Double-sided Inkjet Printing for Narrow Fabrics with a Reduced Environmental Footprint.
ColorBoosterNF-DS X PERACTOJet®
The ColorBooster NF-DS impresses with its exceptional print performance and innovative vertical printing capabilities.
It also has the unique feature of printing front, back and tape edges simultaneously, achieving impeccable accuracy, consistency and print quality on all sides.
The ColorBooster NF-DS is equipped with industrial recirculation printheads, which can print up to four tapes in parallel.
The recirculation printheads keep the ink constantly circulating, preventing the ink from clogging any nozzles.
PERACTOJet® are water-based pigment inks with integrated binder capabilities, bypassing the need for a pre-or posttreatment process, on the majority of substrates.
Yet, they still achieve superior color properties compared to other pigment inks on the market.
PERACTOJet® enables a waterless printing process by eliminating washing and steaming processes from the production line, reducing the process to merely printing. pre-drying and curing:
PERACTOJet® inks even further simplify the production process and increase ease-of-use as they are suitable for both natural and synthetics fibers, as well as fiber blends.
In other words, only one ink and machine set up is required for the printing of a wide range of narrow textiles, increasing flexibility, efficiencies and time-to-market.
The ColorBooster NF-DS is equipped to handle both rigid and elastic narrow fabrics.
With it’s outstanding media transport system, the industrial printer can effortlessly manage the printing and handling of elastic tapes.
Furthermore, the machine is currently successfully utilized in the production of military webbings, with approved IRR specifications.
