You need a massive amount of heat to make the glass safe and strong, but that same heat can absolutely wreck your ink. One wrong move and your crisp lines start blurring or the colors shift. It&rsquo;s a headache. The secret is all in how you handle the infrared (IR) heat.</p> <h2 id="keeping-the-ink-intact">Keeping the Ink Intact</h2> <p>Most standard furnaces blast the surface of the glass way too hard. By the time the center of the glass is actually hot, the surface has already peaked, and your ink is scorched. We handle this by using short-wave IR lamps. Instead of just searing the top, these lamps reach deeper into the glass. It means the glass hits its softening point without turning your printed design into a smudge. But you can&rsquo;t just crank it up. If you hit the glass too fast, the ink literally boils. Go too slow? You&rsquo;re wasting time and you might not get the right stress levels for a safe break pattern. It&rsquo;s a delicate balance.</p>
