A New Printing Method
Superior to the old method of Direct to Garment printing, Direct To Film Printing offers significantly more benefits and can add prints onto nearly any type of fabric.
The new process involves printing to a special transfer film then heat transferring the printed film onto textiles or solid substrate with an integrated lightweight powder adhesive.
This ensures that your print has a brilliant high contrast color, clean sharp edges, and details, as well as being machine washable and flexible, which is ideal for custom t-shirt makers to be confident that they will produce a long-lasting high-quality product for their customers.
With no cutting or weeding needed, direct to film printing means that there is less waste compared to other printing methods and it allows companies to run both small and large capacity orders.
Additionally, if you are using direct to film printing on popular or repeat items then you can always load up on prints and store the film without having to worry about the space or substrate cost of a pre-printed clothing line.
The process itself allows for the printed film to be easily cut apart to later press onto a variety of items and used for future garment prints.
The Direct to Film Process
The direct to film printing method has an easy to follow five step process that allows you to create a high quality and color rich print on a range of different materials.
The process is:
Artwork
First you need to design or import your chosen artwork into your favorite graphics program.
RIP
The RIP software will create the white mask which goes on top of your color ink areas.
Print
This step will print your artwork onto film by initially printing the color before backing it with white which makes it ready for the next part of the method.
Coat
Powdered adhesive is distributed over the surface, dusted off, and melted onto the printed film.
Press
When you are ready, heat press the film onto your textile, then peel back the empty film sheet. You will then have your beautiful, custom print ready to display in store and be enjoyed by your customers.
Axiom America offers both 14 inch and 24 inch printers that include an operation ready PC, design and RIPs software, as well as a variety of inks and installation.
