Plate or die making is the key of hot foil stamping. Water soluble photopolymer plate is currently the simplest, fastest and least—cost 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)
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.
