The new SureColor SC-F11000 and SC-F11000H are now part of Epson‘s portfolio offering for textile manufacturers.
Following the success of the 76-inch SureColor F10000 and F10000H, industrial textile printers in 2020, Epson announces a new 76-inch textile printer. The SureColor SC-F11000 is a sophisticated, dye-sublimation printer developed for textile production where high productivity, speed, quality and reliability are central to the success of the business.
The SC-F11000H has been designed for maximum up-time, thanks to the new optional Jumbo Roll that enables continuous production and reduced downtime due to less frequent media changes, ideal for uninterrupted high-volume production. The printer is perfectly tailored to applications in fashion, sportswear, home furnishings and soft signage.
The SC-F11000H features CMYK ink configuration and includes the addition of one of three ink sets: orange and violet; fluorescent yellow and fluorescent pink; and light cyan and light magenta.
Phil McMullin, Head of Sales for Commercial & Industrial, Epson UK, says: “In the dye-sublimation sector, customers demand fast turnaround times, consistent performance, high-quality output and reliability. With these requirements in mind, we’ve developed an industrial level dye-sublimation printer that, we believe, sets new standards. The SC-F11000 offers the highest throughput of all Epson LFPs and is equipped with four PrecisionCore Micro TFP printheads and a ‘hot swap’ bulk ink solution that’s designed to keep businesses running.”
The features of the SC-F11000 and SC-F11000H include an optional Jumbo Roll up to 300kg maximum roll weight and new additional inksets in orange and violet. The PrecisionCore Micro TFP printheads offer up to 255m2/hr high-speed printing and are just one of the user-replaceable parts. Epson Precision Dot Technology blends three dedicated technologies for dye-sub: Halftone, LUT and Micro Weave, whilst media loading lever front and back give easy media setting.
To further improve consistency, quality and reliability of supply, Epson manufactures all the components for the SC-F11000 and SC-F11000H, including printheads, ink and Epson EdgePrint Pro software.
McMullin goes on to say, “Our heritage is built on innovation, and this is one of those moments in which we’re raising the benchmark for productivity in dye-sublimation.”
