DIGITAL PRINT
Now, thanks to ceramic paints, heated during the toughening process, a graphic can become a weatherproof and vandal resistant part of a glass structure.
Now only the idea, camera and graphic creation software is needed. DIGITAL PRINT will realize the work by printing it on the glass.
Due to using the same print method as used in computer printers,
DIGITAL PRINT is extremely fast and does not require any additional work except for processing the graphic file.
As it is not necessary to prepare printing screens, even unique patterns remain cost-effective.
Use of six basic colours guarantees a photo-quality print at 360 dpi resolution.
Thanks to software which allows dividing the overprint graphic into adjacent glass panes, large format photographs covering a glass façade surface can be obtained.
Three steps to get a ready product ? production process.
1. Testing and processing a file to DIGITAL PRINT requirements
2. Overprint
3. Heating and toughening
