Transparent Embossing Die for Maxita Hot Foil Stamping
💐Points forts du produit
The Transparent Embossing Die isn’t a must-have, but it can make your logo impressions deeper and more defined, add a 3D effect, protect leather surfaces from heat damage, and help foil adhere more securely after stamping.
Here’s an in-depth look at its working principles, product attributes, effects, relationship with foil, and step-by-step usage guide.
1. Working Principle of the Transparent Embossing Die:
The transparent embossing die works by transferring heat and pressure from a hot stamping machine onto the leather surface, creating deeper, more defined impressions. Its transparency allows users to see the exact positioning of logos or designs during the process, ensuring accurate alignment. Additionally, it serves as a heat barrier, protecting the leather from direct exposure to high temperatures.
2. Product Attributes:
- Material: Usually made of heat-resistant transparent special plastic or silicone, these materials maintain stability under high temperatures and resist deformation.
- Heat Resistance: Designed to withstand the high heat of hot stamping, effectively isolating direct heat from the leather surface.
- Transparency: Allows users to see the design placement clearly, making precise alignment possible during embossing.
3. Effects and Benefits:
- Enhances Depth and 3D Effect: The transparent embossing die applies even pressure to create deeper, more defined logos or designs, giving a refined, three-dimensional look.
- Protects Leather Surface: During the hot stamping process, the die acts as a heat shield, preventing the leather’s coating from being damaged by direct heat, thus preserving the leather’s original texture.
- Improves Foil Adhesion: When used with foil, the die ensures that the metallic layer of the foil adheres more securely to the leather surface, reducing the risk of peeling or flaking over time.
4. Relationship with Foil and Key Differences:
-
Relationship:
- The transparent embossing die is often used in conjunction with foil during hot stamping, applying pressure to transfer the metallic layer from the foil onto the leather surface. It ensures that the foil adheres evenly and firmly to the leather.
- While the foil provides the metallic sheen, the embossing die serves as a precise mold, defining the shape and details of the transferred design.
-
Key Differences:
- Transparent Embossing Die: Used primarily for protecting the leather and ensuring precise depth and detail in embossing. It does not leave color on the leather but focuses on creating a clear, indented design.
- Foil: A metallic-coated material that is transferred onto the leather to create designs with a shiny, reflective finish. It adds color and metallic effects, such as gold or silver, to the embossed areas.
5. Step-by-Step Usage Guide:
-
Preparation:
- Attach the transparent embossing die to the hot stamping machine and adjust it to the desired angle.
- Cut the foil to the appropriate size and place it on the leather where the design is to be applied.
-
Heat the Hot Stamping Machine:
- Set the temperature and pressure of the hot stamping machine according to the type of leather, typically between 100-150°C (212-302°F).
-
Use the Transparent Embossing Die for Alignment and Stamping:
- Cover the foil with the transparent embossing die, and apply uniform pressure using the hot stamping machine. The transparency of the die allows precise alignment of the design.
- Hold the pressure for a few seconds (adjustable based on leather thickness and foil type) to ensure the foil transfers securely onto the leather.
-
Remove the Embossing Die and Foil:
- Once the stamping is complete, first remove the transparent embossing die, then gently peel off the foil. Check that the metallic layer is evenly bonded to the leather surface.
-
Final Adjustments:
- If necessary, use the embossing die again for a slight touch-up to ensure the clarity of the design and secure the foil layer firmly.

Let customers speak for us
Wasn't expecting much for the price. Very happy to be as surprised as I am. Very good build quality. Excellent value!
Finally got the whole set together after waiting a little over a week. Big thanks to the shop owner for the help and the little gift! The product quality is great, and it's really good value for the price.
The walnut base is sturdy enough. Embossing effect is also quite good. I opted for the #1 handle, but I might purchase a #2 handle later on.
If you're looking for a stamping machine that excels in design, functionality, quality, and price, MAXITA is a trustworthy brand to consider.
I started using it right away, and the results are good. Definitely a great investment
When I first got my hands on this, I could only say, Wow, this is luxurious! I love the rich walnut color and the slightly glossy finish. It was pretty easy to assemble, and when I started using it, I found it to be very sturdy. The rotation is smooth, and it even has a handy spot for storing my stitching needles. Overall, it's definitely worth the price and the wait.
