    Plate Printing - Pixmax, Coralgraph or something else?

    Hi all

    We want to experiment printing onto side and dinner plates. There are a couple of cheapy presses for plates and wondered if anyone has experience of them?

    both are c#@£ that type of heating element will not print to the edge of the element, in fact you are lucky if you can get to within 1.5cm of the element edge.

    Thank you for your response. As someone clearly experienced in these presses are you able to recommend a better alternative though? Kind regards, Olly.

    Hi. Apologies for delay but just back from vacation. 3D vacuum would work probably but only for those side plates. The machine does come with a plate sleeve if I recall. Food for thought

    Thinking outside the box now. You know that you can now vacuum pack food and cook it in water baths. What about using the same method to vacuum a plate and the use an oven of some sort. Don't know what temp the vacuum bags will go to though.
