1. Design stage
Color and pattern: Waterproof Zipper Tape chooses black and designs the printed pattern to be applied to the zipper tape. Customers can design it by themselves, or our design team can assist customers in designing, using professional software (such as Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop) to design the pattern or text on the zipper.
2. Make heat transfer film
Prepare heat transfer film and printed pattern: Select heat-resistant heat transfer film, and print the designed pattern on the transfer film through professional printing equipment (such as screen printing or digital printing).
3. Zipper production
Material selection and zipper manufacturing: Select materials such as nylon or PBT as the basic material. These materials have good flexibility and waterproof performance. Use professional equipment to manufacture Zip Waterproof Tape, including the molding of zipper tape and zipper teeth.
4. Heat transfer operation
Preparation: Preheat the zipper and transfer film to a suitable temperature between 160°C and 200°C.
Formal heat transfer: Fit the transfer film tightly to the zipper, heat and apply pressure through the heat press machine, and transfer the pattern on the transfer film to the zipper surface.
Cooling treatment: After heat transfer is complete, remove the zipper and cool it to ensure the pattern is firmly attached to the zipper surface.
5. Post-cleaning
Check and clean the zipper surface to remove residues, and then cover the zipper surface with a waterproof film to enhance the waterproof performance.
Our Waterproof Zips are strictly produced following the above production steps, with good waterproof performance and beautiful patterns.
