The cold foiling process uses the first two towers of a sheetfed press, the first applies a glue using a standard plate to carry the glue image to the sheet of paper, and the second unit presses foil against the paper which adheres to the glue and pulls away from the backing sheet. It can then be overprinted to create a wide range of metallic colours. It is a process that adds impact to packaging, to point of sale and other posters, to magazine covers and even to brochures and catalogues.
The design of the Compact Foilers CF1000 machine means there is no contact between roller and the foil surface above the press, so eliminating the major cause for the foil flaking. Foils too are much better than in the past with a broad selection of metal finishes to choose from. Silver offers the best scope for overprinting and achieving high impact results.
This device can go on any press and opens new avenues for cold foiling and special effects.” The CF1000 process starts with an unwind/rewind unit that feeds the foil, locked into a docking station at the side of the press. The foil passes through rollers and down into the press controlled through servo motors which match the speed of the foil to the speed of the press, meaning that the CF1000 will run at full press speed. The foil is then fed back to be rewound. Because the unwind and wind units are to the side of the press, there is no need for heavy lifting technology to bring the roll of foil into position above the press.
