Behold! Here’s another ‘DT’ acronym to remember—DTE for Direct-to-Emroidery. It’s a quite ingenious move by Brother, using its existing GTXpro DTG (Direct-to-Garment) print technology and its vast knowledge of sewing machines to embroider a white-thread image and then overprint it in colours. Brother International Corporation, a leading innovator in home and business technologies, has announced a significant advancement in garment decoration with the introduction of Direct-to-Embroidery (DTE) capabilities for its GTXpro series printers.
This groundbreaking technology seamlessly integrates embroidery with digital printing, offering a powerful on-demand solution for garment decorators. The Brother DTE system empowers creators with a streamlined workflow. Embroiderers can first create their designs using white polyester thread, followed by a wash-resistance pretreatment. The fabric is then transferred to the Brother GTXpro DTG printer. Using a high-resolution camera, the DTE system precisely aligns (registers) the embroidery with the remaining artwork for a flawless final product.
