Image ReTransfer PVC Card Printing

ReTransfer Printing is an amazing technology that allows you to print PVC Cards with FULL PHOTO-REALISTIC COLOR, FULL BLEED IMAGES in perfect color without the pitfalls of traditional dye sublimation card printing.

Durability of your printed PVC Card is substantially improved by the thermal bonding of the substrate film with the card material.  The ReTransfer process encapsulates the printed image within a bond of extremely durable material and increases the card life substantially.  Additional security overlays may be adhered on top of the bonding film to increase durability and improve security.  Custom secure holographic overlays are available.

Cost savings are seen in the reduced wear and tear on the print heads.  Since the printer is printing on a substrate material (film) that is very thin and strong there is less wear on the print head because there is very little variation in size or texture on the surface area of the film.  Since the film is a standard thickness the print head does not have to move to accommodate thickness variations in the cards.

Consistency of Printing is a result of the process that prints directly on the transfer film. Each print is extremely high quality and there is little variation in the print quality because of the way that the film and ribbons are loaded into the printing chamber.  Once the film has the reverse image embedded, it is then laminated to the PVC material.  In a traditional printer there are several variables that affect the print quality including card size variations, edge smoothness, foreign material on the card surface, ribbon tightness and as the ribbon is used there is a tendency of the ribbons to stretch or move slightly out of alignment.  This is not the case with ReTransfer printing as this process is very tightly controlled and consistent quality is assured.
