- Lay the foil evenly onto the fabric and press at the specified settings.
- Monitor temperature and pressure during continuous operation.
- Allow the fabric to cool completely before peeling off the PET film.
2. Xline Series – Application Conditions
Solvent-based adhesive for roll-to-roll / continuous printing
Temperature: 120~140℃
Speed: Adjustable according to your process (typically 15-25 m/min)
- Control tension on film winder and rewinder, ensuring adequate tension.
- Apply solvent-based adhesive to the foil, pass through the drying cabinet to partially cure the adhesive, then press onto the fabric.

- Allow the fabric to fully cure in a ripening room heated to 70°C (approximately 24 hours), then peel off the PET film.
Note:
Keep away from heat above 90℃ after application, as high heat may cause color fading. If ironing is required, cover with a thin fabric.
