DGI Hercules Dye Sublimation Printer
Engineered to redefine the industry standards of textile dye sublimation printers in the intermediate market. DGI has taken the industrial format technology approach with their first entry level textile printer aptly named – HERCULES.
The 74″ HERCULES stands out with its sophisticated features and innovative technology, setting it apart as an exceptional printer. Featuring two PrecisionCore Micro TFP i3200 heads powered by genuine F173 ink with exclusive waveform technology, the HERCULES delivers unmatched print performance. With 2.5L bulk ink tanks and a continuous winding take-up system capable of handling rolls up to 656 linear feet (200m), it enables up to 6 hours of unmanned production. The inclusion of carriage collision sensors and a vacuum suction capping station ensures smooth and error-free printing, while carriage speed control adds an extra layer of precision.
