Powder-Free, Eco-Friendly, Intelligent Manufacturing | Yilijet Invited to Attend GTF Powder-Free Innovative Process Launch Conference
On August 8, 2026, the GTF (Glue-To-Film) Powder-Free Innovative Process Launch Conference hosted by Lanyu Co.Ltd. concluded successfully at Yindu Huayue Hotel in Yiwu. Wuhan Yilijet Technology Co. Ltd.as a core enterprise in the digital inkjet equipment sector, was invited to the event. Mr. Cao Xueshi, Chairman of the company, attended the conference in person, participated in relevant signing ceremonies, and explored new opportunities in digital printing together with industry peers across the industrial chain.
Process Innovation: GTF Powder-Free Solution Revolutionizes Traditional Transfer Printing Model
Traditional DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing relies heavily on powder shaking and powder baking processes, while persistent challenges such as dusty working environments, material waste, and stiff fabric hand feel have long constrained factory development. The GTF powder-free system adopts liquid glue inkjet technology, completing pattern printing and adhesive layer attachment simultaneously on PET transfer films. By eliminating the powder shaking step, it delivers a brand-new printing solution that integrates efficiency, environmental protection and quality.
- Powder-free production environment: Completely eliminates powder dispersion, improves workshop conditions, reduces the risk of dust inhalation, and meets the high hygiene requirements of medical apparel, maternal and infant products and other categories.
- Efficient and convenient production: Streamlines workflows, removes the operation and maintenance costs of powder shaking equipment, powder procurement and waste disposal, helping enterprises reduce costs and improve efficiency.
- Upgraded product texture: Features an ultra-thin liquid adhesive layer with soft hand feel, with washing fastness reaching over 40 cycles and stable color reproduction.
- Wide application scenarios: Compatible with diverse products including T-shirts, throw pillows, hats, canvas bags, denim items and mugs, covering the apparel, cultural and creative, and gift markets.
Core Strengths: Four Innovations Build GTF's Core Competitiveness
- Superior Durability and Washing Resistance
Adopting high-viscosity special glue, it significantly improves the washing fastness of printed patterns. Finished products withstand repeated washing, meeting the long-term use requirements of apparel products.
- Reduced Overall Material Waste
It eliminates the continuous consumption of hot melt adhesive powder, removes the costs of powder inventory and waste disposal, effectively controls raw material expenses, and reduces the environmental impact of production.
- Upgraded Workshop Safety and Hygiene Standards
It eliminates various production hazards caused by adhesive powder, making it particularly suitable for the production and processing of categories with high hygiene requirements such as medical apparel and maternal and infant products.
- Upgraded Comfortable Wear Feel
The ultra-thin liquid adhesive layer fundamentally solves the stiffness problem of printed areas, balancing pattern expressiveness and comfortable wearing experience.
Yilijet: Deep Cultivation in Technology to Jointly Promote Green Intelligent Manufacturing in the Industry
As the group's specialized layout in the textile digital printing field, Yilijet owns the Xiangcai Coltex brand, which focuses on medium and high-speed belt-type direct-to-fabric printing equipment. Its participation in this conference is a positive response to the industry's development trend of "environmental protection, simplification and high quality". The powder-free process represents the future direction of the digital printing industry. Yilijet is willing to work hand in hand with industrial chain partners to jointly promote the application and continuous iteration of GTF technology, and provide more printing factories with a clean, efficient and high-quality path for intelligent manufacturing upgrading.
Environmental protection, simplification and high quality are irreversible development trends in the digital printing industry. In the future, Yilijet will continue to leverage its advantages in inkjet control technology, deepen collaborative cooperation with partners such as Lanyu Co., Ltd., empower more processing factories to achieve process upgrading, and jointly usher in a new era of powder-free intelligent manufacturing.
