Direct-to-Film 24H2 Transfer Printer

Taking the fast fashion on demand market by storm, the Direct-to-Film 24H2 transfer printer has a whopping machine output that is up to FIVE TIMES faster than DTG machines which cost thousands of dollars more.

The Raw Machine Output (RMO) on the DTF is what makes this new technology so revolutionary.

You can produce brilliant full-color prints:

• On Virtually Any Garment
• In Virtually Any Placement
• Around 10 Seconds Press Time
• Through dozens of wash cycles

How Does DTF Printing Work?

The DTF-24H2 produces brilliant digital transfer sheets, handling everything from single color shirt labels to left chest logos to full-size prints. The DTF printer uses PET transfer film which is translucent so you can see the design underneath the film when you later heat-press it onto the garment.

The PET film has a thickness of around 0.75mm which allows for better transfer characteristics. The films used with the DTF-24H2 are both roll-fed and designed for a cold peel.

The powder adhesive coating is what gives DTF transfers their signature soft touch because it's moisture-seeking. It draws itself into the ink of the print and chemically bonds to form a strong permanent adhesive that sticks extremely strong to both cotton and polyester fibers.

What Can You Print with the DTF-24H2?

DTF transfers produced with the 24H2 can be applied to a wide range of products, including:

• T-Shirts
• Polos
• Sweatshirts

What Should You Purchase with your printer?

• Heat Press Machines - You will want a full-sized, dependable heat press. Our top five recommendations are:
  • ColDesiPRESS C20 Heat Press - Top Pick
  • ColDesiPRESS C16 Heat Press - Fan Favorite
  • Hotronix Fusion Professional Package - Best Deal
  • Hotronix Fusion Heat Press - Popular
  • Hotronix Auto Clam - Lowest Price
    
    Can you use another brand/style of heat press you already own?
    Yes, just be careful of one very important thing: you need to have even heat and pressure across the entire platen. Many 'knock off' heat presses save money in production by having a reduction in heating elements and limited quality control. We recommend the one above due to customers having the greatest success.
• Finishing Sheets - Use these to add the final finish to your t-shirt. Once the print is on the garment, press one last time with a finishing sheet to get a nice finish that looks great on a shirt. Once the print is on the garment, press one last time with a finishing sheet to get a nice finish that looks great on a shirt. (This is another product we have tested over and over again to find the perfect one.)
