Manufactured in Surat—India’s textile hub—the FabPro Series is designed to empower textile manufacturers with advanced digital printing technology tailored for both scale and quality.
FabPro 1i: Precision and Efficiency
The FabPro 1i has been engineered for mid-scale textile operations seeking high productivity without compromising print quality. Key features include:
- 8 Ricoh Gen 6 print heads with dual-channel configuration, offering durability and consistent output.
- Printing speeds of up to 110 linear meters per hour (2-pass) and 80 lm/hr (3-pass).
- High-resolution capability of 600×600 dpi and 600×900 dpi, ensuring sharp detail and vibrant colors.
- A wide printing width of 1800mm, suitable for diverse fabric requirements.
- 8-color configuration (C, M, Y, K, O, R, B, G) for accurate and vivid reproduction.
- Large 15L ink tanks for uninterrupted production runs.
The FabPro 1i also incorporates cutting-edge design features such as a water-resistant five-stage squeeze system to prevent dust and lint blockages, linear motor technology for precise ink jetting, and wrinkle controllers with advanced sensors to safeguard fabric quality. Its integrated feeding system supports rollers up to 400mm in diameter, making it versatile across fabric types.
FabPro 2i: Powering Large-Scale Production
For mills with higher capacity needs, the FabPro 2i offers a significant upgrade. Equipped with 24 Ricoh print heads, it delivers production speeds of 200 lm/hr (2-pass) and 150 lm/hr (3-pass). Its 1850mm maximum printing width provides greater flexibility for wide fabrics, while enhanced drying systems ensure consistent print quality even at higher speeds.
Like the FabPro 1i, it offers superior resolution and color accuracy, making it suitable for manufacturers handling bulk orders without compromising detail or finish.
