Digital printing is the process of reproducing digital images on a physical surface, commonly used for fabrics and other materials. In digital textile printing, the finalized design is digitally printed on fabrics, transferring the image from a computer to the surface.
The main techniques in digital textile printing include screen printing, inkjet printing, and dye sublimation. Screen printing is employed for printing original artwork, copies, billboards, decorations, and indoor and outdoor fabrics, utilizing a mesh screen, ink, and a squeegee to transfer a stenciled design onto a surface. The fundamental procedure of screen printing involves creating a stencil on a mesh screen before pressing ink to form and imprint the design on the substrate underneath. Various printing processes in digital textile printing include roll-to-roll and direct-to-garment (DTG), utilizing different inks such as sublimation, pigment, reactive, acid, and other types. Digital textile printing finds applications in textile and decor, industrial uses, soft signage, and direct-to-garment applications.
