Discover the new TS200-1600 and the TX330 Series from Mimaki: Redefining Entry-Level Excellence
Mimaki's new TS200 represents a paradigm shift in dye-sublimation printing. Building upon the foundation of the TS100, this entry-level printer delivers high quality print with a significantly wider colour gamut, including orange, violet, and fluorescent colours that were previously unattainable at this price point.
The TS200's single-head design achieves faster print speeds while maintaining exceptional quality, making it equally suitable for educational institutions and established commercial operations. More importantly, its affordability removes the traditional barrier between aspiration and acquisition, enabling businesses to diversify their offerings without overwhelming capital investment.
The Mimaki TX330 Series uses an advanced hybrid technology to enable the use of pigment textile inks (for direct fabric printing) or dye sublimation inks (for transfer printing onto polyester) from a single machine. This functionality allows users to switch between ink types by easily changing the printing mechanism and ink sets to accommodate a wide range of applications, from apparel to soft signage, on various fabric types. This versatility not only enhances operational efficiency but also ensures businesses can adapt swiftly to evolving market demands and creative opportunities.
Explore the TRAPIS: The Transfer Pigment Solution
The Transfer Pigment System (TRAPIS) fundamentally challenges how we think about textile printing. This waterless technology eliminates the environmental burden of traditional processes while delivering superior quality across natural, synthetic, and blended fibres.
The two-step process—printing onto special transfer paper with the TS330 printer and subsequent calender transfer—streamlines production workflows dramatically. By removing the need for steaming and washing, TRAPIS doesn't just improve efficiency; it transforms the entire production paradigm.
Driving Sustainable Advancements in Textile Printing
At the heart of modern textile innovation lies a commitment to sustainability. The TRAPIS system exemplifies this by reducing environmental impact through its waterless and chemical-free process. By eliminating the need for traditional steaming and washing, this cutting-edge solution minimises waste and conserves resources, setting a new benchmark for sustainable textile production. With TRAPIS, businesses can not only enhance their operational efficiency but also align with global sustainability goals, creating value that is both forward-thinking and environmentally responsible.
