Don’t Just Print Things. Make Things.

UV DTF with the BD Series
With the BD Series, you can produce UV DTF decals for transferring intricate designs onto a variety of surfaces* and shapes with no weeding required, such as plastics, metal, wood, acrylic, glass and more.

Testing is recommended for each material that graphics will be applied to. Items with graphic transfers should be washed by hand, as machine washing is known to reduce adhesion.

No print expertise needed: BD Series settings are optimized for consistent, high-quality results, even on curved or uneven surfaces.
