As people have higher and higher requirements for the appearance of design, many external factors will be added to the design. Common spot colors, embossing, hollowing, heterosexuality, etc. will all become part of the design. Some designs require fine processing to improve the quality.
For example, post-press processing is an important means to ensure the quality of printed products and achieve added value, especially for packaging and printing products. Many of them use post-press processing technology to greatly improve the quality and add special functions.
Hot stamping, commonly known as "hot stamping", is basically the same concept. It is to make the pattern or text that needs to be hot stamped into a relief plate, and with the help of a certain pressure and temperature, it is Various aluminum foil sheets are printed on the substrate, showing a strong metallic light, giving the product a high-end texture. At the same time, because aluminum foil has excellent physical and chemical properties, it can protect printed matter. Therefore, the hot stamping process is widely used in modern packaging printing.
The hot stamping process mainly includes: preparation before hot stamping → plate mounting → pad → hot stamping process parameter determination → trial hot stamping → sample signing → formal hot stamping, etc.
Hot stamping mainly has two functions: one is surface decoration, which can increase the added value of the product. The combination of hot stamping and other processing methods such as embossing and embossing can better show the strong decorative effect of the product: second, it gives the product higher anti-counterfeiting performance, such as using holographic positioning and hot stamping trademark logos.
The embossed hot stamping process is a hot stamping method that shows a stronger metallic and three-dimensional effect through changes in the hot stamping plate. Through the concave and convex changes of the relief pattern, the graphics and text present a metal relief-like texture, making the hot stamping graphics and text jump out of the plane, bringing a stronger visual impact.
The hot stamping and silver foil we often refer to are both hot stamping, but the colors of the gold foil are different. In the actual application of hot stamping technology, the choice of metal printing plate, gold foil, paper, and hot stamping expression directly affects the final hot stamping effect. Hot stamping is very common and most commonly used among all printing processes. There are many types of hot stamping, including hot gold, colored gold, champagne gold, etc. So today we will teach you how to use PS to create an ordinary hot gold effect.
Three-dimensional hot stamping technology is a composite technology that combines hot stamping technology and concave and convex embossing technology. It uses corrosion or engraving technology to make the hot stamping and embossed graphics and text into a female mold and gravure plate that matches up and down. The positive relief plate reduces the waste caused by processing procedures and overprinting errors, and improves productivity and product quality. Hot stamping and embossing technology is a one-step process. This process completes hot stamping and embossing at the same time. Since three-dimensional hot stamping is a combination of hot stamping and embossing technology, the product effect is a relief-like three-dimensional pattern that cannot be printed on, so it must be printed first and then hot stamped. The process, and due to its high precision and high quality requirements, is not suitable for cold stamping technology, but is more suitable for hot stamping technology.
The use of hot stamping magnifies the attributes of the product and closely matches the farm temperament, allowing consumers to easily capture the main features of the product. It is a high-quality wine label with British characteristics.
The logo stamping on the retro packaging is prominent and profound, and the fonts, colors and paper textures are coordinated, giving people a deep impression of Italian products. It is worth mentioning that its outer packaging is made into a straw-like container according to the shape of the bottle, so when the wine is finished, it becomes a perfect container for a desk lamp. Winemaking is never a one-time success. Only through constant experimentation and learning from experience can we create delicious, soft, elegant and delicate wines.
There are still many techniques for hot stamping. In terms of color expression, it is divided into traditional gold, lapis lazuli, red gold, laser gold, etc. Generally, the cover material suitable for hot stamping needs to be special paper that is not highly reflective and has a certain feel. It is better, so that the contrast between light and dark can make the hot stamping effect better
