1. Transfer printing
First, use the printing method to print the pigment on the paper to make transfer printing paper, and then transfer the color to the fabric through high temperature (heating and pressing on the back of the paper). It is generally used for chemical fiber fabrics. It is characterized by bright colors and fine layers. The pattern is realistic and artistic, but the process is currently only suitable for a few synthetic fibers such as polyester.
2. Discharge printing
(English: wash out colors) (discharge) discharge print (discharge printing) use dyes that are not resistant to discharge agents to dye the ground color, after drying, use a color dye printing paste that contains a discharge agent or at the same time contains a discharge agent. During printing and post-processing, the ground color dye in the printing area is destroyed and decolorized, forming a white pattern on the color ground or a colorful pattern formed by dyeing with the color dye. Also known as white or Seba.
3. Reduction printing
This process takes advantage of the difference in chemical resistance properties of different fibers in the interwoven or blended fabric and applies a burnout agent through a printing method to partially remove one of the fibers in the fabric, leaving the other fibers to form a translucent pattern. It is also called burnout printing or burnout printing.
4. Shrink printing
The printing method is used to locally apply chemicals that can swell or shrink the fibers on the fabric, and through proper treatment, the difference between the expansion or shrinkage of the fibers in the printed part and the fiber in the non-printed part can be obtained, so as to obtain a product with a regular uneven surface pattern. Such as cotton printed seersucker with caustic soda as a bulking agent. Also called bump printing.
5. Flat screen printing
The printing mold is a polyester or nylon screen (pattern) fixed on a square frame and has a hollow pattern. The pattern on the pattern can be penetrated by the color paste, and the non-patterned place is closed with a polymer film. When printing, the pattern is pressed tightly on the fabric, and the color paste is placed on the pattern, which is scraped back and forth with a scraper to make the color paste reach the surface of the fabric through the pattern. Flat-screen printing has low production efficiency but has wide adaptability and flexible application, which is suitable for small batch and multi-variety production.
6. Rotary screen printing
The printing mold is a cylindrical nickel-skin screen with a hollow pattern, which is installed in a certain order above the circulating rubber guide belt and can rotate synchronously with the guide belt. When printing, the color paste is input into the net and stored at the bottom of the net. When the rotary net rotates with the guide belt, the scraper pressed against the bottom of the net and the flower net are relatively scraped, and the color paste reaches the surface of the fabric through the patterns on the net.
Rotary screen printing is a continuous process, high production efficiency, and has the advantages of roller and flat-screen printing, but there are certain limitations in the fineness of the pattern and the richness of the printing color. Remember: rotary screen printing has certain limitations in the choice of color and luster.
7. Pigment printing
(English: pigment print) is also called pigment printing. Because the pigment is a water-insoluble coloring substance and has no affinity for fibers, its coloring must be achieved by coating with a film-forming polymer compound (adhesive) and adhesion to the fiber. . Pigment printing can be used in the processing of any fiber textiles, and it has advantages in the printing of blended and interwoven fabrics. It has a simple process, wide color spectrum, clear flower contour, but it has poor hand feeling and low rubbing fastness.
8. Water slurry printing
The so-called water slurry is a kind of water-based slurry, which is not strong when printed on clothes, and the covering power is not strong. It is only suitable for printing on light-colored fabrics. The price is relatively low. It is a lower-grade printing type.
But it also has an advantage, because it will not affect the original texture of the fabric, so it is more suitable for large-area printing patterns. Features Soft hand feeling and bright color.
9. Glue printing
The appearance of glue and its wide application in a water slurry, because of its very good coverage, so that dark clothes can also be printed with any light color, and it has a certain gloss and three-dimensional effect, making the garment look more high-end So it is quickly popularized, and it is used on almost every printed T.
10. Ink printing
At first glance, the ink is not very different from the glue, but when the glue is printed on smooth fabrics such as windbreakers, the color fastness is generally very poor, and it can be scraped off with a nail. However, the ink can overcome this shortcoming. Therefore, when making windbreakers, they are usually printed with ink, which has bright colors and vivid images.
11. Thick slab slurry
Thick slab paste is based on the glue. It is like glue printed on multiple layers repeatedly. It can achieve a very neat three-dimensional effect. Generally speaking, the process requirements are relatively high, and it is suitable for sports and leisure types. In the style of the style, the patterns generally use numbers, letters, geometric patterns, lines, etc., and the lines should not be too small. Some people have a unique style to print floral patterns, which can be seen on leather materials or thicker fabrics in autumn and winter clothing.
12. Stone mortar
If the glue is neat, then the stone grout is random. Have you ever noticed the footprints you left when you just walked on the muddy road? It is almost the same effect, it is like a block or strip of stone or mud shape~~ It is a relatively new type of printing, and it is mostly seen in casual men's clothing.
13. Soak the slurry
Foaming pulp, as the name suggests, is the foamed pulp, which is also changed from the glue. The prepared pulp is first printed on the cloth, and then processed by a high-temperature machine, the pattern is foamed, with a good three-dimensional effect and a bit soft Cotton, but the three-dimensional effect will gradually disappear and flatten after the clothes are worn and washed many times.
14. Nylon pulp
Nylon pulp, it is said that nylon pulp has better tension. It may be named because it has less elasticity than nylon, and it feels thin and refreshing.
15. Epoxy
Epoxy is a variety that can be more three-dimensional than thick plates. It is generally used to make Epoxy badges and is mostly used for men's clothing. When used on women's clothing, it will be used to create the shape of flowers.
The disadvantage of Epoxy is that it is easy to be broken off with a little force.
16. Gel
The gel is a kind of transparent and flexible printing variety like gel, and the price is relatively more expensive.
17. Planting beads
Bead planting is a highly demanding process, and now only a few factories can do it well, and almost no such process is available in general factories.
Planting beads are also called toothbrush flowers. The finished effect is just like the toothbrush whiskers standing up. It is said that a flower needs to be printed twenty or thirty times before it can be printed well. The height of the finished product can reach about 0.3CM. Its top It is in the shape of a round bead, and other colors can be made on it. It seems to be on top of beads, so it is also called planting beads.
18. Pressing and pressing
Embossing is to first make a pattern mold, and then heat press it on the velvet or special glue to make it punch out the shape of the pattern.
19. Hand-painted
The hand-painted effect is similar to printing, but it is more flexible and free, which can be regarded as the same as painting on clothes.
