This invention relates to the field of thin-film
water transfer printing technology, and discloses a
water transfer printing method for substrates that does not require primer spraying. The method includes:
system setup,
system calibration, 3D
volume modeling, 3D volume pattern construction, 3D entity sampling, comparison of 3D entities with 3D volume models,
water transfer film pattern
simulation, water transfer film printing, water transfer, film curing, and
mass production. This substrate-
free water transfer printing method, through an equipment
system and industrial camera, achieves uniform movement and real-
time trajectory acquisition of the substrate, facilitating analysis and comparison of the travel path, selection of the optimal path for
mass production, and optimal uniform speed for
mass production. Through the combination of
software simulation and hardware equipment, it can solve problems in existing water
transfer printing technologies such as cumbersome processes, inaccurate positioning, difficulty in customization, high cost, environmental
pollution, and low efficiency. Furthermore, the use of
solvent-based adhesives enhances the adhesion of the water transfer ink to the substrate, reducing the cost and environmental
pollution associated with pre-
coating the substrate with primer.
