FLAT-FLAT   ROUND-FLAT   ROUND-ROUND   FLAT-FLAT PRINCIPLE   Paper or carton sheets processed on Foilmaster stampers are : picked up from the top of the pile and shingled feed on a registration table,  registered in reference to the front and side edges, covered with foil on desired areas. Foil application is achieved through proper combination of heat and pressure inside the platen section. It is also a common practice to apply foil with embossing simultaneously. This practice requires a more complex set of dies and counterparts. If applying holograms, the principle remain the same however the hologram is first precisely positioned accordingly to the sheet.  Pile delivered in a single piece ROUND-ON-FLAT PRINCIPLE     As the cylinder rotates it produces a narrow linear pressure zone across the flat form with the stamping tools. This principle prevents air inclusions, heating and degassing of the printed material. The foil stamping cylinder presses are ideal for producing ultra-fine motifs or for large solids, as well as flat, embossed and textured stamping, and holograms of all kinds.   ROUND-ON-ROUND PRINCIPLE     With its round-on-round rotary principle, the Foiljet not only offers extraordinary speeds, it also offers the highest levels of foil stamping quality. The Foiljet can achieve a 400 percent increase in productivity over cylinder presses for foil stamping! The rotary principle also allows the application of extremely fine fonts to be placed next to large solids.
