Can the automatic transfer process solve the problem of pattern seams?

With the demand of the market, more and more water cup merchants began to print their own water cups with colorful patterns, and the content and area of the patterns began to change more and more. Some of these businesses use a 360° printing process to make the water glass more individual and artistic. However, with the change of patterns, the finishing of patterns has become a difficult problem for printing. Some brands suffer from technical problems and can only barely accept imperfect results. Is it possible to make the pattern tails neatly connected?

There are many processes to achieve the 360° effect of the pattern. The problem of pattern connection is thermal transfer, water decal and roll printing.

Among them, the water decal is the most special. Due to the shape of the water cup, the patterns printed on the water cup using the water decal process are all handmade. Due to the processing procedures and production technology, the strength and position of each person's control will be deteriorated, so it is difficult to achieve perfect docking of the pattern tail when the water decal process is used in the large mass production and strict production requirements.

Thermal transfer and roll printing can be automated to a certain extent, and the two processes are very similar in printing. If the printing range and curve of the water cup can be controlled by the two processes, especially the heat transfer, the automatic operation can finally realize the perfect connection of the patterns.
