Case Study - DuPontTM Artistri® DTF Inks Partnering with OEMs to develop winning solutions
Background:
Success case in North America with CobraFlex developing
new solution for DTF
CobraFlex is an US based OEM that develops printers for DTF printing. CobraFlex and DuPont partnered to develop a new DTF system that could be a viable production solution for them.
From their experience with the Chinese inks’ alternatives in the market, they were looking for an ink set that could:
• Color match and high printing quality;
• Have high consistency in the print;
• Increase expiration window;
• Made in the USA inks;
• Reliable batch to batch color consistency.
Job test – comparison method

• Inks were loaded per manufacturer specification.
• Both inks were run with the same printer, film, powder and printheads.
• On-site technician profiled both films inks.
• Comparison was made on images the customer considers they’re most
challenging.
