Welcome to Sublimatievoordeel.nl! As a wholesaler of sublimation products and equipment, we offer everything you need to create beautiful, personalized products. In this blog, we will take you through the sublimation process and show you how our equipment from Craft Express and Sawgrass can help you with this.
What is Sublimation?
Sublimation is a process where special ink is converted into a gas without a liquid phase, allowing it to penetrate directly into the material. This creates durable, bright and vibrant prints that will not fade or peel. Sublimation is ideal for personalizing various products such as mugs, t-shirts, and much more.
Sublimation with Mug Ovens from Craft Express
At Sublimatievoordeel.nl you will find various mug ovens from the brand Craft Express, which make the sublimation process simple and efficient. Here is how it works:
Preparation : Start by designing your image on your computer. Use software that is compatible with sublimation, such as Adobe Photoshop or CorelDRAW.
Printing : Print your design on special sublimation paper with a Sawgrass printer. Sawgrass printers are known for their excellent print quality, resulting in sharp and vibrant colors.
Attach : Attach the printed sublimation paper to the mug with heat resistant tape.
Heat : Place the mug in the Craft Express mug oven. Set the correct temperature and time according to the specifications of the oven and the sublimation material.
Sublimation : Leave the mug in the oven until the sublimation process is complete. The ink will become gaseous and bond with the mug's coating.
Cooling : Remove the mug from the oven and let it cool. Carefully remove the sublimation paper and your personalized mug is ready!
Sublimation with Mug Presses from Craft Express
Our Craft Express mug presses are perfect for smaller runs or if you prefer a press over an oven. This is how sublimation works with a mug press:
Printing : Print your design on sublimation paper with your Sawgrass printer.
Attach : Place the printed paper on the mug and attach it with heat-resistant tape.
Pressing : Place the mug in the Craft Express mug press. Set the press to the correct temperature and pressure.
Sublimation : Close the press and start the process. The heat and pressure cause the ink to turn into a gas and soak into the coating of the mug.
Cooling : After the programmed time, open the press and remove the mug. Let it cool down and remove the paper. Your personalized mug is ready to use!
