Efforts Towards Developing High-End Digital Printers with Wide Format is Increasing Traction of Customers Towards Market


The companies are trying to improve on the technological fronts and are investing heavily in the research and development operations to diversify their product portfolio in the global market. The companies are primarily developing technologically advanced products and gaining a competitive advantage in the market. These companies are striving to shift into diverse technologies and develop products capable of operating for different applications.


The newly manufactured printing solutions are capable of printing using eco solvent, UV, solvent, and aqueous inks providing an environmental benefit for the printing operations.


Additionally, with increasing investments in the integration of digital printers, the latest software and applications provide the advantage of creating innovative designs and a wide range of color combinations, increasing sharpness and vivid colored textures.


DRIVING FACTORS


Economic Cost of Operation Reduced Overall Operating Cost of Organization


Textile printing manufacturers across the globe are trying to improve their operational profitability by reducing operational expenses and increasing the print quality to attract more customers in the market. The digital printing method provides a crucial advantage on both fronts with reducing the operational costs by cutting the consumption of resources and providing high quality and sharpness on the prints. The cost-effective operation of these machines emerges as one of the critical perks which will bolster the digital textile printing market growth over the slated period. According to the recent market research published by Epson, the printing machines can reduce the consumption of water by nearly 90% and save the electric consumption by nearly 30%, reducing the expenses on procurement of these resources.


The use of machines will also elevate the level of automation at the printing facility, which reduces the requirement of human resources at these facilities. Furthermore, the installation of these machines results in the elimination of costly manual printing setups and maintenance and timely servicing involved with these setups. All these factors collectively reduce the overhead operation cost, making digital textile printing an economic process and enabling the user to yield more profit after installing these machines.


Ability to Have Virtual Fabric Printing Renders Aid Customers to Explore Multiple Opportunities


Digital printing technology can provide virtual printed models of the fabric before the initiation of the actual process to provide the user a glimpse of the finalized product and look at the texture on the fabric. This ability helps the customer to choose and finalize the best-suited texture on the fabric. The digital printing solutions help the fashion designers and fabric texture developers to safeguard their creative vision with the new, advanced, and novel digital tool. Moreover, using the technology above enables designers to integrate patterns, solid colors, and blends into fabric design. This is expected to bolster the market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Initial Cost and Limitations of Technological Know-How to Restrict Market Growth


The textile printing machines are extremely costly and require special digital print ink such as sublimation inks or reactive ink to execute digital print.  The high initial costs for the procurement and difficulties associated with understanding the digital machine's operations adversely affect the development of the market across the globe.  Moreover, many customers find it difficult to incorporate the operation of digital printers in their established conventional printing facilities. Additionally, to operate the digital printing machine efficiently, trained and skilled operators are required for proper printhead and ink blending to obtain desirable results using digital printing technology.


However, to boost sales and the market, most manufacturers strive to provide digital ink and pigments at a considerably lesser price. Efforts to increase the availability of cost-effective pigments and printer inks might minimize the curbing impact on the global market.


SEGMENTATION


By Operation Analysis


Stationary Type Compressors Estimated to Dominate Market Over Forecast Years


By operation, the market segments are classified into a single pass, and multi-pass. In the said market segmentation, multi-segment is anticipated to have a major share in the global market, whereas in terms of growth too, the multi-pass segment is anticipated to exhibit a substantial growth pace in the global market.


Although the selection of the operation type of printers is largely dependent upon the requirements and business of the customers, the minimal initial investment required for the procurement of these printers provides the multi-pass segment a major share in the global market. Moreover, multi-pass printers impart better flexibility and provide a complete solution with fewer print heads. On the other hand, the customers prefer single-pass printers due to the substantial printing speed of these products supported by noteworthy increments in overall sharpness and high quality. With the increasing incorporation of digital printing techniques in the textile industry and growing demand for multiple layered image printing on textiles, the increased demand for these printer products is projected to witness a considerable surge across the globe.
