What makes DTF PRO systems so cost effective?
DTF PRO has over a decade of experience manufacturing for other popular brands and distributors. Buying DTF PRO means buying manufacturer direct, without the markups that go into other brands due to marketing and distribution or due to fancy casings that often drive the price unnecessarily up (you could pay over $20,000 for similar systems from other UV printer providers).
This printer is capable of UVDTF ® ROLL Printing and Laminating - all in one!
What is UVDTF ® Printing?
UVDTF ® is a process by which you use this printer (or other UV printers that are capable of UV white/color and varnish printing) to print to UVDTF sheets. Instead of printing directly to hard objects (which could be limited in production environments, owing to only being able to print to 1 object at a time, or limited to materials that are not iregularly shaped), you can print insetad with your UV printer to UVDTF ® Sheets, 1 image at a time, or multiple images at a time, essentially creating a UV printed sticker sheet (with 1 or multiple images). Then simply peel and transfer your UV "stickers" to your hard objects. Great for irregular materials, curved materials, and ultra-tall or very large materials, that otherwise may not be possible to print directly to).
NOTE: While the UVDTF ® produced stickers are water-resistant and wear-resistant, they are not as resistant to the elements as direct to substrate UV printing.

- Print to A film (print with UV ink, and add a layer of varnish print for best results)
