Multiaxial fabrics are comprised of several layers of fiberglass threads in a tightly woven design. Fiberglass is a tough, lightweight material that is commonly used in boat building, insulation, and plastic moldings. A multiaxial fiber may consist of five to seven layers depending upon the final application. These fibers are bonded together using a special resin-coated polyethylene or epoxy sandwich. The resulting product, a multiaxial fiber, is a sturdy material with high tensile strength and great thermal conductivity.
This is a very strong and tough material that can be printed on with ease. It has a smooth surface finish and excellent wear resistance. The resulting product can be almost invisible once it dries. Multiaxial fibers can be printed on these products using different methods such as hot stamping, roll-to-roll, laser imprinting, and wet-out printing. The wet-out method, which dries the fiber by using water from a container to induce evaporation, can be done on either paper or cardboard. This technique provides outstanding quality and is most preferred for large packaging jobs.
To create a multiaxial fabric with borders, we use different methods. Box-sizing is one of the most effective ways to produce a good looking border design on any multiaxial fiber. It's usually done by cutting out a large border and then joining two adjoining squares in the pattern using a die. When we come to box-sizing, the finished product should have uniform thickness and good visual contrast.
Another method that we use to print multiaxial fabrics is called lettering. We write decorative words on the multiaxial material using a rotary pen. The words are written on the fiber and the material is cut into pieces. We use special dies to cut the letters. After all the pieces are cut into the desired size, we use special tape to attach it to the frame.
The last technique that we use in our multiaxial printing is called stapling. In this technique, we place the paper on the frame under the multiaxial material. We use a stapler in pressing the stapled text to the fiberglass frame. The finished product should have uniform thickness and good visual contrast.
These are the different techniques that are used to print multiaxial fabrics. All these techniques are very important in making a durable and high quality multiaxial material. We can check out some online examples on the Internet. Most of the websites display samples of text and images that are printed using this technique. If you want to make a test of your own, you can take a look at some online samples that are available online.