My wife surprised me with this as a birthday present, and considering it's from China, it's surprisingly well-made. I didn't have high expectations initially. I've been searching for a good way to skive chrome-tanned leather for sewing preparation for quite some time.
I was almost set on purchasing the Schärffix skiver or even considering a bell skiver. I already own an old cast iron hand-crank gear-driven American skiver that works exceptionally well with vegetable-tanned leather. It's great for thicker leather but not ideal for chrome-tanned leather since it wasn't designed with that in mind. I have a variety of hand skiving tools including round knives, head knives, dexter knives, Tandy skivers, and various handmade tools for paring/skiving. However, this YaeTek Manual Leather Skiver seems to be the best fit for my current needs. While a bell skiver would be ideal for full-time skiving of chrome-tanned leather, this tool meets my needs perfectly. It's a step up from hand skiving tools but not as productive as a bell skiver.
My initial impression was not great - the parts seemed loose and sloppy. I had to tighten the turnbuckles, adjust the slop, and lock down the lock nuts. After adding a drop of sewing oil to the threads and pivot points, and a dab of grease to the cam lever, everything operates smoothly with minimal backlash. It was refreshing to only need to make a few adjustments, unlike many Chinese tools I've dealt with in the past. The machining on the blade holder could be better, and the included blades are terrible.
Adjustment is quick, and with some common sense, you can achieve repeatable results. I haven't experienced the deflection mentioned by Jeff Peachey with the Schärffix-style paring/skiving machine, but it's possible it may become an issue with long-term use. So far, I've dulled half a dozen double-sided blades, but the skiver is still working well.
The 18 blades included with this skiver were junk, but Schärffix blades fit and hold a good edge. Standard double-edged razor blades also fit and are a good option. I recommend buying a sample pack from Amazon to try different manufacturers before purchasing a box of 100.
Overall, the YaeTek Manual Leather Skiver works well on soft leather and thin veg-tan, but heavy veg-tanned leather will likely damage the tool quickly. For heavy veg-tanned leather, a sturdier machine like the Landis or American type skiver is recommended.
It's a great tool, and I would have purchased it myself if my wife hadn't gotten it for me first.
I find it really smooth and effective when skiving hard leather with this tool, but it can be a bit tricky with soft leather as it tends to deform sometimes. It requires some skill and practice. Overall, the product offers great value for the money and is quite suitable for beginners.
The product is substantial and comes in excellent packaging. The customer service team was very helpful in resolving a minor shipping issue, making it a pleasant shopping experience overall.
They work well for drawing fine lines and filling large areas. The dark colors come out vibrant and smooth. They're easy to use, and safe for kids. Overall, they’re a decent option for ceramic projects.
After adding water, the lines come out clear, and it flows well without clumping up. The colors are vibrant and perform nicely, which makes it a great bang for your buck. The only downside is that the color labels are in a language I can't read, but aside from that, it's spot on.
I recently picked up the 12-color Underglaze Set, and overall, I'm pretty happy with it. It's a great basic set for anyone getting into watercolor or DIY glazing. The colors are simple and essential, which is perfect for beginners. After applying a clear glaze and firing it, I was really pleased to see that the colors still looked vibrant, which is awesome.
Just a heads-up though, make sure to shake the bottles well before you use them to get the consistency and color right. While I’m happy with the colors provided, it would be nice to have a few more options to play with. But yeah, all in all, I'm quite satisfied with this set—it’s a solid choice, just remember to shake well before using!
I think the best thing about this product is its precise scales and dual modes for marking the width I want to cut. The blade is super sharp and works especially well on tough leather. The wooden handle is lighter in color than I expected, but it feels really comfortable in hand. I've already recommended it to a friend.
I first heard about this brand from a friend who runs a small but exquisite leather crafting studio in New York. I was truly impressed by the craftsmanship. The tool itself is quite easy to handle, which is great. However, it would be even better if it came with a manual, as I'm not particularly skilled in this area.
This is a great tool for crafting belts and straps. Just be cautious when tightening the screws that hold the blade—applying too much pressure can risk breaking it. Always handle with care to maintain the blade's integrity.
