DTF is a non-structured thermal transfer to any type of fabric. The sense of the technology is to transfer the image, previously printed on the film in a mirror image, to the T-shirt by means of a thermal press. Fixing takes place with the help of special glue applied manually, or with the help of a special shaking machine - repair uv printer.
This technology is one of the newest in the market of printing on T-shirts. Unlike expensive and non-problematic DTG printers, DTF equipment has a much lower cost of ownership and a lower cost of ink, which provides a cheaper cost of final products.
For DTF printing, there is no need to use a primer, as in DTG, which is very difficult to apply correctly by hand, which ensures almost complete absence of defects in this type of printing. You just need to print on the film and apply glue to the back of the printed image. Then the products are fixed in a thermal press and everything is a finished product.
