Basics
Terry towels and other terry products are economically printed in roll-to-roll form.
The fiber is normally out of cotton and is being printed with reactive dye or inks. To achieve highest fastness level, VAT dyes are used.
There are several challenges:
- To deliver the fabric onto the printer with minimum distortion
- To print the design in the center of each towel, although the length of each towel is varying slightly.
