DTF Printer is the next best solution in the field of textiles
Discussion directly to the film (DTF, White Ink Digital Painting) printing and DTG (directly to clothing, direct printing) printing caused a question: "What is the advantage of DTF technology?" High -quality full -size printing products with very soft feel, but DTF printing definitely has some advantages, making it a perfect supplement to your clothing printing business.
Direct film printing includes printing the design to a special thin film, coating the powder adhesive and melting it to the printing film, and then pressed the design on clothing or goods. You will need to transfer the film and hot -melt powder, as well as the software to create a print -no other special equipment is required! Below, we will discuss the seven advantages of this new technology.
1. Applicable to multiple materials
Although it is best to print directly on clothing printing on 100% cotton, DTF is suitable for many different clothing materials: cotton, nylon, treated leather, polyester, 50/50 blended, and light and dark fabrics. Transfer can even be applied to different types of surfaces, such as luggage, shoes, even glass, wood and metal! You can expand your inventory by applying your design to various products by using DTF.
2. No pre -processing
If you already have a DTG printer, then you may be very familiar with the pre -processing process (let alone dry time). The hot -melt capacity applied to DTF transfer to the print directly into the material, which means that it does not require pre -processing.
3. Save white ink water
DTF requires less white ink -about 40% white, while DTG printing requires 200% white. White ink is often the most expensive, because it uses more and the pigment is titanium oxide, so reducing the number of white ink used for printing can save a lot of money.
4. More durable than DTG printing
It is undeniable that DTG printing is soft and almost no feel, because the ink is directly applied to the clothes. Although DTF prints the soft hand that is not bragged with DTG, the transfer is more durable. Directly transferred to the film and washed well, and very flexible -this means that they will not crack or peel off, which is very suitable for heavy use items.
5. Easy to apply
Printing to film transfer means that you can place the design on the surface that is difficult to touch or awkward. If the area can be heated, you can apply DTF design! Because you only need to heated to adhere to the design, you can even sell the printed transfer directly to your customers, and allow them to place the design on any surface or item they choose without special equipment!
6. Fast production process
Because you can save the steps of pre -processing and drying clothing, the production time can be significantly shortened. This is a good news for one -time or small orders that cannot be profitable.
7. Help make your inventory more diverse
Although a bunch of most popular designs are printed on each size or color clothing may not be feasible, you can print the popular design in advance and use very small space to store it through DTF. Then you can prepare your best -selling products at any time so that you can apply to any clothing as needed!
Although DTF printing still cannot replace DTG, DTF can become an important supplement to your business. There are many reasons.
