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
• Both inks were run on the same printer. • 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.
