Common printing methods are inkjet printing and laser printing, but there is also a special printing method: dye sublimation printing, which derives dye sublimation printers. What is going on?

Generally speaking, there are three states of matter: solid, liquid and gaseous. The transformation between these three states is called sublimation. The process in which the solid turns into a gas state is called sublimation. This process requires a lot of heat. The technology of the printer is to apply a layer of dye on the film in advance, which is divided into three different colors: cyan, magenta, and yellow.

The working principle of the sublimation printer is to set solid pigments (called color rolls) of four colors (cyan, magenta, yellow and black, CMYK for short) on a drum, and tens of thousands of them are installed on the drum. Semiconductor heating elements. When the temperature of these heating elements rises to a certain level, they can directly convert solid pigments into gaseous state (the process of solid state becoming gaseous without liquefaction is called sublimation, so this printer is called sublimation Printer), and then spray the gas onto the print medium. Each semiconductor heating element can be adjusted to 256 kinds of temperature, which can adjust the color ratio and intensity, to achieve continuous tone true color photo effect.

Dye sublimation printer has coating function.Dye-sublimation printers are mainly used to print pictures. After the pictures are coated, the overall color feeling will be brighter and brighter. It has the characteristics of anti-oxidation and discoloration, waterproof, anti-fingerprint, and is not easy to fade after long-term storage. In terms of preservation, it is much longer than the pictures produced by inkjet printers.

Here is an introduction to the company’s main dye sublimation printer XY-5196E sublimation printer. This machine uses 3 Epson I3200-A1 nozzles, and the passing speed of 2 can reach 120㎡/h. At the same time, it is also equipped with an advanced intelligent automatic nozzle cleaning and moisturizing device, which can draw ink well and keep the ink flow smooth. The intelligent low-ink alarm can also reduce the cumbersomeness of frequently checking the remaining amount of ink, while reminding to replenish ink in time to ensure the continuity of printing work. In addition, the machine is also equipped with unique two-dimensional intelligent atomization and wave atomization functions, as well as VSDT variable ink drop technology, which can significantly improve printing quality. With the help of a heat transfer machine, the printed image can be applied to many different non-elastic materials, such as polyester, chiffon, silk and banners. Unrestricted by patterns, making it an ideal choice for decoration, clothing and advertising.
