DIGITAL METAL® is the perfect digital concept for metallic decoration in print finishing. Our stamping foils with elegant, real metal are now available for digital printing for the first time – no set-up times, no tools, just completely new design options.
Our DIGITAL METAL® foil provides both high gloss and sharp-edged motifs, and is easy to process. Foil transfer is 100 % digital and can be overprinted digitally or conventionally.
The DM-LINER® Toner based system allows a digital transfer of foils onto paper and cardboard stock. The transfer process is upstream of the digital colour printing. The designs to be foiled are first printed with toner or electro-ink; then, the DIGITAL METAL® foil is transferred by the DM-LINER® and the PET carrier is removed.
The DM-LINER® UV-INK system digitally transfers foils onto paper, cardboard and plastic. The transfer process can be up- or downstream of colour printing. The designs to be foiled are first printed with UV-ink, the foil is then transferred to the substrate and hardened with an LED UV. The carrier foil is removed after the transfer procedure. For processing, both the DM-LINER® Toner and UV Ink systems can be supplied in either a sheet-fed or roll to roll configuration.
