  • Patent number: 8960087
    Abstract: A device and method for transferring an image-forming layer from a transfer foil to a printing sheet is provided. The device includes an application unit for coating an image area of the printing sheet with an adhesive pattern that is colored and a coating module for transferring the image-forming layer from the transfer foil to the printing sheet. The image forming layer having a visual effect. The color of the adhesive pattern and the visual effect of the image-forming layer are configured such that the color of the adhesive pattern modifies the visual effect of the image forming layer when the image forming layer is applied to the printing sheet over the adhesive pattern.

  • Patent number: 8834659
    Abstract: The aim of the invention is to improve the supply of transfer foil in a coating module in which the image-forming layers of a transfer foil are transferred to a printing material. To achieve this, a partial pressing surface is located in the coating module for transferring the layers of the transfer foil. This permits targeted control of the foil feed. The transfer foil can be fed past a pressure cylinder in an approximately tangential manner and with a limited width.

  • Patent number: 8201605
    Abstract: The present invention provides a device for transferring image-forming layers from a transfer foil to printing sheets. The device includes a coating device for applying the image-forming layer of the transfer foil to an image area on the printing sheet that has been provided with an adhesive patter such that the image-forming layer is separated from a carrier layer of the transfer foil.

  • Publication number: 20100006234
    Abstract: In order to transfer an image-type coating from a carrier film to a printed sheet, an image-type adhesive is applied to the printed sheet. In a film transfer module (2), the carrier film comprising the image-type coating is rolled over the printed sheet using contact pressure such that the coating adheres to the adhesive sections, thus forming an image. In order to improve the function, simplify the device and increase flexibility, a modular holder for film rolls of the transfer foil (5) is provided, allowing simplified handling.

  • Publication number: 20070243322
    Abstract: The present invention can increase the number of instances where foils can be fed into a coating module for transferring imaging layers from a transfer foil onto a material that is to be printed. A transfer foil is provided that carries image elements to the foil-guiding mechanism. The image elements are transferred in the coating module from the transfer foil onto the material that is to be printed. The transfer foil can be guided past a pressure roll in an approximately tangential direction.
