As a newly developed international high-tech industry, digital printing has many advantages, such as high flexibility, short technological process and high efficiency. It has an unparalleled advantage in printing high resolution patterns such as color gradation and moire. It can achieve low energy consumption and pollution-free production in technology. The "12th Five-Year plan" put forward higher requirements for energy saving and emission reduction in printing and dyeing industry.

The trend.

What is even more encouraging is that digital printing, as China's independent innovation, intellectual property rights and international advanced level, is promoting the pformation of the textile industry to a new low-carbon, eco friendly and environment-friendly economy.

From 2014 to 2015, global digital printing production accounts for 10% of the total textile printing output, and the number of digital printing equipment will reach 50 thousand sets, according to the UK's PIRA agency.

According to the relevant domestic development, it is estimated that the output of digital printing will account for more than 5% of the total output of textile printing in China. The number of digital printing equipment will reach 10 thousand sets.

But at present, the development level of digital printing technology still needs to be improved.

Unlike traditional printing, the success or failure of digital printing products lies not only in the quality of the digital printing machine, but also in the overall production process. The adaptability, pre processing and post-processing of the printing nozzles, ink, software, fabric are the key factors, whether digital printing technology can help enterprises realize the "mass customization production mode".

According to the expert office, according to the current market situation, the investment income of digital printing is 3.5 times higher than that of traditional printing, and the investment recovery period is about 2 to 3 years.

Taking the lead in entering the digital printing market and leading competitors will be conducive to the long-term development of enterprises in the textile industry.

But in EPSON (China) Limited, Song Haiyang, the product manager of large format printers, information products business department, some of the traditional printing enterprises have already been pformed.

Song Haiyang said that digital printing has higher color saturation, fashion products can be customized on demand, output from EPSON's micro jet printing machine, heat pfer printing technology can even pfer patterns to aluminum plates to achieve photo level image display.

At the same time, it can also enable users to achieve low energy consumption and pollution-free production.
