Description

The Heat Transfer Pigment Ink for Mimaki DTF Printers is specifically designed for use in Mimaki DTF printers to achieve vibrant and durable heat transfers.

Mimaki proudly holds the "ECO PASSPORT" certification from the OEKO-TEX® international association, certified through Nissenken Quality Evaluation Center, endorsing the eco-friendly attributes of PHT50, the heat transfer pigment ink designed exclusively for DTF applications.
Here are some key features and details about this ink:
  1. Degassed Aluminum Pack: The ink cartridges utilize the degassed aluminum pack method, which has been proven and used by Mimaki for over ten years. This method prevents oxygen and other gases from mixing with the color ink and white ink, reducing the risk of nozzle clogging and loss.

  2. Deaeration and Nozzle Clogging: The degassed aluminum pack design helps maintain the stability of the ink by preventing air bubbles from entering the ink pack. This minimizes the chances of nozzle clogging, ensuring consistent and reliable printing performance.

  3. Ecology and Economy: The use of the degassed aluminum pack not only benefits ink stability but also contributes to ecological and economical advantages. By reducing the amount of plastic used compared to ink bottles, it helps to minimize plastic waste.

  4. Ink Capacity: The ink cartridges come in different capacities:

    • Colors: 600ml
    • White: 500ml

With these capacities, you can expect extended printing runs without frequent cartridge changes, improving workflow efficiency.

What causes a DTF transfer to crack, peel, or have weak adhesion?

Weak adhesion can be causedby several factors, including:

  • Incomplete powder coverage
  • Incorrect curing temperature or time
  • Excess or insufficient heat press pressure
  • Incorrect pressing instructions
  • Moisture in the film, powder, or garment
  • Incompatible consumables
  • Removing the film at the wrong temperature

Confirm the instructions for your specific DTF film and use a properly operating heat press. A second finishing press may also improve the final surface and durability of the transfer.

What products are needed for a complete DTF printing system?

A complete DTF workflow generally includes:

Blue Ridge can help configure a complete system so the printer, shaker, consumables, ventilation, and heat press work together.

How often does a DTF printer need maintenance?

DTF printers require routine maintenance because white pigment can settle and ink can dry around the printhead, cap station, wiper, and ink-delivery components.

Both Mimaki and DCC DTF printers have systems that notify users when maintenance needs done and provides instructions that are simple and easy to follow.

Maintenance may include:

  • Nozzle checks
  • Printhead cleaning
  • Cap and wiper inspection
  • White ink circulation
  • Agitating white ink
  • Cleaning around the printhead
  • Replacing dampers, filters, caps, or wipers when necessary

Visit Blue Ridge University for educational maintenance resources.

What fabrics can be decorated with DTF transfers?

DTF transfers are commonly applied to cotton, polyester, and blended garments. They can also be used on many other compatible textiles and products that can withstand the required heat and pressure.

Always test unfamiliar, coated, heat-sensitive, or heavily dyed materials before production.
