Velotex Introduces New Direct to Textile Printers
Thursday 01st of November 2007 08:30:29 PM
Velotex recently introduced its new line of direct to textile and dye sublimation ink jet printers for consumer and commercial use. These printers include a patented mechanical system and built-in heating element that dries ink very quickly."Dye sublimation equipment and consumables are an important part of our business. Production speed, trouble free manufacturing processes and innovative applications are the key to competing in today's textile industry. I instructed our distribution division to search for cost effective and innovative products that reduce waste, improve productivity and give customers a competitive edge against foreign competition for the largest growing segments of the industry, which are textiles, tradeshow, flags and banner markets. The Velotex direct to textile system has exceeded my expectations," said Michael Choo, CEO of PrintVillage, Inc.
Velotex has released two versions of their new ink jet printers, the DS and the DP. While there are many similarities between each, the DP model is more suited for printed T-shirts and other clothing made from cotton, linen, and silk.
In addition to being to print on both treated and untreated fabrics, the new printers can be left unattended while printing. This makes it easier to for t-shirt printing companies to run their businesses. These new printers are also excellent for producing smaller run. In the past, smaller printing companies had to limit the minimum number of pieces they would print because the costs were too high. Now, companies can bring in more business and not have to limit the number of runs when printing t-shirts, jackets, and other items.

Good all round. Will order again.
the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
