What’s DTF Printing?
DTF has been a very popular choice in many studios and organisations due to its reliability, cost-effectiveness and affordability. DTF (Direct-to-Film) is a technique for transferring prints onto fabrics or other substrates via a hot pressing mechanism. This is the process where the printing consumables used are PET heat transfer films: New transferring supplies. First, print the pattern on a special DTF printer. Then, transfer the pattern to a hot press.
Difference between DTF and DTG
DTF and DTG are two different processes. DTG can be printed on clothing while DTF can be transferred to clothing using DTF Film and a heat press. DTG is not suitable for cotton fabrics. DTF is compatible with any surface.
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 identically transferred clothes. DTF is also affordable and can be used in batch printing.
DTF is an innovative method for transferring. This solves many problems related to the limitations of fabrics and colors. 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 transferring has a more beautiful and vivid effect.
