Abstract

See full text

A method of manufacturing printed images on metal with tight bends provides for crack free edges at the tight bends, something previously unattainable in the marketplace. Specifically, prior to bending the metal, the at least coated metal (if not dye sublimated printed) is at an elevated temperature in a range of 90 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, such as in a range of 190-200 degrees. The metal is then bent which has been found to permit self-leveling of the coating throughout the tight bend, as opposed to it being so narrow that cracking occurs.
