In 2020, for the digital printing industry, the term "DTF" continues to be popular. As we all know, the production process of traditional lettering film and film transfer is complicated and inefficient. Digital film transfer has the characteristics of "short cycle and fast delivery". Once launched, it brings a different experience to the personalized customization market. After three years of development, it is now possible to achieve fully automated operation, with a small footprint and simple operation, and has a high market penetration rate.

Textile pigment ink (DTF ink) is suitable for a wide range of materials. It can be said that it is one kind of ink for all fabrics. All fabrics such as cotton, polyester-cotton, polyester-nylon, cotton-nylon, polyester, nylon, silk, etc. can be printed with Jetextile® textile pigment ink (DTF ink).

1. The direct to film (DTF) process is simple and easy to copy, and has strong popularity.

All fashion must be simple and easy to copy. The process of paint heat transfer is that ink is printed directly on the film, color and white are sprayed at the same time, and both dark and light fabric samples can be transferred, which is simple and easy to operate.

2. Low investment threshold and rapid market development.

Film heat transfer equipment (DTF system) mainly includes three major parts: printer, powder shaker, and heat press machine. The overall printing solution cost is low, the investment cost is low. So the whole popularization is developing very fast.

3. Strong flexibility and reduced inventory costs.

In the past, when T-shirts were sold on the market, the finished products often had to be printed in advance and kept in stock. However, now we use the method of heat transfer (DTF printing system). We only need to store the transfer film according to market conditions. When customers place orders, they will be processed into finished T-shirts. In this way It greatly reduces inventory costs and improves capital turnover rate and usage efficiency. Moreover, new products can be launched in a timely manner according to changes in market popular elements at any time to satisfy a broad customer base and meet the personalized requirements.

In order to meet the continuous upgrading and demand of the market, Jettextile DTF ink upgraded again，and the 5th generation DTF ink was lanuched. After continuous improvement, the dispersion and suspension of the DTF ink has been improved, thereby avoiding flocculation, sedimentation, and deterioration caused by long-distance ocean transportation or long-term storage, resulting in customers being unable to use it normally. It solves the common problem of oil return on printed film, improves the feel and smoothness, and is suitable for fast and large-ink printing with multi-nozzle machines. At the same time, the covering power of white ink is improved.

DTF Film Transfer Printing Process

Why Print Head Clogging Occur?

Print head clogging is the main factor affecting the DTF transfer printing quality and yield. The followings are several major factors that can easily cause print head clogging:

1. Ink quality 

Inferior quality ink cannot be used. Ink that is too thick or contains impurities will clog the print head.

2. Ink drying 

When the ink dries prematurely in the print head, it will affect the normal ink jetting.

3. lack of maintenance

DTF printing machines is precision machines and require regular maintenance to keep the machine running in good condition. Failure to clean the print head or replace the ink cartridge promptly can cause debris and dried ink to accumulate in the print heads, causing clogging.

4. Environmental factors 

When the temperature is too high and the humidity is too low, the ink will dry too quickly, causing the nozzle holes to be blocked and the ink may break. It may also cause the ink itself to evaporate, eventually causing its viscosity to become high and clogging the nozzle.

5. Ink system problems 

Problems with the ink system can also cause clogged nozzles. For example, a clogged filter or malfunctioning pump can prevent ink from flowing through the print head.

How to prevent print head clogging

1. Use high quality

DTF ink please use high quality ink that is compatible with your DTF printer.

2. Clean the print head regularly

It is recommended to clean the print head once a week. When cleaning, use a special cleaning solution or distilled water for white ink heat transfer machines, and follow the machine maintenance instructions to do the cleaning work.

3. Use a humidifier

Printing under a working environment humidity between 40% and 60% is best. A humidifier can be used to maintain ideal humidity levels in the room, which can effectively prevent the ink from drying out too quickly.

Will white ink affect the use of print head?

YES!

1. Print head clogged

White ink is thicker and heavier than other inks and can easily cause print head clogging. As the white ink dries in the head, it hardens and prevents other ink from flowing through.

2. Print head damaged

White ink causes greater wear and tear on the printhead due to its thickness and weight. Over time, damage to the print head may occur.

3. Mixed ink

White ink sometimes mixes with other inks in the ink system, causing color contamination and affecting printing quality.
