    Correct with some things, but I am only looking at mugs. Someone posted a link earlier to this machine

    http://www.bestsublimation.cn/heat-p...tmpl=component

    Which looks like they have to be wrapped.

    Only guessing on the above as suppliers have yet to release any real details

    Yeah, I posted to that machine, but hadn't notice that the mugs were all in wraps - trying to work out how that works then. I was obviously dreaming of putting 12 mugs in, and having one big sheet of film that got sucked over them all in one go.

    Gotta be one of the most boring videos I've seen! I thought it was some sort of joke

Knowing the company and the history of the owner, there may be a subtle difference somewhere to differentiate the market, but these are Sawgrass inks at the end of the day and Sawgrass haven't (yet) launched a specific 3D ink generally to the market. Pricing of the inks are also the same as the SubliJetIQ inks for the Epson WP4015...
    Just to update on progress here. I can confirm that the Ricoh SG3110 printer using standard SubliJetR inks has successfully printed onto gold backed 3D film and perfectly sublimated onto 3D iPad cases at temperatures of 135-140 degrees C. Confirming my original suspicions that VisiSub3D works in exactly the same way as SubliJet standard sublimation inks. This gold backed 3D film should be available at around 1/3 of the price of the link provided, pucks for iPhone cases at significantly lower prices. There are differences in the 3D vacuum machines and there will be the hobbyist machines available as well as the much more commercial end of the market depending on budgets.

    Hi Martin,
    Can you provide any clarity on how the vacuum presses work for mugs and similar items - does the film get pulled over them, or are they wrapped?

    Sorry Tim, but I've been asked to refrain from responding to threads that directly advertise/detail future products and with that in mind, it may not be appropriate for me to comment further.

    Tim, you can watch a demonstration of the machine at this link which will give you a good idea of how it works http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=HygjixIOxoQ

    I have to admit after watching the bit with the mugs it is just like using an halogen oven. Fair enough it looks good for doing the plates & shot glasses but, how often do most of us get asked for plates or shot glasses?
