Epson SureColor F7270 – Máy in chuyển nhiệt khổ 1m6 chất lượng cao

Khi dòng máy Epson SureColor Fabric DS được phát hành lần đầu tiên, nó đại diện cho một cuộc cách mạng; được thiết kế từ nền tảng cho Dye Thăng hoa, nó cung cấp một trong những nền tảng sản xuất một nhà cung cấp chìa khóa trao tay đầu tiên. Ngày nay, nó tiếp tục dẫn đầu với chất lượng hình ảnh có thể dự đoán, phù hợp và vượt trội được tăng cường với một loạt các mô hình để phù hợp với các yêu cầu sản xuất khác nhau. F7200 kết hợp đầu ra định dạng rộng với chi phí vận hành thấp và hoạt động cuộn để cuộn hiệu quả. Nó phù hợp với sản xuất quần áo, biển hiệu mềm, và vải in. Các bản in được thực hiện trên giấy sau đó được chuyển (thăng hoa) thông qua một máy ép nhiệt lên vật liệu có chứa một cơ sở polyester hoặc đã được xử lý trước bằng polyester.

When the Epson SureColor Fabric DS series was first released it represented a revolution; designed from the ground up for Dye Sublimation, it provided one of the first turn-key single-vendor production platforms. Today it continues to lead the way with predictable, consistent and superior image quality that is augmented with a range of models to suit different production requirements. The F7270 combines wide format output with low running costs, and efficient roll to roll operation. It suits production of clothing, soft signage, and printed fabrics. Prints are made on paper which is then transferred (sublimated) via a heat press onto material that contains a polyester base or has received a polyester pre-treatment.

The SC-F7270 is designed to operate in conjunction with a calendar style heat press. It combines Epson’s advanced heat-free PrecisionCore™ print head with UltraChrome^® DS ink, a Continuous Ink Supply System (CISS), 64" wide print engine with media output heater, and high precision Auto Take-Up. The head enables high resolution output with adjustable dot sizing, precise ink density and placement control. The ink supports a wide range of industry standard transfer media with output that is not only cost-effective but has predictable and precise colour. The engine, supply system and ATU all work together to facilitate continuous roll-to-roll printing at speeds up to 58.9m²/hr for an efficient production process.

QUALITY RESULTS AT HIGH SPEED

The SureColor F7270 is built on a robot-assembled chassis that is laser welded for exceptional strength and rigidity to ensure accurate tracking with a strengthened attachment to the Substrate Support System to ensure minimum movement and noise. It incorporates Epson's advanced heat-free PrecisionCore™ Thin Film print head with micro-fine nozzles that support adjustable high resolution imaging with pin-point positional accuracy and outstanding uniformity. Variable-size Droplet Technology enables enhanced half-tones and precise ink density control for superior results with minimum consumption. The printer has a standard print mode for normal high speed output and a new HQ MODE for premium fabric and solid surface work with super-fine detail and exceptional colour gradation.

Epson UltraChrome DS Ink is designed to enable production of a wide range of goods from material and clothing, to soft signage and banners, customised surface treatments and merchandise. It provides vibrant and intense colour that adheres quickly, transfers smoothly and provides excellent light and wash fastness. When used in conjunction with the hardware for which it was developed, it produces superior output with lower production costs, and enhanced mechanical durability. The ink is resistant to damage through abrasion and perspiration. When applied to polyester fabrics it conforms to the latest Oeko-Tex Eco Passport^® standard and certified safe for use by adults, children and babies². It supports a wide range of common low-cost transfer media and for premium work Epson offers a range of quality paper. Printers can be configured with a choice of flexible Bk or performance HDk ink sets. The HDk set incorporates a new black that has an increased particle density with an extremely neutral tint for superior colour intensity and precision. The HDk ink offers the added opportunity of reduced ink consumption.³

EFFICIENT WORKFLOW

The SureColor F7270 has been designed for roll to roll production. It features a media loading system that can be managed by a single operator with strengthened attachments for rolls up to 40Kg, in a variety of thicknesses, lengths and widths. It has an integrated media output dryer with adjustable temperature control and an advanced Auto Take-Up (ATU) with precision tracking and Automatic Tension Control (ATC)⁴. Once a roll is printed it can be unloaded quickly and mounted onto a calendar-style transfer press for rapid production with an outstanding finished quality.

The Fabric series has been designed for consistent, reliable and cost-effective operation. The F7200 features a Continuous Ink Supply System with enlarged easy-fill holes and 1.5L tanks that can be configured for either the standard Bk ink set or new HDk ink set. Each tank incorporates a buffer for resource scheduling and can be refilled while printing continues using inexpensive 1L packs. The printer incorporates an e-mail system which can be configured to send status and error notifications to operators located on and/or off-site. The printer can be managed via a front panel LCD with in-built help, or remotely via supplied utility software. The engine features low power consumption with sleep and stand-by modes that further reduce costs in environments with fluid workflow.

EASY TO INSTALL & CONFIGURE

Dye sublimation offers significant benefits over traditional screen printing. Digital image processing enables more precise control with duplication that has higher consistency. It is considerably quicker and less expensive for short to medium production runs, requires less labour, and involves less wastage. Printing is mess free and production can occur in a relatively small amount of space. Job turnaround is faster and repeat runs can be undertaken at the push of a button. While prints can only be transferred (sublimated) onto fabric with a polyester base they can also be applied to other materials like metals, plastics and foam that will accept a polyester spray and withstand the heat and pressure of the transfer process. In this method items such as wall decorations, furniture finishes, phone covers and even footwear ('thongs') can be produced.

The SureColor F7270 runs off a standard 240V power supply and can be driven by a moderately powered PC. The printer ships complete with Epson Edge Print software that is easy to use and incorporates a high precision Adobe Postscript engine for quality imaging of PS, EPS, PDF, TIFF, JPEG and PNG files. Edge Print provides all the functionality required to preview and process images with basic functions such as copy, position, trim and nest, as well as advanced tiling, step and repeat. For performance users the printer can be also ordered with the latest Ergosoft Sublimation software in either the basic Essential or advanced Production editions.
