High Performance Prints

Utilizing the latest high performance piezo print head technology, the DTG Viper is among the fastest direct to garment printers in the industry.  With an average print speed at 360x720dpi one pass printing to light coloured textiles will generate up to 70 prints (254mm x 305mm) per hour. (Dark garments needing white ink will require higher saturation of 1440 x 720dpi).  The DTG garment pallet system is truly unique on the DTG Viper and prints two garments at a time as standard. An optional 4 pallet assembly system is also available offering greater flexibility.  Simply drag and drop and place your designs from most file formats into our DTG-RIP templates - artwork is easily positioned with pin-point registration and achieved via a unique conveyor garment loading system.  The micro servo motor driven conveyor system is at the heart of the DTG Viper and produces perfect dot registration accurate to 0.017mm offering unprecedented superior commercial grade reliability.  It’s flexible - with your DTG Viper you can load garments that will auto register for perfect white and colour prints time and again and for ease of use finished garments can either be returned to the front of the machine (if you are operating in a tight area) or can be ejected to the rear of the printer for faster loading and unloading and all round production throughput.

New Printhead Technology

The DTG Viper features all new 8 channel piezo Print Head with ink repelling coating and constant re-circulation and pressurization.

• Print Head - Piezo, capable of handling 8 colours in either Dual CMYK or 4 channels of white plus CMYK.
• 1" inch wide high performance print head with 180 nozzles per channel.
• Adjustable pressure manifold coupled with pressure release damper/filter throughout the entire ink path.

With less clogging and starvation than opposition products, the DTG Viper delivers superior prints with outstanding colour vibrancy. The DTG Viper is designed and optimised for superior garment decoration.

DTG Inks and RIP

In order to ensure vibrant colour correct prints, the DTG Viper utilises advanced wash fast pigmented inks and a colour enhancing RIP.  Use less ink by laying down the right amount of ink and exactly where you want it, it’s simple.  With thousands of installations worldwide, the DTG RIP and DTG ink series are the benchmark for garment decorators worldwide.

APCP (Active Printhead Collision Protection)

By Incorporating precision culminated light beam detection sensors, anything getting in the way of the print path is automatically detected. The active drive system will drop the pallet while printing, ensuring that head strikes are drastically reduced while not interrupting your prints.
 

PEP (Positioning Encoder Protection)

A low noise high performance axial fan is mounted and sealed in a position so that ink mist is trapped prior to settling over encoder strips. Most machines suction ink mist over these vital parts whereas the DTG Viper encapsulates the misting and overspray in a sealed compartment and it is easily extracted before it gets in the road!!.

WIMS (White Ink Management System)

With the patent pending White ink Management System, head clogging and maintenance downtime is reduced considerably.  Historically white ink printing has been difficult and expensive.  The pigments ink white ink are heavier than in CMYK inks and will separate in the lines and heads if not used regularly.  Most white ink printers have aggressive cleaning procedures in place to keep ink moving.  This results in costly waste.  The DTG-WIMS is the final answer to white ink print issues.  By re-circulation of ink via a pressurised peristaltic pump system coupled with pressure release filters and dampers your white ink is ready to print when you are. We have reduced the maintenance and downtime currently seen in the industry and the DTG Viper is the best all-round white ink print system in the world market today.

An Australian Invention

The DTG Viper was designed and developed in Australia.  Although the Viper is now produced in Singapore the process is still carried out with the involvement of the DTG Engineers to ensure strict quality control.  The DTG Viper is fully CE Certified.
