Digital Socks Printer Advantage Features
There are various advantages of UniPrint digital Socks Printer that provides beautiful designs or patterns printed on socks. From the treatment to the technology involved, you can get an idea about “how the socks printer works” from the following points:
● 360-Degree Socks Printing POD Technology (Printing On-Demand)
UniPrint Digital Socks Printer can print on all types of socks, from cotton to polyester and bamboo to wool socks. It has a detachable printing roller that can print a pair of socks simultaneously. With its print-on-demand technology, it can print customized socks in small or large quantities. With 360-degree seamless printing, we can print 1 pair/design and easily load different designs into the software. Here, seamless printing means rotary printing with a perfect joint.
● Adopt Original EPSON Heads 1/2PCS
UniPrint Digital socks printer is equipped with two original Epson DX5 printheads that increase its speed and efficiency. Despite its high speed, it provides customized socks of exceptional quality by directly printing on socks. Epson’s unique micro piezoelectric printing technology controls the deformation of piezoelectric crystals. It precisely controls the size of ink droplets, ensuring excellent printing accuracy, with the smallest ink droplets up to 3.5PL.
● Low Noise Tank Towline
Tank towline of UniPrint digital Socks Printer has a silent drag chain that produces minimal noise during the printing process. The low noise of the machine results in lower vibrations, contributing to the longevity of the machine.
● CMYK Ink System With Filters
All ink systems of UniPrint Socks Printer are equipped with in-line filters. These filters protect the printheads from becoming clogged, helping to avoid any white leakage even after stretching the socks. With such an efficient ink system, all colors get elegantly printed on any socks.
● The Lifting System
UniPrint Socks Printer has a lift adjustment feature by which printer roller height can be quickly adjusted up or down. So printing carriage could get a suitable printing height to the socks’ surface. This rapid adjustment leads to getting any design perfectly printed on any material or thickness of the socks.
● Absorb Ink Fly
The sock customized printer has the feature of absorbing ink fly. So during the printing process, tiny inks drops will fly all over the printer area. Thus, this system helps in improving the printing environment.
● The Dual Control System For The Roller
UniPrint digital socks printer has a standard air tube connection that can control the roller. In addition, there is a foot pedal control in this system by which a roller can be loosened or fastened. Sometimes, the Socks Printer may have a button control instead of a foot pedal control.
● Roller Holder For Easy Operation
The unique roller holder of the UniPrint Socks Printer can help in quickly producing the custom socks while increasing the overall operator efficiency.
● Universal Foot Caster
Universal foot caster refers to the wheels on the printer base that helps the roller to move over socks easily. The screws of the wheels are fastened accordingly while the printer remains steady for printing.
● High Capacity Socks Printing
UniPrint digital Socks Printer has two pieces of original Epson printhead that can print two socks at a time. It has a speed of printing up to 50 pairs of socks per hour, that is, 400 pairs of customized and personalized socks in 8 hours.
● Anti-Collision System
Through the anti-collision system, the printhead in the carriage of the printing machine is protected. The machine automatically stops in case of any emergency.
● Adjustable Laser System
The adjustable laser system helps to print more accurate design positioning between left and right socks. Also, lasers are movable so to adjust the length of the socks.

Sublimation socks printing
In this process, you print the image on a particular type of transfer paper and then put it through a heat press. Finally, the image transfers into the sock’s fabric to get the finished products.

The digital printing process involves:
●Designing an image
●Putting socks on the roller

One liter of ink can print roughly 800 pairs of socks
Reactive ink is the best choice if we use a mixed material comprising 30% polyester and 70% cotton.
