Flatbed hot stamping machines operate in a stamping motion, where the foil is pressed onto the substrate using a heated die. The process involves the following steps:
Process: The substrate is placed on a flat surface (the “flatbed”), and the holographic foil is positioned between the substrate and the heated die. The die is then pressed down with controlled pressure and heat, transferring the foil onto the substrate.
Applications: Flatbed machines are ideal for small to medium production runs, thick or rigid materials, and detailed designs. They are commonly used for packaging, labels, book covers, and security documents.
Advantages:
High precision and detail due to the flat pressing motion.
Suitable for uneven or irregularly shaped substrates.
Easy to set up and adjust for different designs.Limitations :
Slower production speed compared to rotary machines.
Not ideal for high-volume production.
Rotary hot stamping machines use a rotary motion to transfer the foil onto the substrate. The process involves a rotating cylinder and a continuous feed of the substrate and foil.
Process: The substrate and foil pass between a heated cylinder (with the engraved design) and a counter-pressure roller. As the cylinder rotates, the foil is transferred onto the substrate in a continuous motion.
Applications: Rotary machines are ideal for high-speed, high-volume production, such as roll-to-roll printing, flexible packaging, labels, and thin films.
Advantages:
Faster production speeds, making it cost-effective for large runs.
Consistent quality and even pressure distribution.
Suitable for thin and flexible materials.Limitations :
Less suitable for thick or rigid materials.
Higher initial setup cost and complexity.
Both flatbed and rotary hot stamping machines can effectively transfer holographic hot stamping foils, but the choice depends on the specific requirements of the project, such as production volume, material type, and design complexity. Flatbed machines excel in precision and versatility for smaller runs, while rotary machines dominate in speed and efficiency for large-scale production.
