laminate with properties as shown in example 1 k 1 laminated into 1st nip the film made in example 4 was printed with a polyester based ink using a 230 mesh screen the decorated film was then thermoformed at 350 400 u00b0 f using a u201c zero gravity u201d process this process comprises a sealed thermoformer that allows the application of positive air pressure under the film during preheating and eliminates film sagging the decorated laminate film must be dried before forming to remove the water from the polycarbonate layer the preferred drier conditions are 250 u00b0 f for 15 minutes 10 mil film and 30 minutes 25 mil film the part to part dimensional consistency using these printed laminations has been documented a ternes registration and optimeasure system was used to make these measurements after forming the average part to part dimensional consistency was 2 8 mil with a standard deviation of 3 2 mil the upper specification limit provided by the imd film customer is 15 7 mil over a 10 inch length a 4 u2033 u00d7 6 u2033 laminated film sample was decorated and formed as in example 5 after placement into the mold of an injection molding machine a pull tab was taped onto the exposed surface this tab was used for adhesion testing once the multi layer printed film was molded.
