—  Mimaki debuts its most productive sublimation transfer printer to date, plus two other new innovations. The Tiger600-1800TS, is a roll-to-roll inkjet machine that Mimaki said “has been designed to accelerate the analogue to digital transformation within the textile printing industry”.The machine boasts a maximum printing speed of 550sqm/hr – 43% faster than the previous model – due to its renovated high-speed printhead and Mimaki’s proprietary image quality enhancement technologies. The machine size is half the size of the previous system, with the paper mounting and winding system both located at the back of the machine.  Mimaki announced its new Textile Pigment Transfer Printing System, and the Neo-Chromato Process. The Textile Pigment Transfer Printing System is said to minimise water usage and simplify the printing workflow. The system comprises three elements: the textile pigment Ink; the transfer system; and textile pigment transfer paper Texcol. The paper allows for transferring a digital print using an environmentally friendly three-step transfer process to create a vibrant application on a wide range of materials, including natural fibres.
