How To Customize Logo On Ceramic Cup?

To complete a mug and go through 9 steps, the finished product that appears in front of us always feels something missing. What’s less is the LOGO and pattern we want to print, which is the most distinguishing feature of the other mugs. Now the process is divided into four types for customization: silk screen, roasted flowers, sublimation, engraving.

 

Silk screen:

At present, there are fewer screen printing processes on ceramic materials. The effect of silk screen printing is similar to that of roasted flowers, but there is a slight deficiency. The use of printing for a period of time is easy to fall and the pattern is not completely missing. If it is not a tight schedule or a limited budget, we recommend baking or sublimation printing.

 

Roasted flowers:

 

Common name: decal paper

The popular point is that the flower paper is a very thin film, and the pattern on the film is printed on the film. This is the printing paper process and the premise of the mug baking flower.

 

Paste the finished flower paper on the ceramic mug. It is required that the flower paper should be very flat and completely attached to the top of the mug. There should be no air bubbles in the middle, and the printed part should not have wrinkles. Otherwise, the mug is prone to bursting when the flower is baked at high temperature (that is, the printed part is spent). The situation). Some decals should be hand-applied by the applique workers. This is why the ten identical patterns of the mugs we can see are placed in a row, and the printed patterns are not in a straight line.

 

Place the paper-stuffed mug in the kiln and bake it at high temperature. The key to baking flowers is temperature. The temperature is limited by the color of the paper and the material of the ceramic mug. That is to say, different colors need to be baked at different temperatures in order to make a better product. If the temperature is lower than the temperature required by the color, the printed pattern is not glossy, and the color is not bright. If the temperature is higher than the temperature required by the color, the printed pattern will become pale and white, even if it is not printed. However, the material of the ceramic mug also affects the temperature of the roasted flower, because the temperature of the roasted flower is just enough to melt the glaze on the ceramic mug. At this time, the ceramic toner on the flower paper will penetrate into the glaze, and wait until After the product is cooled down, the color and the ceramic mug are integrated, so that the ceramic mug does not fade. If the temperature of the roasted flower is too low, the glaze of the ceramic mug has not yet begun to change and the baking has been completed. Then the printed color is only attached to the surface of the ceramic mug, and if the pattern is wiped with a wet towel, it will fall off.

 

Sublimation Transfer:

Sublimation transfer is to image the portrait, landscape, text and other images by using an inkjet printer equipped with sublimation transfer ink on the inkjet paper for sublimation transfer, and then heated to the thermal transfer device. At about 200 °C, the thermal transfer ink on the sublimation paper is sublimated into the substrate, thereby faithfully transferring the color image on the paper to a material such as textile, porcelain mug, porcelain plate, porcelain plate, metal, etc. A new process.

 

Sculpture:

Laser is the product of high-tech in the 21st century. Laser engraving can also be applied to ceramic engraving. Moreover, modern laser engraving technology adopts numerical control and professional software matching methods. As long as the pattern is designed, the rest will be All are handed over to the laser machine to complete, laser engraving wants to be traditional engraving techniques, laser engraving has the characteristics of fast engraving speed, engraving pattern, suitable for mass production.
