In the booming industry of thermal sublimation transfer printing, you must know the heat transfer printing machine in this process. There are two main types of digital heat transfer printing : digital direct heat printing , digital rotary heat transfer printing . Do you know their differences? If you don’t learn about it clearly! Read the following and I will share you the differences between digital direct printing and roller heat transfer printing. And you will kown the two types heat transfer printing machine’s differences!
1. Digital direct printing is to send the patterns need to be printed into the computer by high-resolution scanners, SLR cameras, or card digital cameras. Then print the patterns onto the fabric by digital printers with in-built control software to form the digital patterns, and solid color after printing.
2. Digital roller heat transfer printing, same as digital direct printing, is to send the patterns need to be printed into the computer by high-resolution scanners, SLR cameras, or card digital cameras, then form the patterns by in-built software. The difference is—-digital direct printing is to print the ink directly onto the materials. But digital transfer printing is more complicated: to printing the patterns onto the specified papers, dry ( or blow-dry by fan ), then get into transfer printing process by cover the papers on the materials needed to be print, heating and pressurizing, to vaporise the ink to the fabric, to finish the whole printing process, but no solid color necessary afterward.
3.Suited fabric for digital direct printing: in general, any light color ( include white ) is suitable, but some fabrics need pretreatment before printing, aging or washing after printing ( for example, 100% cotton reactive digital printing ), some only just need to be dry to solid color, but the feel is not so good.
4.Suited material for digital transfer printing: chemical fiber knitted fabrics, for example, PE, P/C ( polyester is the best )
The strengths of the digital printing: Whether it is digital direct printing or digital transfer printing,
After printing the precision is very high ,the image shows fine,having clear architecture and many porting references. Due to its printing way doesn’t need to plate making,it can directly reflects the:fast speed,easy to operate etc. The ink and the printing process, ensure environment protection free from contamination. It’s more suitable for more patterns,more sizes and more colors printing simultaneously(There is no limit to the color and quantity)
Okay, above of all, I believe that you have learned about the differences of oil drum heat press machine and direct heat press and known how to choose heat transfer printing machine for your business!
