Famous Designer Yamamoto Kansai: Why Do I Choose EPSON Inkjet Printer?

Using the most advanced digital printing machine to create amazing designs.

It was the first Japanese designer to appear in London in 1971.

Since then, he has been famous for avant-garde design, sculpture tailoring and bright colors and patterns.

His work "super-shows" combines large-scale fashion with music, dance and entertainment, and displays in Moscow Red Square, India Nehru stadium and Tokyo Dome City.

His most classic designs include a popular Tokyo dress and a single shoulder worn by David Bowie.

As soon as he saw the samples of EPSON digital printed fabric, Yamamoto Kansai could not resist the idea of cooperating with him. He joined EPSON in 2013 to hold a fashion show Yamamoto Kansai fashion show in Vitoria, London and Albert Museum.

Amazed by the printing effect of EPSON, he decided to cooperate with EPSON again in the recent performance: "Hello, Istanbul!!"

EPSON has used its most advanced micro jet printing machine to print about 15 designs of Yamamoto Kansai, and exported about 800 square meters of textiles, including customized polyester.

And cotton products.

Yamamoto Kansai's works are very grand, combined with traditional Japanese aesthetics and ultra modern style. Most of the works printed are printed through EPSON SureColor SC-F7100 series printer and printed on polyester fabric. Some of them are made of EPSON SurePress FP 30160 and Monalisa direct spray micro jet printing machine directly on nylon and cotton fabric.

EPSON's unique inkjet printing technology allows Yamamoto Kansai to manipulate the whole process of design and output, and to ensure that the output of the spectacular works is exactly the same as the original design.

Yamamoto Kansai also used the traditional printing process.

For example, the "Boro" design he created was made of many pieces of old cloth and rag.

Yamamoto Kansai said, "I used the indigo cotton cloth made by hand in the northeast of Japan before the Second World War, but it was too expensive."

It took him several months to make "Boro", and the cost was enormous.

EPSON micro jet printing machine equipped with the latest PrecisonCore micro piezoelectric nozzle, can perfectly restore Yamamoto Kansai's exquisite and complex design, such as "Boro", many people think that it simply can not print out.

Its printing resolution reaches 720-dpi, the shape and position of the patterns are very precise, and the printing quality and color are excellent.

"EPSON's micro jet printing has changed the way I always view printing," says Gao Gu, an executive designer at Yamamoto Kansai company. "Printing usually makes the design look lacking in level and looks very pale. However, printing with EPSON micro jet printing machine can make fabrics look as rich and solid as velvet and cotton fabrics."

Color is also important in fashion industry.

Yamamoto Kansai said: "I do not accept pale and dark colors, and the color of EPSON's printed designs is very bright."

The fabrics used in fashion shows include all kinds of flowers, including velvet, cicada, sports grid, parachute cloth, cotton and nylon.

EPSON's original ink has been optimized and improved to ensure that the color and quality can be best achieved when printing on different fabrics.

Takatani said: "the color on the printed velvet is really beautiful and incredible."

These colors are made from the "live color DS" thermal pfer ink used for heat pfer printing of polyester fabrics, and developed by the F.Lli Robustelli of Como, Italy, for the Genesta ink of the Monalisa textile printing system and EPSON SurePress FP-30160 direct injection micro jet printing machine.

In the fast-paced fashion industry, fast turnover is another key factor.

Compared with analog printing, digital printing is not necessary to make special photosensitive plates and screen plates.

Compared with traditional printing technology that takes months, the cycle of digital printing has been reduced to a day to a week.

Digital printing technology has great flexibility, until the last minute before printing, Yamamoto Kansai can still modify and improve his works.

Yamamoto Kansai said, "when I drink tea, I can use EPSON to make micro jet printing."

Because the nozzle density of EPSON PrecisionCore micro piezoelectric nozzle is as high as 720 per color, it can spray up to 40000 drops per second, and the production capacity is greatly improved.

EPSON SurePress FP-30160 and EPSON SureColor SC-F7100 series can achieve high output and high quality. In default mode, printing speed reaches 35 square meters per hour and 58.9 square meters / hour respectively.

The EPSON micro jet printing machine can also ensure excellent quality without sacrificing speed, which fully meets the needs of Yamamoto Hiroshi Zhai and other designers.

Yamamoto Kansai also said EPSON micro jet printing machine has a strong advantage in the production of high-end fashion.

Each of his 15 designs is printed on 5 to 20 meters long cloth.

Yamamoto Kansai said: "micro jet printing technology has great potential in the fashion industry.

EPSON technology has endless possibilities. I believe their innovation will never end. "
