How Is A Sublimation Printed Wristband Made?

Update time: 2023-11-04 18:02:59

Sublimation printed wristbands are wristbands produced through sublimation printing technology. The sublimation printing technology itself does not cause direct harm to the environment. The inks used in sublimation printing are water-based inks, which are generally more environmentally friendly than traditional solvent inks and do not contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), so no toxic gases are released during the printing process. In addition, sublimation printing technology does not require the use of chemical solvents or other harmful chemicals, thus reducing the negative impact on the environment. Here are the general steps for making sublimation printed wristbands:

The first step is to prepare materials and tools: polyester wristbands, sublimation printing ink, digital printing machine, heat transfer machine, and prepare the design pattern.
1. Design pattern:
- Use computer graphics software to design patterns, text that need to be printed on the wristband. Make sure the pattern is clear and high resolution.
2. Printing pattern:
- Print the designed pattern on special sublimation printing paper through a digital printing machine, and use sublimation printing ink to ensure that the pattern is bright and durable.
3. Prepare the wristband:
- Place the polyester fiber hand strap on the workbench of the heat transfer machine, making sure the surface of the hand strap is flat.
4. Thermal transfer printing:
- Place the printed pattern on the hand strap, making sure the pattern is aligned with the hand strap. Then use a heat transfer machine to transfer the printed pattern to the handband. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, the ink converts into gas and penetrates into the handband fibers to form a lasting pattern.
5. Cooling and fixation:
- Take out the printed wristband and let it cool down naturally. During the cooling process, the pattern sets on the band, making it long-lasting.
6. Check quality:
- Check the printing effect to ensure that the pattern is clear, the colors are bright, and there is no blur or offset.
7. Packaging and Distribution:
-Package the printed wristbands, customize the packaging as needed, and distribute to customers, participants or employees.

The above is a complete production process for making a sublimation printed wristband, from material selection to transportation to the customer. Appropriate measures have been taken to ensure that environmentally friendly inks are used and wastewater and waste are properly disposed of so that no other pollution is produced during the production process. Very environmentally friendly.
