Roland DGA unveils new DTG printer

Roland DGA launches the Texart XT-640S, a multistation, DTG printer. The XT-640S is suitable for graphics apparel businesses looking to expand their product offerings by integrating an advanced “print what you want” solution.

A sliding baseplate and platen flatbed operation give users the flexibility to customize a wide variety of cotton and cotton-blend products, including specialty apparel items, accessories, gifts and interior décor. The XT-640S offers a digital workflow with pre-defined print environments. A separate control tower with touchpad controls, CADlink Digital Factory Apparel Software and customer barcode reading, allow for easy integration into current production workflows.

The XT-640S’ 63 x 54 in. flatbed with a Z height of 8 in. lets you customize items like towels, blankets, jeans, jackets and décor. It uses CMYK and high-density White INKU Eco Passport Certified DTG inks.

“Our new Texart XT-640S direct-to-garment printer fulfils a truly unique market niche,” said Roland DGA senior product manager Lily Hunter. “This versatile, easy-to-use machine not only enables users to print directly on a wide variety of apparel and accessory items, it also allows screen print businesses and other types of operations to accept a broader range of jobs. They can print small batches quickly with low operational costs, but they also have the continuous printing capabilities to accommodate large production runs.”
