Definitions
- glass ceramic and ceramic products are on a large scale decorations to achieve desired aesthetic impressions. at certain such products must also have labels, Labels or the like are applied, e.g. the user to give the necessary information immediately.
- the glass ceramic plates for cooktops which in addition to the Brand, e.g. CERAN®, also other operating and status information, as well as each according to customer requirements, especially colored decorations.
- the first typical process uses ceramic paints relevant printing techniques directly on the glass and ceramic products printed on, the color first dried to smudge and then baked, where in the case of the mentioned ceramic plates for hobs the Color penetration typically takes place during the ceramization. In this case, the printing is not carried out on the finished glass ceramic plate, but already on the green body to be ceramized.
- Screen printing process must first be made a screen printing template.
- the sieve is made of fine-mesh textile or wire mesh, which over a print frame is stretched out at the non-image areas with one Cut paper, drawn in bold ink or photographically manufactured template covered.
- the ceramic colors directly onto the glass or ceramic product applied.
- the production of the screen printing stencil in the known The process is very complex and unprofitable for one-off productions. moreover with the help of a squeegee, the printing ink through the open areas of the Screen printing stencil can be applied manually or in screen printing machines.
- the screen printing process is still a wet process in which with printing oil pasted, ceramic color pigments are used as printing ink, so that relatively large and expensive machines with dryers are necessary, and furthermore, in particular with regard to the manufacturing process there are major occupational health and safety and environmental problems.
- the solvents in the pressure oil evaporate relatively easily that complex and expensive occupational safety measures have to be taken, and on the other hand separate filter systems are required.
- several sequential printing processes for the different colors e.g. Cyan, magenta, yellow and black
- the resolution of the applied colored print limited by the grid of the screen printing stencil.
- the printed ceramic or glass products are common regarding the smoothness, the homogeneity and the resolution of the color printing are satisfactory.
- the known method also allows the images to be applied in a simplified manner on the transfer agent.
- the electrophotographic reproducing device e.g. one Laser printer
- the user is advantageously the first time given, even with very small quantities to be made changes without additional effort, such as in the color gradation, the grid, make. Also everyone can use today's computer technology possible graphics and / or changes directly to the transfer medium be transmitted.
- DE 197 18 303 C1 describes a method for producing a a colored picture or decor provided glass pane, on which on a Coloring pad a template of the multicolored picture or decor applied is made using a color scanner, image processing software and a color plotter in the form of an ink jet pen Reproduction device using stoving colors in the Ink jet pen is transferred to the glass pane. The angry Colors are then burned in at an elevated temperature.
- This method has the disadvantage that the ink jet recorder on the Glass substrate applied colors already during application on the hydrophobic glass surface run, so that no sharp images or decorations can be applied.
- the transfer of the toner image applied to the intermediate carrier onto the Glass or ceramic product is made in such a way that by appropriate Heaters once the intermediate support in the contact zone to the glass or Ceramic product heated to a temperature of at least 100 ° C and on the other hand, the glass ceramic product to a temperature of at least Is preheated to 60 ° C.
- the toner is on the intermediate carrier brought into the molten state and the melted toner is then transferred to the glass or ceramic product.
- the toner runs and with it the charge image somewhat, so that the sharpness of the contours also leaves something to be desired in this method.
