Roland DG announces new TY-300 DTF printer

Roland DG Corporation has announced a new TY-300 direct-to-film (DTF) production transfer printer. The new DTF printer is designed and engineered specifically for the decorated apparel market and more. The DTF transfer method is still a relatively new, but growing, method to create custom T-shirts, fabric items, and sportswear. After printing on a special film, hot-melt powder is applied and thermally melted, before the film is simply layered on fabric and heat-pressed. This method is becoming very popular because it can accommodate complex designs, without weeding, and can transfer to a wide range of materials including cotton, polyester, cotton polyester, denim, nylon, and rayon, as well as dark and light coloured materials.

According to a source, the newly launched Roland TY-300 raises the standard for DTF transfer printing. It combines high image quality, high productivity, and exceptional cost performance with the rich colours and excellent detailed expression required in the apparel business. Newly developed print heads in the printer allow for the precise expression of fine lines, small letters, and detailed designs, as well as photographs. It is equipped with the True Rich Color 3 print setting that creates beautiful output that achieves a unique combination of vividness and natural appearance in a single graphic.
