Mimaki will debut its entry-level sublimation inkjet printer, the Mimaki TS30-1300, at FESPA 2017. The TS30-1300 is a 1.3-meter-wide roll-to-roll sublimation transfer inkjet printer for the textile industry. It enables users to print their designs on demand at speeds up to 20 meters per hour.
The TS30-1300 is aimed at in-house production of high-mix low-volume printed products, including prototyping of textiles or sports apparel, or creation of customised items. Original full-colour images can be printed on polyester fabrics, now widely used in the textile and apparel industry. This process can be used for clothing, bags, scarves, tights, socks and more. One-off designs for items like player numbers and names on sports uniforms can also be created. Other uses include polyester-based banners, towels, t-shirts, handkerchiefs, mouse pads, lanyards and cushions. In addition to textile-based products, the TS30-1300 can be used to create designs on polyester-coated mugs, glasses, coasters, etc.
