A thermal transfer printing machine transfers disperse dye from printed paper onto fabric at around 200 °C.

The main characteristics:

Dry process. No water, no washing and no drying – the fabric comes out ready for cutting.
Very small footprint compared with a screen printing line.
Photographic detail. Fine lines and full-colour artwork transfer without extra cost.
Economical at short runs. No screen making, so set-up cost is almost nil.
Good fastness. Once transferred, the print does not crack or peel.

Fabric choice matters: the method needs polyester or a high-polyester blend. For cotton and other natural fibres you would need a different process.

Machines come in two broad types – rotary machines for fabric in the roll, and flat presses for garments and small pieces.
