Roland is set to showcase its new Texart XT-640S-DTG printer at the FESPA global print expo in Madrid, Spain, from March 24-27, 2020, in booth (hall 7-C60). This latest addition to Roland’s Texart range is a multi-station direct-to-garment printer which prints full-colour graphics directly onto cotton-based T-shirts and apparel, quickly, and colourfully.
The Roland Texart range delivers reliable, high-quality output on-demand, enabling mass customisation of textile products. The new Texart XT-640S-DTG enables users to print durable, full-colour designs, photos, logos and text directly onto a wide range of cotton, cotton-rich and white polyester T-shirts and apparel. CMYK and high-density white sublimation inks achieve vibrant effects on white or coloured garments, all with a natural look and feel, according to Roland.
A T-shirt can be printed in as little as eight seconds, while the unique sliding baseplate/docking jig design allows different sizes of jigs to be combined for maximum versatility, especially on short production runs. The latest ErgoSoft Roland RIP with variable data and an auto-white function, makes direct-to-garment production extremely efficient.
“The new Texart XT-640S-DTG is another great example of the opportunities offered by Roland digital technology. Its speed, accuracy, and versatility makes it ideal for garment suppliers moving from screen printing to digital, those already running multiple direct-to-garment machines, brands bringing production in-house, garment embroidery businesses looking to diversify their product offering, and many more. The digital direct-to-garment printing market is set to grow and grow, and we’re looking forward to helping more of our customers join it,” Paul Willems, Roland’s director of business development and product management EMEA said.
