Durst releases new textile dye sub printer

Durst has announced its line-up of textile printers for the Heimtextil show, including a new model, the Rhotex 180 TR. This is an industrial dye sub transfer printer that is suitable for polyester and polyester blends. It has a maximum print width of 1850 mm and is equipped with the newly developed Durst QuadroS Printheads. The system has a maximum resolution of 1,200 dpi and a maximum production speed of 200sqm per hour.

It uses a specially formulated water-based dye sublimation ink, which Durst claims is free of odours, skin-friendly and free of any volatile organic compounds (VOC). The printer system is classified for all current transfer papers and quality levels.There’s no need for pre- and post-treatment of the textile fabric and no further investments such as a washing installation. Likely applications include sports wear, home textiles and soft-signage.

Christoph Gamper, CEO of Durst Phototechnik AG, explained: “The new Rhotex 180 TR enables us to expand our range of potential customers by providing uncomplicated access to digital textile production.”

You can license the articles from Printing and Manufacturing Journal to reproduce in other publications. I generally charge around £150 per article but I’m open to discussing this for each title, particularly for publishers that want to use multiple stories. I can provide high res versions of images for print publications.

I’m used to working with overseas publishers and am registered for VAT with the UK’s HMRC tax authority but obviously won’t charge VAT to companies outside the UK. You can find further details and a licensing form from this page, or just contact me directly here.
