Hologram heat presser help

For the holograms you will need a custom die.

Best are silicone dies.

Various vendors are selling them.

You show them your design files/measurements and they will manufacter the dies for you.
Ideally they will already mount them onto bronzing tables. Thats the metal plate which the silicone rubber piece in tipping plastic gets attached to.


Remember. You ONLY need the outer shape of the holo with a fill.

You dont need the actull inside design of the hologram, just the outline.

So if you have visa or mc heatpress holograms.
Measure them or send the manufacter physical samples.

And you will get your silicone dies.


However, if you are going for real high quantity printing I suggest you invest in a kingsley machine.

Pretty much most machines manufactered in the UK or in the USA will do a good job, because they are solid.


Chinese ones tend to be not as accurate and sturdy.
The one that you linked is also chinese made.

Good luck.

Sig panel you can do the same way.

But its easier with sig panel ribbons for cardprinter like evolis pebble or zebra p330i.


Also for your heatpress holograms make sure you have the right temp.

I have heat press holograms that require 300°C to be stamped properly.
