Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide lumber stack marking machines and methods of applying marking sets to lumber stacks.

A device, system, and method for printing a vein map onto a patient's skin may include a probe and a printer. The probe may be configured to identify a location of a target vein beneath the patient's skin. The printer may be configured to receive the location and, using the location, print the vein map onto the patient's skin to indicate the location. The vein map may comprise antimicrobial ink printed onto the patient's skin with one or more colors and/or one or more patterns. The vein map may be a two-dimensional vein map or a three-dimensional vein map that indicates the location of the target vein within the patient, a width of the target vein, and/or a depth of the target vein within the patient.

A method of forming a digital embossing on a surface by bonding hard press particles to a carrier. A liquid binder pattern is applied on the carrier by a digital drop application head. Hard press particles are applied on the carrier and the binder pattern such that some hard press particles are bonded to the carrier by the liquid pattern and non-bonded press particles are removed. The carrier with the bonded hard press particles is pressed to the surface and an embossing is formed when the carrier with the hard press particles is removed.

A manufacturing method of decorated natural leather including the steps of: attaching a crusted leather (45,83) with its corium side by an adhesive (46) to a temporary carrier (47,80); inkjet printing on the crusted leather (45,83) on its grain side with one or more pigmented inkjet inks a decorative image containing a plurality of sub-images (85); cutting decorated leather pieces (87a to 87c) from the inkjet printed crusted leather; wherein the temporary carrier (45,83) includes a plurality of identifiers on its surface; wherein the decorated leather pieces (87a to 87c) correspond to sub-images of the decorative image (85); and wherein each decorated leather piece (87a to 87c) is attached via the corium side to part of the temporary carrier (47,80) including one or more identifiers (81).

The present invention is directed to an article, especially a door and a door component, such as a door facing (or door skin), having a pattern, preferably a woodgrain pattern. This invention also is directed to a method of making the door and the door component such as the door facing (or door skin) by inkjet printing of a pattern on the door facing (or door skin). The printing direction and ink droplets are provided to deliver a high quality image.

A method of forming a digital print on a surface by applying powder of dry ink including colourants on the surface, bonding a part of the dry ink powder to the surface by a digital heating print head such that the digital print is formed by the bonded dry ink colourants and removing non-bonded dry ink from the surface.

The present invention relates to a printing method for transferring printing substance from an ink carrier to a substrate, in which the printing substance undergoes a change in volume and/or position with the aid of an energy-emitting device that emits energy during a process time in the form of electromagnetic waves wherein the printing substance comprises a high molecular weight binder. In addition, the present invention describes a printing substance for carrying out the method and the use thereof.

The present disclosure presents a printed absorbent article which includes a hydrophobic substrate, an ink receptive coating and an aqueous ink. The ink receptive coating has a base weight from about 2 gsm to about 20 gsm. The aqueous ink contains pigments. The receptive coating absorbs liquid from the ink at a contact angle at or about zero degrees at which the ink is printed onto the substrate through the receptive coating at a printing speed of at least about 500 feet per minute.

A manufacturing method of decorated natural leather including the steps of: attaching a crusted leather (45) with its corium side by an adhesive (46) to a temporary carrier (47); inkjet printing the crusted leather (45) on its grain side with one or more pigmented inkjet inks; wherein the surface area of the temporary carrier (47) is larger than the surface area of the crusted leather (45).

A system and composition for imprinting and removing high resolution images onto natural or artificial lawns and fields, covered areas such as sports fields, and landscapes, using a foaming carrier composition which enhances the functional performance of liquids containing special active agents to accomplish specific tasks such as marking and painting. The foaming carrier composition can be a solution of one or more active agents for painting, cleaning, lubricating, fertilizing, and effervescing various surfaces including athletic fields.
