A sublimation device includes a first heater and a second heater. The first heater includes a proximal end, a distal end, and an inner surface. The distal end is disposed opposite the proximal end. The inner surface extends between the proximal end and the distal end and at least partially forms a cavity. The second heater is disposed proximate the distal end of the first heater.

The object of this invention is to transfer, fix and polish images produced by: toner laser printers or inkjet printers, flexographic technology, silkscreen technology, offset technology, printed on reel support (A), on the plastic or metal surface of three-dimensional objects (16), thanks to which it is possible to detach images from the reel support (A) and subsequently transfer them to the surface of said plastic or metal objects (16) by a thermomechanical (1, 10) action.

A slidable substrate deposition holding apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus may include a rectangular frame having a first edge, a second edge, a third edge and a fourth edge. The apparatus may further include a first rail and a second rail attached between the first and second edges. The apparatus may further include a first support bracket and a second support bracket mounted on the first and second rails. The first and second support brackets may be disposed between the first and second rails. The apparatus may additionally include a first carriage and a second carriage. The first carriage may be pivotally attached to the first support bracket and the second carriage may be pivotally attached to the second support bracket. Further, at least one of the first carriage and the second carriage may be configured to slide on the first rail and the second rail.
