A technology that imparts a pattern to resin simultaneously with injection molding. In Mold Release Transfer.
In-Mold Release (IMR) is a three-dimensional decoration technology that creates products by simultaneously transferring a pre-printed design film (transfer foil) onto molded items during the injection molding process. It is possible to install the precise "foil feeding device" required for IMR on almost all "molding machines" worldwide, and if "dedicated molds" and "dedicated films (transfer foils)" are available, the establishment of IMR technology is feasible. In recent years, amid global efforts toward carbon neutrality, this technology has garnered attention as a necessary method for transitioning from wet processes to dry processes (IMR technology).

basic information
Features of In-Mold Decoration Transfer 1. Decoration can be applied to resin simultaneously with injection molding Since multi-color printing decoration can be applied to the surface of molded products simultaneously with injection molding, significant process shortening can be achieved. Additionally, the molding cycle remains the same as that of conventional molding. 2. Wide range of design compatibility By using materials such as metal vapor deposition, pearl, and metallic inks, it is possible to achieve textures and expressions that serve as alternatives to plating and painting, accommodating a variety of designs. 3. Decoration on three-dimensional surfaces is possible It can accommodate complex three-dimensional shapes, uneven surfaces such as grooves and protrusions, and textured surfaces. 4. No secondary processing required Since no overcoating or heat treatment is needed after in-mold transfer, warping or distortion due to reheating does not occur. 5. Enhanced functionality of the decorative surface In-mold decoration can also add functionalities such as hard coating, resulting in superior surface hardness, wear resistance, and other material properties. 6. Environmentally friendly Unlike painting, plating, or printing, it does not use any solvents, making it a dry process that is environmentally friendly.
