ZS-AB Compact Double-sided Ribbon Sublimation Transfer Machine

Designing Equipment to Meet Actual Production Goals

The ZS-AB Small-Format Sublimation Double-Sided Transfer Printing Machine for Woven Tapes is designed for the continuous printing of narrow-width strip-shaped products such as small fabric pieces, woven tapes, elastic bands, shoelaces, cell phone lanyards, and pet leashes.The machine features a 200mm roller, offering two effective transfer widths of 600mm and 900mm, and is equipped with a positioning worktable,seamless steel cylinders, a Teflon coating, high-quality stainless steel heating elements, pneumatic pressure control, a web feeding mechanism, and DuPont-branded transfer blankets, making it suitable for precise single- or double-sided transfer printing on small-sized strip products.

Equipment Advantages

1. Positioning Table:Facilitates single- or double-sided printing on web-like products, reduces misalignment and pattern-matching deviations, and ensures more precise positioning.
2. Seamless Steel Pipe Rollers:The inner and outer diameters of the rollers are precision-machined; the outer diameter is processed on a precision grinding machine before being coated with Teflon. The rollers provide uniform heating, ensure color-accurate sublimation, and offer excellent wear resistance and non-stick properties.
3. High-Quality Heating Elements:High-quality stainless steel heating elements and heat transfer oil are used to directly heat the oil layer. The system can reach 200°C in approximately 45 minutes, meeting the operating temperature requirements for continuous sublimation printing on small webbing products.
4. Pneumatic Pressing:The pneumatic pressure is adjustable, and the front-mounted silicone roller further enhances contact uniformity, resulting in richer and more consistent transfer results.
5. Web Guiding Device:The printed web is guided through the web guiding device to be straightened; this prevents tangling, facilitates subsequent winding and reeling, and improves continuous production efficiency.
6. DuPont-Material Felt:The machine uses felt made from DuPont materials to improve contact between the material and the rollers, ensuring both high-quality transfers and a long service life.

Core Configuration

• Emergency Stop Switch:The equipment is equipped with an emergency stop control, allowing for rapid shutdown in the event of an abnormality and enhancing operational safety.
• Control Panel:Integrates temperature, operation, and process controls; operation is intuitive, making it easy to adjust production parameters according to the specific web material.
• Imported Brand Motor:Provides stable power for continuous operation, making it suitable for small-batch printing of woven ribbons.
• DuPont-Material Felt:Uniform thickness and stable contact help ensure clear transfer results.
• Handle:Facilitates adjustment of roller spacing and operating position, simplifying material changeovers and daily operations.

Applicable Industries and Applications

This machine is a sublimation ribbon transfer printer suitable for processing small fabric pieces, woven ribbons, elastic bands, shoelaces, and similar materials.It is suitable for continuous printing on narrow strip materials such as woven ribbons, elastic bands, shoelaces, and lanyards, supporting both single-sided and double-sided printing processes. It is ideal for ribbon processing scenarios involving frequent job changes and a wide variety of designs.The machine’s main specifications are a width of 600 / 900 mm and a power rating of 5.2 / 7 kW (25 / 32 A). Before mass production, it is recommended to conduct a test run using the actual material to confirm the width and number of strips of the web material, as well as process requirements for single- or double-sided printing and process parameters such as temperature, pressure, and speed.

Technical Specifications

Note:The above serves as a reference for the standard configuration of small-to-medium-sized double-sided transfer printing machines for web materials. Actual drum diameter, transfer width, power rating, dimensions, and material handling configurations can be customized based on the material, product width, and production capacity requirements. Final specifications are subject to the technical proposal and contract.

Operating and Safety Instructions

The equipment uses roller heating; the rollers and heating components reach high temperatures during operation. Protective gloves must be worn during operation and cleaning; direct contact with the roller surfaces is strictly prohibited. Before loading material, threading the web, replacing the felt, or adjusting the web width, the equipment must be shut down, and it must be confirmed that the rollers have come to a complete stop and the temperature is within a safe range.There is a risk of pinching and entanglement at the feed rollers, strap fastening device, and pressing sections. Always press the emergency stop button first when handling jammed straps, broken straps, or material misalignment. The equipment must be reliably grounded, and the electrical components must be kept dry and clean.Routine inspections of the heating elements, felt, tensioning mechanism, and web feeding device should be performed as specified in the manual. If unusual noises or abnormal temperatures are detected, shut down the machine immediately for inspection and repair. This machine has a power rating of 5.2 / 7 kW (25 / 32 A); before wiring, verify that the workshop’s power supply capacity meets the requirements.

Selection Recommendations

When selecting a model, first confirm the width of the strip material, the number of strips, and whether single- or double-sided processing is required. This machine is available in widths of 600 / 900 mm;power ratings are 5.2 / 7 kW (25 / 32 A). Select the appropriate configuration based on actual processing dimensions and production capacity goals; if the standard specifications are insufficient, choose a model from the same series with a wider working width or higher power rating. Additionally, verify the workshop’s power capacity, equipment layout, and loading/unloading space, and ensure sufficient operating space is reserved for routine maintenance.

Applications

Suitable for sublimation transfer printing on strip-shaped products such as small fabric pieces, woven ribbons, elastic bands, shoelaces, cell phone lanyards, and pet leashes. Depending on the material and process, it can also be used for small-batch or continuous production of related narrow-width trims. Before formal mass production, it is recommended to provide samples for trial runs to confirm process parameters such as temperature, pressure, speed, and registration.
