Announced just a year ago, Mimaki's first DTF device, the TxF150-75, has surpassed 300 units sold across EMEA alone. The wide-spread adoption of the TxF150-75 demonstrates the rising popularity of the DTF printing method for heat transfered graphics onto garments and textiles.
Mimaki's TXF 150-75 has been a hit in the DTF textile transfer sector
Mimaki says the TxF150-75 offers a solution to common DTF issues, such as poor ink ejection and white ink clogging, through its built-in circulation system and degassed ink pack. Alongside other Mimaki core technologies, such as the nozzle check unit (NCU) and nozzle recovery system (NRS), the TxF150-75 provides an efficient printing process with minimal need for intervention, filling the gap in the market for a stable, reliable DTF solution. 
Mimaki expanded its DTF range in August 2023 with the faster TxF300-75, which features all the same capabilities of the TxF150-75 but has a maximum print speed that is three times faster. The '300' version has already sold over 100 units across EMEA.
DTF printing has had a big impact on the apparel industry due to its versatility to print on a range of materials and the quicker delivery times achievable compared to other printing processes. Mimaki’s commitment to innovation, collaboration and sustainability all contributed to ensuring this new DTF technology portfolio from Mimaki is as robust and well received as it is.
At 80cm in width, both Mimaki DTF models are 20cm wider than the industry standard. It is matched with an Adkins post-press powder shaker and cure system, to complete the DTF solution to print larger garments. Mimaki has also created its own range of Oeko-Tex Eco Passport certified water-based pigment inks (PHT50), supporting safety and environmental standards in line with Mimaki’s sustainability policies.
