The differences and respective advantages and disadvantages of digital printing, rotary screen printing, flatbed screen printing, heat transfer printing, and paper transfer printing fabrics are as follows:


Digital printing fabric: 

Difference: Digital printing uses computer digital control technology to directly print designs on fabrics, with richer pattern details and color layers. 

Advantages: Accurate color, high precision, good repeatability, suitable for small batch production without MOQ, environmentally friendly. 

Disadvantages: Relatively high production cost.


Rotary screen printing fabric: 

Difference: Rotary screen printing is a printing method that prints the printing pattern on screens, and then transfers ink to the fabric by rotating the rotary screen. 

Advantages: Lower printing processing cost, good effect, suitable for large-scale production. 

Disadvantages: The printing details and color layers are not rich enough, not suitable for complex patterns on textiles, and there is a certain minimum order quantity: generally 1500-2000 meters, and plate-making fees are required, generally 3-500 yuan/color set (if a pattern has 6 colors, then the plate-making fee is 6*300=1800 yuan).


Flat screen printing fabric: 

Difference: Flat screen printing is a printing method that uses plain weave fabric as the basis. 

Advantages: The printing processing cost is lower than rotary screen printing, and the printing effect is good. Smooth and flat fabrics can better display the printing pattern. Disadvantages: Not suitable for fabrics with texture, higher printing cost, there is a certain minimum order quantity, generally 1500-2000 meters, and plate-making fees are required, generally 3-500 yuan/color set (if a pattern has 6 colors, then the plate-making fee is 6*300=1800 yuan).


Heat transfer printing fabric: 

Difference: Heat transfer printing is a printing method that prints the printing pattern on thermal film, and then transfers the printing pattern to the fabric through high temperature and pressure. 

Advantages: Lower printing processing cost, very fine and durable printing patterns, can be applied to various fabrics. 

Disadvantages: The heat transfer printing equipment is relatively expensive, and the printing process requires more time than other methods. There is a certain minimum order quantity, generally 1500-2000 meters, and plate-making fees are required, generally 1600-2000 yuan/color set (if a pattern has 6 colors, then the plate-making fee is 6*1600=9600 yuan).


Transfer paper printing fabric: 

Difference: Transfer paper printing is a printing method that prints the printing pattern on special paper, and then transfers the printing pattern to the fabric through heat pressing. Advantages: Lower printing processing cost, good printing effect, can be applied to various fabrics. 

Disadvantages: Transfer paper can only print one pattern at a time, not suitable for large-scale production. There is a certain minimum order quantity, generally 1500-2000 meters, and plate-making fees are required, generally 1600-2000 yuan/color set (if a pattern has 6 colors, then the plate-making fee is 6*1600=9600 yuan).


In summary, different printing methods are suitable for different products and production needs. Choosing the appropriate printing method can make products more distinctive and competitive in the market.
