Definitions

  • the invention is included in the field of industrial processes of currying for the ink-jet printing on natural or synthetic leather.
  • the present invention suggests a method to optimize the existing industrial processes by inserting stations for the treatment and the computerized mapping in order to manage an ink-jet printer with special selectable programs managed by a computer.
  • Figure 1 is a general scheme of a plant for the optimizing of an industrial process of currying and print of the leather, it can be noticed the presence of a mapping station (5) interconnected to the station (6) for the computerized print with an ink-jet printer.
  • the unrefined leather ( 1) after having being prepared with special treatments (2 and 3) is spread with a layer (4) that constitutes a specific film that if fit to be printed.
  • the mapping station (5) are detected the structural and morphologic characteristics of the surface (4) of the leather.
  • Figure 2 represents schematically, in partially enlarged section, a polymeric film (4) extruded on the leather prepared with special treatments (2 and 3).
  • film (4) has the feature of absorbing water to allow the employment of water based inks for the ink-jet printing.
  • Figure 3 indicates schematically the intervention of a ink-jet head equipped with a cartridge filled with ink based on water or organic solvent. It should be noticed that the decorative element (6) is printed upon the polymeric film (4) specifically placed upon the leather's surface.
  • Figure (4) shows a protective polymeric film (7) extruded upon the polymeric film previously decorated (6). In the figures each single detail is marked as follows:
  • 5 is computer station for the mapping to detect the morphologic and structural characteristics of the treated leather
  • mapping station 5 indicates the computerized ink-jet decoration controlled by the mapping station 5;
  • the method object of the present in ⁇ 'ention can be realized with generic ink-jet printers managed by standard computers. All the methods that will be employed to realize decorations of natural or synthetic leathers and that will feature operational sequences similar or dcdueible from the ones as basically described, illustrated and hereinafter claimed, will be held as being part of the protection sphere of the present invention.
