Kornit Digital introduces Presto Max

Textile Solutions

Kornit Digital has announced the release of its Presto Max system for sustainable on-demand production of apparel and other textile goods.

The new system makes its live debut at Kornit Fashion Week Los Angeles plus the Industry 4.0 Event, which the company is hosting from November 2 to 5 to showcase technology innovations, partnerships, and proven strategies driving the business case for sustainable, on-demand production of fashion and textile goods worldwide.

‘Presto Max will change the textile industry forever, transforming digital into the catalyst for modernising the business, breaking the barriers between imagination and physical applications, connecting consumers and fulfillers on a global scale, and truly capitalising on digital’s promise for delivering both sustainability and profitability, free of waste,’ said Ronen Samuel, Kornit Digital chief executive officer. ‘Whether your business is finished goods or ready to use custom fabrics, growing your own brand or supplying the world’s retailers and entrepreneurs, this technology represents the cutting edge of on-demand, unconstrained textile production, in terms of both capability, accessibility, and sustainability. Kornit empowers producers to create more with less, shrink their carbon footprint, and deliver unlimited expression while creating new opportunities and growth.’

Kornit launched its Max technology in April, and it is already field proven via the Atlas Max system, which supplies demanding global brands with the high retail quality and application variety needed to grow their product offerings and answer evolving consumers’ needs.

Presto Max reflects the company’s commitment to expanding groundbreaking capabilities to all segments of the marketplace, building upon its continuously improving portfolio of technologies to accelerate and empower the industry’s transformation into a more responsive and responsible model.

Introducing new capabilities to transform virtual concepts into brilliant custom fabrics for fashion, home décor, and other textile applications, this digital print system offers white printing on coloured fabrics, enhancing decoration capabilities for dark coloured fabrics more broadly.

The printer is compatible with natural fabrics, synthetics, and blends, and includes advanced algorithms for smart autonomous calibration, to deliver high quality results with short cycle times and minimal manual interruptions or defects.

Kornit Presto Max provides the cornerstone of a smart, efficient, sustainable eco factory that empowers producers to cover and integrate more parts of the process, from design to finished product, to decrease their carbon footprint, use minimum manpower, and generate less waste. this means eliminating excessive time, labour, and shipping throughout the value chain, enabling proximity production to meet the accelerated demands of a web driven global marketplace, revealing new sales channels and clever business models to grow the business long term.
