Abstract

Surface relief microstructures such as holograms may be replicated rapidly and with accuracy on a web based in-situ polymerization replication (ISPR) printing apparatus. The apparatus may consist of a number of stations including a first radiation curing stage that at least partially cures a radiation curable coating and a second radiation curing stage which also comprises a microstructure embossing surface which imparts a microstructure to the partially cured radiation curable coating as it is in contact with the microstructure embossing surface. Other stations including heating units, cooling units, post-cure units and secondary UV sources associated with the microstructure embossing surface. The ISPR printing apparatus is arranged to easily and effectively accommodate these additional stations and is operated to attain maximum web speed whilst maintaining image quality.
