What fabric can be printed with a digital direct jet printer

In fact, many people want to have a machine that can simultaneouslyRound bottle printerPrint all fabrics, that is, one ink can target all fabrics with good color and fastness. But there is no ink on the market that can print all fabrics, so there is no digital direct-injection printer that can print all fabrics without changing the ink.


In textile digital printing, a large number of nozzles of the digital direct-injection printing machine ensure high-quality pattern design and fast production speed. However, because the nozzle is too close to the fabric, some fabrics cannot be used for digital printing. For example, some off-line fabrics will come in contact with the nozzle and cause damage.


1. Cotton, linen, silk, viscose

There are two processes for digital printing on cotton, linen, silk and viscose, reactive digital printing and paint direct-injection printing. Reactive digital printing is directly sprayed on the fabric through a digital printing machine, but this fabric requires a treatment in the early stage, called sizing, or the color cannot be improved. Active digital printing is more cumbersome and requires pre-processing, printing, steaming, water-based, qualitative, etc.


2. Polyester chemical fiber

In the past few years, polyester has become an increasingly popular fabric in the fashion industry. However, the dispersion ink commonly used in polyester printing is not effective when used on high-speed digital printing machines. The typical problem isLuggage printerContaminated by ink flying ink.


3. Blended fabric

Blended fabric refers to a fabric composed of two different types of materials, which is a challenge for digital printing machines. In digital textile printing, one device can only use one type of ink.


4. Nylon

Nylon fabrics can not be dyed or printed in high temperature environments, so direct-jet printing is often used for printing, and acid dyes are also used. The difficulty of acid dyes is that the color is unstable after printing and the color fastness is not good. These problems have existed for a long time.

5. Wool

It is possible to use a digital printing machine to print on wool fabrics, but it depends on the type of wool fabric used. If you want to print on "fluffy" wool fabrics, it means that there are a lot of fluff on the surface of the fabric. Therefore, the nozzle must be as far away from the fabric as possible.


6. Silk

Another natural fiber suitable for digital textile printing is silk. Silk can be printed with reactive inks (better color fastness) or acid inks (broader color gamut).


anyway,Digital Direct Printing MachineThe cost of printing is still higher than that of ordinary printing, which determines that the digital direct-injection printing machine is more suitable for high-end products and high-value-added products. For example, digital printing just appeared suitable for many applications on real silk, this is the reason. However, nowadays chemical fiber fabrics are also used in many applications. The logic lies in the high processing cost& low white embryo price. Looking at the current trends in the fashion industry, chemical fiber fabrics, such as silk fabrics, are mostly used.
