d.gen company located in Seoul, South Korea is a company that produces a series of digital printing machines, the company's model TX V8 74" Teleios series of digital printing machines can print widths up to 187 cm, and now, this type of printing machine has a new The characteristics of the digital jet printing machine make it more efficient. The V8 printing machine currently has 8 print heads instead of 6, which makes it easier to change colors when printing. The Teleios V8 digital jet printing machine uses a 2 4 color scheme, with There are suitable dye reservoirs, which store about 1 liter of dyes of different colors respectively. According to reports, such a device does not need to manually add dyes or replace dye reservoirs during the production process, and the seasoning time and temperature should be consistent with the speed of inkjet and printing. suitable.
From start to finish, printing and dressing can be done simultaneously. There is an effective external extraction system directly connected to the printing machine, which can be extracted for a period of time for seasoning, which prevents the evaporation of dye vapors. This system also improves production efficiency and is expected to enable printing speeds of up to 50m2hr. d.gen's Teleios TX 100" digital printing machine still has 6 print heads, the width can be up to 260 cm, and the 16 color or 44 color scheme can be used.
Currently, the Virtu7200 print head of Leggett Platt Digital Technologies in the United States comes with a new automatic loading system that will simplify the fabric cross-cutting process. In addition, the print head is also equipped with DirectUV, which can print directly on fabrics instead of the usual transfer printing paper. The company also supplies finished VirtuPrint fabrics.
In advertising textiles, digital printing technology has become a relatively mature technology, while in wearing textiles, digital printing is still limited to samples, disposable overalls and short processes. In the next few years, the quality of digital printing will further improve and the cost will be further reduced significantly. On an ordinary roller printing machine, if each color can be printed 300 meters, it will be a major technological breakthrough in the printing industry. The good news is that printers that can do this already exist, such as the Reggiani printer from HP Scitex.
Some small-width desktop printers (up to 3.3 meters wide) for the advertising banner industry are selling very well.
Compared with traditional printing, digital inkjet printing has the advantages of high production process flexibility, good reproducibility, high precision, adaptable to the marketing system of small batch and fast delivery, clean production requirements and remote ordering. Make digital jet printing a key research object. Textile digital inkjet printing not only has strict requirements on ink and computer software development, but also on printers, pre-processing equipment, post-processing equipment, fabric grade and width. When companies invest in inkjet printing, they should consider the cost of materials such as ink, chemicals, fabrics, and training costs for employees.
