An automated method of decorating a substrate comprising a plurality of articles and a suitable automated production line are described. The method includes the steps of: continuously feeding the substrate and heat release decals on a decal carrier to a laminating station; applying heat to the decal carrier so as to simultaneously release the decal from the carrier and deposit the decal on an exposed face of the substrate continuously passing through the laminating station; transferring a decal-deposited substrate to a decal- securing oven; and slowly heating the substrate to a predetermined temperature so as to remove all binding agents from the decal and to fix the decal to the substrate thereby decorating the substrate.

L'invention concerne un procédé automatisé permettant de décorer un substrat constitué de plusieurs articles. L'invention concerne également une chaîne de fabrication automatisée adaptée à ce procédé. Le procédé de cette invention consiste: à diriger en continu le substrat et les décalcomanies, libérables sous l'effet de la chaleur et situés sur un support de décalcomanies, vers un poste de lamification; à appliquer de la chaleur sur ce support de décalcomanies afin de retirer simultanément chaque décalcomanie de ce support pour ensuite les déposer sur une surface exposée dudit substrat, lequel traverse le poste de lamification en continu; à transférer un substrat, sur lequel on a déposé un décalcomanie, vers un four permettant de fondre ce décalcomanie dans ce substrat; et enfin à chauffer progressivement ledit substrat jusqu'à une température prédéterminée, afin d'éliminer tous les agents de liaison du décalcomanie et de fixer celui-ci au substrat, de manière à décorer ce dernier.
