Model anything from a small startup to a high-volume print operation. This is a planning tool—not a promise—and still excludes tax, owner labour and failed output.

Both technologies use UV-cured ink, but they produce different things. Start with what you plan to sell—then choose the machine.
Prints a full-colour adhesive transfer onto film. The finished decal is peeled from the carrier and applied by hand to a hard object.
Application still takes labour. Adhesion and wash resistance must be tested on every blank, and transfers remain a raised layer on the surface.
Places the product on a flatbed or in a jig, then prints and cures ink directly onto its surface—without a separate transfer.
Products must fit the bed, height and weight limits. Curved goods may need a rotary attachment, while repeat items often need custom jigs.
Choose UV-DTF when your products are mostly curved or awkward to load. Choose direct UV when precise placement and premium surface effects matter most.
