Foil Stamping Plate Making DIY System
A  photo-etched die is used to bond the adhesive coat of the hot stamping  foil to the surface of the object that is to be decorated. Foil stamping  is employed in a diverse range of consumer and industrial applications. Plate  or die making is the key of hot foil stamping. Water soluble  photopolymer plate is currently the simplest, fastest and least¡ªcost  plate making method. We are supplying a die making kit to our customers,  once they own this kit, they can make hot foil stamping die by  themselves. (how  to make plate)

UV  Exposure Unit  (010002)

In the process of foil stamping, it is used to exposure.  The printed transparency film and photopolymer plate  touches each other  closely. Turn on the power, the UV rays shine through the film and to  the plate, the light part of the plate will have a photochemical  reaction, and changes into some other thing that will not soluble in  water. After cleaning the plate, this part can be left as a raised part.  While the light-tight part of the film block the rays so this area of  the plate can be soluble in the water when you washing the plate.
