Abstract

La présente invention a trait à un procédé d'impression qui comprend une étape au cours de laquelle une feuille de verre est aplanie en la faisant passer entre une pluralité d'ensembles constitués d'un rouleau rotatif et d'un rouleau pinceur, et un moule en forme de courroie sans fin qui forme une boucle autour d'une pluralité de rouleaux rotatifs est tourné. Après que la feuille de verre et le moule sont insérés entre un ensemble constitué d'un rouleau rotatif et d'un rouleau pinceur, et avant que la feuille de verre et le moule n'aient été amenés depuis un autre ensemble constitué d'un rouleau rotatif et d'un rouleau pinceur, une couche de matière de moulage est serrée entre les rouleaux et un motif en relief du moule est transféré sur la couche de matière de moulage.
