InnoPrinter, a European manufacturer of industrial heat transfer systems, and Supply55, Inc., a North American distributor of workflow automation equipment, have announced a strategic partnership to introduce InnoPrinter's MK semi-automatic industrial heat presses and roll slitters to the North American market. The partnership aims to help manufacturers and decorators increase throughput, improve consistency, and lower operating costs through automation.
For over 25 years, InnoPrinter has designed and manufactured industrial continuous roll-format heat transfer systems in Europe. The company's heat presses are engineered to eliminate the most labor-intensive stages of transfer production by streamlining workflow and eliminating cutting and sorting from the heat application process. The presses are fully compatible with direct-to-film (DTF), sublimation, heat transfer vinyl (HTV), screen printed transfers, and HP Indigo transfers, making them a versatile solution for a wide range of production environments.
The partnership addresses key challenges facing North American manufacturers, including rising labor costs and increasing production demands. According to Simon Holt of InnoPrinter, "The challenges facing manufacturers in North America are very similar to those we've already helped solve across Europe. Rising labor costs and increasing production demands are driving the need for greater automation. InnoPrinter is a proven solution that increases throughput, improves consistency and reduces manual handling."
InnoPrinter's technology utilizes a continuous roll-to-roll transfer delivery system, eliminating manual handling of transfers and boosting production efficiency. The heat presses can be used for a variety of applications, including apparel and soft goods such as T-shirts, sportswear, workwear, bags, and towels; labels and compliance items like neck labels, country-of-origin labels, and size labels; caps and specialty products including baseball caps, footwear components, shoe insoles, leather goods, and denim.
Supply55, headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is a leading manufacturer and distributor of workflow automation equipment serving the digital printing, apparel decoration, graphics, signage, industrial, and specialty manufacturing markets throughout North America. The company will be the primary point of contact for North American customers interested in InnoPrinter products.
