TPU high frequency heat transfer

Technical Principle

The production process of TPU high frequency heat transfer labels mainly relies on high frequency technology, which is a process that uses high frequency electromagnetic fields to heat and press materials together. In the production process, manufacturers first combine the TPU material (which can be a metallic or fantasy color) with the backing glue, and then they open the mold according to the design pattern. Subsequently, operators place the mold and the substrate (such as clothing or luggage) in a high-frequency machine. The high-frequency electromagnetic field then heats and presses the TPU material onto the substrate to form the required label or pattern.

Production process

Design pattern: Design pattern or text according to demand.
>Printing: Print the designed pattern or text on the TPU film.
>High-frequency heat transfer: Use a high-frequency heat transfer machine to transfer the pattern from the TPU film to fabric or other materials at high temperature.
Curing: Let the TPU pattern fully cure after heating to ensure firmness.
Cutting: Cut into specified shapes and sizes as needed.

Features

Durability: TPU material has excellent wear resistance and weather resistance.
Soft and comfortable: TPU labels are soft and will not irritate the skin.
Waterproof and breathable: TPU has good waterproof performance while allowing a certain degree of breathability.
Washability: Can withstand multiple washings without fading or falling off.
Environmentally friendly and safe: TPU is an environmentally friendly material that is harmless to the human body.
Personalization: Various colors and patterns can be customized as needed.

Applicable scenarios

TPU heat transfer labels are mainly used for the production of brand names, LOGOs, and logos.
>Comparison with silicone heat transfer labels
TPU heat transfer is more suitable for the following styles of applications: complex texture surfaces, complex colors, fantasy colors, gradient colors, strong metallic textures, etc.

Notes

Design considerations: Consider the complexity of the pattern when designing. Overly complex designs may affect the transfer quality and cost.
>How to use: Because TPU material is very soft, you should usually not iron the front side; instead, manufacturers recommend ironing the back of the fabric.
>Maintenance: Although TPU high-frequency heat transfer labels have good washability, it is still recommended to wash and maintain according to the instructions on the label.
