A sublimation T-shirt printing machine is a specialized device used for sublimation printing, a process that transfers designs onto fabric using heat and pressure. What fabrics work best for sublimation printing? Sublimation printing works best with fabrics that have a high polyester content. Here are some options that are ideal for this process: 1. Polyester Fabric: 100% polyester is the gold standard for sublimation printing. It ensures the best color absorption and vibrancy. 2. Polyester Blends: Fabrics that contain a high percentage of polyester (at least 50%) mixed with other materials like cotton or spandex can also work well. However, the lower the polyester content, the less vibrant the colors may be. 3. Polyester-Coated Fabrics: Some fabrics are specially coated with a polyester layer to make them suitable for sublimation printing. It's important to note that sublimation doesn't work well with natural fibers like 100% cotton, as the dye needs polyester fibers to bond with. The key functions of a sublimation T-shirt printing machine:  Design Transfer: Transfers designs from sublimation paper to T-shirts.  Heat Application: Uses high heat to turn sublimation ink into gas.  Fabric Penetration: Allows the gas to bond with polyester fibers.  Durable Prints: Ensures long-lasting, vibrant, and detailed prints.
