What’s DTF Printing?
DTF’s reliability and affordability have made it a very popular choice in many studios and organisations. DTF (Direct To Film) allows you to transfer printed images to fabric or other substrates with a hot pressing method. In the above example, the PET heat transfer film is used as the printing consumables. To print the pattern using the special DTF Printer, then transfer it to a hot pressing machine that can transfer on any surface.
There is a difference between DTF AND DTG
DTF and DTG are two different processes. DTG prints on clothing while DTF transfers on clothing via DTF Film using a heat press. DTG works only with cotton fabrics. DTF, however, is compatible for all surfaces.
The Advantages of DTF
About DTF, Mr. Zhu, an engineer of A-SUB®, said that compared with the DTG process that was used before, the advantages of DTF are overwhelming. DTF’s color saturation is superior to DTG, judging by its effect on similar transferred clothes. DTF can also be used for batch printing and is cheap, so you don’t have to sacrifice cost-efficiency.
DTF is a brand new method of transferring. Many questions regarding the limit of fabric and color are solved by DTF film. With DTF film, people don’t need to worry about the colors and fabrics of the substrates during the process of transferring. DTF film offers more options for transferring, and can save you more time and money. DTF transfer is also more beautiful and bright.
