    Abstract: A mandrel wherein a portion of the mandrel body outer surface is conical; i.e., flared outwardly, is provided. In this configuration, the necked can is drawn against the conical portion of the mandrel body outer surface while a generally cylindrical portion of the mandrel body extends into the can. Further, the space between the cylindrical portion of the mandrel body and the can is pressurized so as to resist deformations in the can during the decorating process. In an exemplary embodiment, the mandrel includes an elongated mandrel body with an outer surface, a proximal, first end, a proximal medial portion, a distal medial portion, and a distal, second end and having an axis of rotation. The mandrel body outer surface includes an elongated conical portion; the mandrel body outer surface conical portion is disposed adjacently about the mandrel body first end.

    Abstract: A customization system for a tubular article of apparel includes a printing system for printing a graphic onto the tubular article. The customization system also includes a cylinder for holding the tubular article for printing a graphic upon the article. The cylinder can include one or more recesses in the outer surface of the cylinder to accommodate one or more regions of increased thickness on the tubular article. By providing recesses in the cylinder that correspond to the regions of increased thickness, the tubular article can present a substantially uniform flat surface for printing the graphic upon.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of using a combination permanent partial decoration and temporary decoration to mass customize refillable glass vessels. The method comprising: decorating a glass vessel with a permanent partial decoration, receiving the glass vessel at a filling facility, washing the glass vessel in caustic solution to remove presence of a temporary decoration, filling the glass vessel with a product contents, printing the temporary decoration on the glass vessel, distributing the glass vessel to a marketplace for use by a consumer, receiving the consumer used glass vessel at the filling facility, and recycling the glass vessel by returning to the step of washing. Other embodiments include not using the permanent partial decoration and printing the temporary decoration on the glass vessel, wherein at least some of the temporary decoration is printed on top of a background region to increase the luminance qualities of the temporary decoration.

    Abstract: By reducing a level difference between an overlapping portion and an ink layer in a portion in continuity with the overlapping portion, wrinkles caused duo to a neck-in processing are reduced, and a degradation of a film-strength in the overlapping portion is prevented. In a seamless can in which an ink layer is transferred onto a can body thereof by a curved surface printing, the ink layer which has been transferred, has an overlapping portion which is formed by an ink layer at a front-end portion and an ink layer a rear-end portion in a circumferential direction of the can body being overlapped mutually, and an ink area ratio for at least one of the ink layer at the front-end portion and the ink layer at the rear-end portion is smaller than an ink area ratio of a portion in continuity with the overlapping portion, excluding the overlapping portion.
