Blanket for Use in a Cold-foil Stamping Process and Cold-foil Stamping Device Having a Blanket

摘要

A blanket for use in a cold-foil stamping process includes hard elements at least partially embedded in a cover layer. As a result, a line pressure in a transfer nip of a transfer unit of a cold-foil stamping device can be adjusted and increased to such an extent that a transfer layer is transferred with sharper edges from a transfer foil to a printing substrate. Structuring of the transfer layer due to the hard elements can be successfully avoided at the same time, if desired, by completely embedding the hard elements into the cover layer. A cold-foil stamping device including a transfer cylinder and a corresponding blanket, is also provided.
