Dye sublimation printing: How it works

Before we analyze the cost of sublimation process, it is important to understand how it works. Generally speaking, sublimation refers to a process during which solid particles change into a gaseous state, without becoming a liquid.

During dye sublimation printing, the solid particles of sublimation ink change into a gaseous state under controlled heat and pressure. Thereafter, the gaseous particles stick to the fibers of the substrate (a base material on which an image is transferred).
Once the substrate is removed from the heat source, it cools down. The dye particles are embedded into the substrate.

When it comes to the cost of dye sublimation printing, there is no one-size-fits-all answer for this. Based on the type of substrate, the overall printing costs vary from one business to another.

One of the most important things about dye sublimation is that you will use a polyester material as your substrate. Polyester can withstand the heat during the sublimation process. Hard items, such as mugs require a polyester coating before they can be sublimated. Do you know what factors will affect sublimation cost?

Here are some factors that will affect your total printing costs:

The printer you use: You need an Inkjet printer for sublimation process.
Heat transfer machine: A heat press is used to convert the sublimation ink (on paper) to the substrate you want to decorate. To ensure high quality dye sublimation, it is imperative that you use a good quality heat press.
