Description
Create Raised 3D Textile Graphics with Q5-7109 UV Silicone Printing Film
Q5-7109 is a 0.5mm UV 3D printing film for raised textile graphics. Artwork is printed layer by layer with UV ink, cured instantly, cut, and heat-pressed onto fabric — and the finished decoration looks and feels like a traditional silicone or drip-mould label. The difference is the process: everything is digital, so there are no screens, no moulds, no tooling fees, and no minimum order quantity.
That makes Q5-7109 a practical choice for garment decorators, team-kit suppliers, promotional product manufacturers, and custom apparel workshops that need raised logos, lettering, numbers, and badges — including small, mixed, and sample orders that silicone tooling makes uneconomical.
Why Choose Q5-7109
- No tooling, no MOQ. Digital UV printing replaces mould making and screen preparation, so sampling is fast and small or mixed orders stay profitable.
- Silicone look, TPU construction. The raised finish reproduces the visual depth and tactile feel of traditional silicone and drip-mould labels — on a TPU film that prints digitally.
- True 3D height. White ink, colour ink, and varnish are stacked layer by layer and UV-cured; ink-drop thickness builds decoration heights from 0.1mm to 1mm with sharp, embossed edges.
- Wash durability. Tested to the 4A washing standard for 3 cycles: no blistering, de-lamination, shrinkage, or cracking, with colour fading kept within 15%.
- Abrasion resistance ≥ 80% on the ink-rub decoloration test, for decorations that hold up to daily wear.
- Batch-to-batch consistency. Same-batch colour difference is controlled to ΔE < 1.5, so repeat orders match.
- Clean, complete transfers. Presses sharply and fully, with no burrs, hollow spots, glue overflow, or de-lamination.

How the Process Works
- Design — prepare the logo, lettering, number, or badge artwork at final size.
- Print — print onto Q5-7109 with a UV 3D label printer using dedicated UV ink: a white ink base, then colour ink and varnish stacked layer by layer. Reference setting for an A3 single-head printer: white ink volume 4×, varnish volume 4×.
- Cure — UV light cures each layer instantly; ink-drop thickness builds the raised texture.
- Cut & weed — contour-cut with an edge-tracking flatbed cutter or laser engraving machine, then remove the waste film.
- Heat transfer — position the graphic on the garment, cover it, and press.
- Finish — peel, then inspect edges, adhesion, colour, and the raised effect.
Application Scenarios
Q5-7109 suits T-shirts, hoodies, jackets, caps, canvas bags, and pillow cases, as well as shoes and gloves. Typical uses include chest logos, sleeve marks, back graphics, team emblems, cap logos, bag branding, names, numbers, and personalised gift designs — anywhere a decoration needs visible depth and a tactile surface.
FAQ
What is Q5-7109?
Q5-7109 is a 0.5mm UV 3D printing film for raised textile graphics. Designs are printed with UV ink, UV-cured, cut, weeded, and heat-pressed onto garments and textile products.
Is it a real silicone heat transfer label?
No. Q5-7109 is a TPU-based film, but the finished decoration reproduces the look and feel of a traditional silicone or drip-mould label. The key difference is the process: it is digitally printed, so there is no tooling cost and no minimum order quantity.
What printer and ink do I need?
A UV 3D label printer with dedicated 3D UV ink, printing on the UV TPU film. Reference setting for an A3 single-head printer: white ink volume 4× and varnish volume 4×. The 3D effect requires dedicated printers, inks, and film — unmatched consumables will not achieve it.
What are the heat press settings?
For the 0.5mm version: 165–175°C, 3 kg pressure, 15–20 s. For the 0.3mm version: 150–160°C, 3 kg, 10–15 s. Cover the design with a cloth or release film while pressing, and always test-press a sample before bulk production.
Is there a minimum order quantity?
No. Because the film is digitally printed — no screens, no moulds — sampling and small mixed orders are economical. That is the main advantage of Q5-7109 over traditional silicone labels.
How durable is the finished transfer?
Wash-tested to the 4A standard for 3 cycles with no blistering, de-lamination, shrinkage, or cracking (colour fading ≤ 15%), and abrasion resistance of 80% or higher on the ink-rub test.
What sizes and colours are available?
White, gold, and silver. Rolls are supplied as 1.35m × 25m and can be slit to a width of 45cm; the 0.5mm version ships as one roll per carton (47 × 22.5 × 22.5cm, approx. 6.5kg).
What can I decorate with it?
T-shirts, hoodies, jackets, caps, canvas bags, pillow cases, shoes, and gloves — especially team emblems, raised logos, names, numbers, and personalised gift designs. Always confirm adhesion on a new fabric with a test press first.
