The SinoColor DTF-800 is a high-productivity Direct-to-Film (DTF) garment printer designed for large-scale apparel production. It is an integrated system with a maximum printing width of 80 cm, which is designed to efficiently print two large t-shirt designs in a single row. The machine is available with 2, 3, or 4 Epson i1600 or i3200 printheads, capable of a maximum print resolution of 2400 dpi. This provides high-quality prints with sharp details and vibrant colours. Production speeds can reach up to 21 m2/h with four heads in draft mode.
The SinoColor DTF-800 utilises textile pigment inks and supports a range of colour configurations, including a CMYK+W setup and options for fluorescent colours for a wider gamut. The printer includes an automatic powder shaking and heating unit, which applies and cures the adhesive powder to the printed film in a single, automated process. This all-in-one design streamlines the workflow and enhances productivity. The machine also features a white ink circulation system to prevent pigment settling and a media tension system for accurate film feeding. High-quality components, such as Hiwin guide rails and Megadyne belts, are used to ensure precision and stability. An anti-collision system is also integrated to protect the printheads. The final cured film is then rolled onto a take-up system, ready for heat-pressing onto various fabrics.
