ColorJet showcased the live demonstration of home textile printing on products like bedsheets, pillow cover, curtains, table covers, etc. on the FABJET GRAND.
ColorJet Group, the biggest and only Indian manufacturer of digital printers in India brought a paradigm shift to the Indian home furnishing industry at Heimtextil 2016 by introducing its wider width direct-to-fabric digital home textile printer FABJET GRAND which is suitable to print on all inks, viz. reactive, pigment or disperse. ColorJet showcased the live demonstration of home textile printing on products like bedsheets, pillow cover, curtains, table covers, etc. on the FABJET GRAND. Exhibitors were encouraged and invited to witness the live demonstration and see the magic of home textile digital printing unfold at the ColorJet stall.

The FABJET GRAND is especially targeted at the customised home furnishings textile segment, particularly for producers of home décor products like curtains, bed covers and sofa covers to directly print on cotton and polyester-based fabrics and use environmental friendly aqueous based Pigment, Reactive or Disperse inks. The printer delivers high productivity, since it has two heads per colour in staggered position, which increases production and also has an extremely high practical printing speed, enabling high daily printing volumes and outstanding runability for overnight printing without banding and colour deflection.

The FABJET GRAND features a proprietary AIVC technology for consistent print performance by maintaining constant jetting conditions even in varying environmental conditions, and offers excellent print life with vivid eye-catching long-life colours for unique and richly finished fabric.

It has an automated feed and a take-up system, synchronised with tension bars for long unattended print runs on various types of fabric. It operates via a pneumatics control-based tension-bar on media feed and take up, to ensure consistent tension on fabric and adjusts automatically based on the type of fabrics being used.

The FABJET GRAND also has an automatic wiping system which wipes excess ink and dust from the print head surface. The Capping Station prevents inks from drying within the print head when printer is not in use for a long time, and also protects the head from dust accumulation.

It is further equipped with advanced colour management engine and colour processing tools which ensure faster processing of files leading to saving time and increasing productivity, and also has user-friendly and easy-to-use colour controls to manage colours.

There are advanced dither patterns for photo-realistic output, fully customised printer settings for enhanced print results, smoother gradations and vibrant colours for superior print quality and in-built ICC profiles for various media and print modes.

ColorJet is the only manufacturer that offers and sells machines as a solution, along with RIP colour management, ink usage, ICC profile and training for application development or various applications so that a machine can be used across different markets.

Smarth Bansal, Brand Manager at ColorJet Group, said, ´Apart from the price being very competitive, since our digital textile printers are manufactured at a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in India itself, buyers of our machines are eligible for various subsidies and benefits offered by the Government of India under EPCG & TUF schemes.´
