Abstract

la présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'articles en plastique portant une image imprimée. Le procédé consiste à imprimer une image sur un matériau support à l'aide d'une technique d'imagerie numérique et à confectionner l'article par moulage par injection avec décoration dans le moule permettant d'obtenir un article avec matériau support et image intégrés. Avec le procédé de l'invention, il est possible de fabriquer des articles moulés présentant des décorations de qualité photographique ou quasi photographique à l'aide d'une technique d'imagerie numérique pour la production d'images telle qu'impression par transfert colorant thermique, impression par jet d'encre et électrophotographie. De telles techniques permettent d'obtenir des images de bonne qualité et sont plus souples d'emploi que les techniques d'impression actuelles. De façon générale, les images peuvent être imprimées rapidement et facilement au moyen d'une technique d'imagerie numérique et des articles produits avec des séries restreintes d'images ou des images en unique exemplaire.the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing plastic articles bearing a printed image. The method consists in printing an image on a support material using a digital imaging technique and in making the article by injection molding with decoration in the mold making it possible to obtain an article with integrated support material and image. . With the process of the invention, it is possible to manufacture molded articles having photographic or quasi-photographic quality decorations using a digital imaging technique for the production of images such as dye transfer printing. thermal, inkjet printing and electrophotography. Such techniques provide good quality images and are more flexible to use than current printing techniques. In general, images can be printed quickly and easily using digital imaging technique and articles produced with limited series of images or single copy images.
