Mimaki Sells 300 Txf150-75 DTF Printers In One Year Of Launch
Mimaki Europe said its first DTF (Direct to Film) printer, the TxF150-75, has surpassed the milestone of 300 units sold across EMEA, since its launch in February 2023.
“With the highest sales in the UK, France, Italy, Iberia and the DACH region, this wide-spread adoption of the TxF150-75 demonstrates the quality of the printer,” Mimaki added in a report.
According to Mimaki, the TxF150-75 offers a solution to common DTF issues, such as poor ink ejection and white ink clogging, through its built-in circulation system and degassed ink pack.
With the nozzle check unit (NCU) and nozzle recovery system (NRS), the TxF150-75 provides an efficient printing process with minimal need for intervention, filling the gap market for a reliable DTF solution.
“Surpassing 300 orders of the TxF150 is a significant milestone. We have seen the impact DTF is having on the market and wanted to offer a solution that excelled in usability, reliability, and quality,” Arjen Evertse, General Manager Sales, Mimaki Europe said.
“The Tx150-75 provides all of these benefits, but its popularity is also due to its suitability for those introducing DTF technology to their production capabilities or those who already have an in-house business producing smaller run jobs,” Evertse added.
Mimaki also launched the TxF300-75 in August 2023, which features all the same capabilities of the TxF150-75 but has a maximum print speed that is three times faster.
“We are seeing significant interest in this system as well, with already over 100 orders to date, especially among established DTF application suppliers who are printing high volumes,” Evertse stated.
DTF printing has had a big impact on the apparel industry due to its versatility to print on a range of materials and the quicker delivery times achievable compared to other printing processes.
Mimaki’s commitment to innovation, collaboration and sustainability all contributed to ensuring this new DTF technology portfolio from Mimaki is as robust and well received as it is.
At 80cm in width, both Mimaki DTF models are 20cm wider than the industry standard, which is matched by the Adkins post-press powder shaker cure system.
“This ensures customers have a complete DTF solution that can print larger garments with less waste and quicker production times, allowing for a more cost-effective process,” Mimaki too stated.
