A3 Sheet Heat Transfer PET Film DTF Digital Printer With White Ink
What is DTF ink?
DTF printer which mean "Direct To Film".This technique consists in printing your image directly on a film then transfer it to textile ,For example cotton, polyester, fleece, jeans, etc whatever the color. Although at first it might seem that DTF printing is a transation of Transfer, it nevertheless requires a special textile inkjet printer equipped with white channels. This allows quality printing, fast (no need to stay behind the printer), profitable (cost less expensive than DTG printing (Direct to Garnement), allowing positioning that other processes do not allow (printing on pockets, sleeves, personalized labels integrated into the fabric).
DTF Printing Process | Making the DTF Transfer
Step 1: Print on the Film
Insert the PET film in the printer trays.Hit Print.The inkjet printer will print “direct to film”, transferring the image onto your PET film.Be careful not to smudge the print when you remove it from the tray!
Step 2: Spread the Powder
This step is the application of hot-melt powder on the film that has the printed image on it.You have to apply the powder while the print is still wet!
Make sure and spread the powder evenly.Normally you would keep a tray next to the printer, sprinkle the power onto the web print, then seasaw back and forth until it covers the wet ink. Then CAREFULLY shake off the excess.Alternately, one can use automated shakers available for busier custom t-shirt shops.
Step 3: Melt the Powder
Just like the description indicates, your next step is to actually melt the powder in place.The most common way to do this is just to put the direct to film DTF transfer in an oven for about 2 minutes.Alternatively, if you’re already in the custom t-shirt business doing DTG or vinyl or white toner printer transfers you can use your heat press. Just make sure you are hovering and not applying any pressure. Or that the top of the press isn’t in contact with the transfer at all.There are no times and temperatures for curing DTF transfers here on purpose. It’s always best to check with the manufacturer!
Step 4: Pre-Pressing the T-Shirt
It doesn’t have to be a t-shirt of course. But whatever you’re going to apply your DTF transfer to should be completely smooth. Any wrinkles will show up in the print!
