Production-Scale Fabric Printing at 1.8 Metres
The EFI VUTEk FabriVU 180+ delivers production-grade dye-sublimation output across the standard soft signage format range. Print direct-to-fabric or via transfer paper. Run at production speeds with low ink consumption and consistent image quality across every job. The right press for operations where 1.8-metre output covers the majority of production requirements.
Offer customers more high-value applications
1. Day/Night backlit graphics
Deep blacks, saturated colour, and consistent quality across the full 1.8-metre width. Suitable for retail lightboxes, exhibition backdrops, and backlit display applications at standard format sizes.
2. Exhibition and silicone edge graphics (SEG)
Tension fabric edged with a silicone strip for aluminium frame mounting. Lightweight, backlit-capable, and reusable across multiple deployments — a high-repeat application for exhibition and event supply.
3. Retail fixture wraps
Fabric wraps for gondolas, kiosks, and freestanding display units at standard retail format widths. Sharp detail, vibrant colour, and a premium finish that retail VM buyers specify over vinyl.
4. Front-lit graphics
Production-consistent output for front-lit fabric display applications. Higher perceived value than vinyl or paper across equivalent display sizes.
5. Flags
Full ink penetration for two-sided readability. The integrated flag printing kit manages the elevated ink volumes required for flag production without a separate dedicated press.
6.Home and hospitality furnishings
Custom headboards, drapes, tablecloths, shower curtains, and wall panels. Shorter run lengths at 1.8 metres make the FabriVU 180+ well-suited to bespoke and project-based décor production.
Highlights
Advanced media control
Direct-to-fabric or transfer paper — switchable per job. Supports a wide range of polyester-based media, keeping material sourcing flexible and input costs manageable.
Exceptional image quality
Up to 2,400 dpi with variable drop sizes of 7pL, 12pL, and 18pL. Smooth tonal transitions, sharp edges, and a wide colour gamut — consistent across every run at production speed.
High-value applications
Exhibit graphics, retail wraps, flags, blockout banners, and décor textiles from a single 1.8-metre press. A broader application menu than standard roll-to-roll output, with correspondingly higher margins.
Lower ink consumption and waste
EFI water-based dispersed dye inks run up to 30% more efficiently than competing systems. The ink recovery system saves more than 95% of ink lost during purging.
