The purpose of a transfer printing machine or transfer printing calender is to transfer and fix colours from a transfer paper to textile with a heated drum. This sublimation process requires however a regular temperature of the heated drum. Once the requested temperature is reached, sublimation takes place as the transfer paper and the fabric are brought together during their run around the heated roll by the Nomex^® endless felt, also called Nomex^® blanket or sublimation felt.

 It can be used for the printing of curtains, bedcovers and non woven fabrics made of polyester, nylon, acrylic and blends. This type of machine has several advantages : it does not need much place, there is no need of finishing for the printed fabrics, the time of process is quite short, the machine is easy to maintain, it does not need water, it does not need solvents.

Dollfus & Muller can supply Nomex^® endless felts for many other heat transfer printing machines such as:
