The textile supply chain is an international market and so Durst presents the latest additions to its digital textile print portfolio at various international trade fairs.
For the European market, Durst presents itself as a Gold-Sponsor at the International Federation of Textile Chemists and Colorists (IFATCC) Congress in Budapest/Hungary.The Euro-Asian market will be addressed in Istanbul/Turkey, where Durst exhibits its latest developments at the International Textile Machinery (ITM) 2013 from 29. May – 01. June. This is followed by the ShaighaiTex, a trade fair for the Asian market from 10.-13. June.
The focus of attention is the new High Performance Production Machine Kappa 180 V2. Since the introduction of the Kappa 180 at the ITMA 2011, Durst has further developed the inkjet technology for different textile applications, in close cooperation with its customers. The Kappa 180 V2 now features the latest V2 printhead technology, where the colors are aligned symmetrically (opposing and mirrored) on the 8-channel-printheads. This ensures precise application of color, even for a bi-directional print process. It also eliminates streaking, as is common with conventional, asymmetrically aligned printheads at high speed.
Regardless of the print direction, the color channel is always in a perfect position to optimize the reproduction of designs with intricate color gradation or delicate patterns. The color conformity across the entire print width is maintained, without reducing production speed. Together with the Kappa 180 V2, Durst also offers a powerful dryer-unit, specially developed for knitwear. With the reformulated and GOTS-certified reactive ink system, Durst expands its application of reactive inks to include silk and polyamide. This enables the production of cotton, linen, viscose, silk and polyamide, all on the same machine. In addition to its flexibility, the Durst Kappa 180 V2 provides an industrial production capacity of 580m2/ hour and a maximum print quality of 1000 dpi.
