Hot-stamping press

There is described a hot-stamping press (10; 10″; 10′″) comprising a foil application unit (2; 2*) designed to allow transfer or lamination of foil material (FM) by hot-stamping onto a substrate (S) supplied in the form of successive sheets or successive portions of a continuous web, which foil material (FM) is fed to the foil application unit (2; 2*) in the form of a foil carrier (FC) supplied by means of a foil feeding system (3). The hot-stamping press (10; 10″; 10′″) further comprises at least one UV-curing unit (61; 62; 63) located along a path (A) of the substrate (S) downstream of the foil application unit (2; 2*) to subject the foil material (FM) transferred or laminated onto the substrate (S) to a UV-curing operation. The foil material (FM) is provided with an adhesive intended to ensure adhesion of the foil material (FM) onto the substrate (S), which adhesive comprises a combination of hot-melt compounds reacting to the application of heat produced by the foil application unit (2; 2*) and UV-curing compounds reacting to the application of ultraviolet radiation produced by the UV-curing unit (61; 62; 63).

Method of manufacturing hybrid parts consisting of metallic and non-metallic materials at high temperature
11584115 · 2023-02-21 · ·

This invention generally relates to a method of manufacturing hybrid parts comprising metallic and non-metallic materials at high temperature. During the method, a hollow metallic feedstock heated to a temperature in the austenite region may be placed in a die and filled with a non-metallic material in a viscous condition, after which the feedstock in the die is formed and then controlled-cooled to cause hardening of the non-metallic material in the region of contact between the metallic and non-metallic material. Afterwards, the semi-finished product is removed from the die and cooled to room temperature. The rate of cooling may be adjusted to generate compressive stress in the surface layer of the non-metallic material, which reduces the risk of cracking.
