Industrial direct-to-fabric platform
H-Series Direct-to-Fabric R2R Printers
Roll-to-roll (R2R) printing runs fabric continuously from a roll, printing and drying inline - the format for high-volume direct-to-fabric output. The H-Series spans 1.8m to 2.6m widths, 8 to 32 Ricoh Gen6 heads, and reactive, disperse, acid and pigment inks on cotton, silk, polyester and home textiles.

Built for industrial textile production
Whether you run a cotton apparel mill, a silk-scarf line or a 2.6m home-textile floor, the H-Series puts one platform behind every fabric your customers ask for: four ink chemistries and five configurations, built for multi-shift uptime rather than benchtop runs. It serves industrial textile mills, fashion brands running silk and luxury fabrics, home-textile manufacturers producing curtains, bedding and cushions, and sportswear producers that need 1.8m to 2.6m roll-to-roll capacity.
Model lineup
Pick the right H-Series
Compare model, width, head configuration and current published speed references. The H-Series published maximum is 650 m²/h.

Reference values depend on model, pass, fabric, ink, coverage, feathering, environment and sellable-quality acceptance. The current published maximum is 650 m²/h; final line configuration and qualified output are confirmed on quotation.
Engineered for production-floor reality
Every feature solves a real pain point textile mills hit on the shop floor.
Negative-pressure head cleaning
An operator-triggered negative-pressure cleaning routine clears the heads when a nozzle check shows blockage; no timed automatic-cleaning claim is published.
Solves: recovering blocked nozzles with a documented maintenance path.
Qualified room conditions
The ink and printhead route is commissioned against a controlled temperature and humidity range for repeatable production.
Solves: color and jetting changes between seasons or shifts.
Adhesive-belt conveyance
Auto-cleaned belt with heating keeps stretch and knit fabrics flat at full speed.
Solves: wrinkles and dimensional shift on knits.
Constant-tension feed
Auto web guiding and wrinkle prevention for unattended long runs.
Solves: re-threading, fabric waste and operator babysitting.
Bulk ink supply
Large-volume ink tanks reduce ink cost per m² and refill frequency.
Solves: high consumable cost and constant cartridge swaps.

R2R vs DTF vs DTG - when each process wins
Roll-to-roll (direct-to-fabric) wins for continuous fabric at scale - apparel cloth, home textiles and soft signage - where the lowest cost per square metre and highest daily throughput matter most. Its larger up-front investment should be evaluated against expected utilization, labor, consumables and monthly output. DTF transfer (HY-702) wins for on-demand printing onto finished or mixed garments with low setup and no fabric-specific line. DTG (HY-4050) wins for one-off cotton garments and short runs. Tell us your fabric mix and monthly metres and we will prepare a scenario-based cost comparison; there is no universal payback period.
Frequently asked questions
Which H-Series model should I choose?
Choose by required width and daily output. The H-1808 (8 heads, ~170 m²/h) suits sampling and lower volume. The H-1816 (16 heads, ~330 m²/h) is the production workhorse. The H-1824 (24 heads, ~450 m²/h) covers high-volume single-shift work. The H-1832 and H-2632 (32 heads, ~650 m²/h) target high-volume mills, with the H-2632 offering 2.6m width for home textiles.
Which inks and fabrics does the H-Series support?
Reactive ink for cotton, linen, silk and wool; disperse ink for polyester; acid ink for silk, wool and nylon; pigment ink for cotton and blends. Ink availability varies by model configuration.
How is H-Series production output verified?
The current published H-Series maximum is 650 m²/h at 2-pass. Comparable sellable output should be tested with the model, head count, print width, ink, pass, resolution, coverage, fabric, feathering and room conditions recorded.
How many operators are needed per line?
Staffing depends on roll handling, pretreatment, drying, steaming or washing, inspection and shift pattern. The line study confirms operator roles for the complete process instead of assigning a universal one-operator claim to the printer alone.
What's the typical ROI or payback?
There is no universal H-Series payback period. It depends on installed line cost, sellable utilization, fabric mix, labor, energy, ink coverage, waste and local selling price. We calculate a scenario from your own daily output and cost inputs rather than publish an unsupported customer-average claim.
Do I need a steamer and washer?
Reactive and acid inks require post-print steaming and washing. Disperse requires heat-setting. Pigment ink fixes with heat only, no washing, the fastest turnaround.
What support is available outside China?
Remote diagnostics, video training and model-specific parts planning are available for overseas installations. The final support scope, response channel and any on-site service are confirmed in the quotation for the destination country.
