THERMOCIL
FONTANET
is a pioneer in the production of Transfer Printing machinery. More than 25
years of experience guarantee a highly developed product of excellent quality.
Numerous mills attest to this and give it a superb international reputation.
TRANSFER PRINTING PROCESS
This printing technique consists of a simple color transfer process involving
the sublimation of colourings from paper to heat-resistant synthetic fibers
(Polyester, Poliamides, Acrylics and Elastomers). The transfer printing process
allows high color definition to be attained at a low cost, requiring no after-print
treatment, via a clean, safe and simple process.
The THERMOCIL is the ideal machine for achieving optimum quality printing.
It is manufactured in different versions that allow productions of 180 m/h
up to 900 m/h in widths from 2000 mm up to 3500 mm. Versions with double paper
and fabric rollers and unrollers permit the THERMOCIL to run 24 hours/day
in a continuous form. The easy operational control panel allows speed adjustment,
cylinder temperature and blanket pressure most suitable for each fabric type.
APPLICATIONS
THERMOCIL
model permits the following operations to be carried out:
- Transfer printing with a compact machine.
- Printing on wide fabrics (up to 3200 mm) by means of the synchronised use
of two narrow paper rolls. (DDS).
- Fabric printing with metal foil by means of a pressure cylinder at exit
point.
- Warp printing with special rollers and unrollers.
- Lamination of two fabrics (bonding) by installing three unrolling devices
at entrance. (fabric - film - fabric).
- Finishing by felt calender with compact machine.
SPECIFICATIONS
HEATING
CYLINDER ¿
FONTANET?s technical staff has excelled itself in the design of heating cylinder,
which plays a vital role in the printing process. The implement of a precise
research and development program has resulted in a cylinder that guarantees
temperature uniformity throughout the heating surface up to 250°C. The temperature
is controlled by a Microprocessor with a maximum deviation of ±1°C.
There are two possible Heating systems for the THERMOCIL. Both guarantee
the outmost uniformity in temperature homogenization.
- By means of electrical resistances that heat up the thermal oil inside the
cylinder and turning as one with it. An expansion oil reservoir assures total
oil fill up inside cylinder for temperature uniformity.
- By means of circulating thermal oil which in turn is heated by an external
boiler with different firing fuels.
BLANKET ¡
The pressure required between the paper and fabric in order to achieve good
printing results is obtained with an endless felt capable of resisting temperatures
up to 300°C. Pressure is pneumatically regulated between 50 and 650 gr/cm2
depending on fabric being processed. Automatic centering and guiding of blanket
is accomplished pneumatically on heating cylinder.
