  • Patent number: 8328339
    Abstract: A method for digitally printing on textile articles comprises a digital application of a dedicated diluent substance, according to the type of used coloring material (digital ink), thereby evenly distributing the volume and concentration of the dyeing substances, independently from the intensity of a desired color. An apparatus for carrying out the method uses a portion of a printing module, i.e. a printing head, not involved by the printing of the basic colors C-M-Y-K-, for injecting a specific diluent substance selectively integrating the printing, in which the color or dye, because of its low intensity, would be less than the amount necessary for achieving a passing of the coloring substances up to the opposite side of the fabric material to be printed upon.

  • Patent number: 6820555
    Abstract: A process and a plant for applying of one or more compounds, such as inks or coatings, to a substrate. In each station of the plant at least one compound is applied by a process that requires applying an essentially liquid mixture containing the compound to be applied to a transfer medium, heating the tranfer medium to obtain coagulation of the portion of the mixture which is in contact with the transfer medium, and placing the transfer placed in contact with the substrate so that the coagulated portion of the mixture is applied to the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20030091743
    Abstract: A process and a plant for applying of one or more compounds, such as, for example, inks or coatings, to a substrate, are described. In each station of the plant at least one compound is applied by means of a process that requires a first step of applying an essentially liquid mixture containing the compound to be applied to a transfer medium, a second step of heating the transfer medium to obtain coagulation of the portion of the mixture which is in contact with the transfer medium, and a third step in which the transfer medium is placed in contact with the substrate so that the coagulated portion of the mixture is applied to the substrate.
