Vastex PTF-100
(Table-Top Adhesive Powder Applicator Shaker)
The Vastex PTF-100, proudly manufactured and supported in the USA, ensures safe, efficient powder application for DTF imaging.
The PTF-100 Powder-To-Film system (patent pending), also known as a Powder Shaker, uniformly coats DTF films with adhesive powder, improving DTF printing performance and operator safety. Instead of hand-coating DTF films in open plastic containers that expose shop personnel to adhesive dust and require operator time and attention to obtain reliable results, the PTF-100 system provides uniform coverage without dusting and spillage, reducing waste and freeing staff to optimize production time.
The tabletop unit consists of a tabletop enclosure, with a clear polycarbonate door set at an angle. It comes with two identical cartridges, each of which can hold approximately 3 lbs (1.4 kg) of adhesive powder. It has a rear mounted exhaust designed to collect adhesive dust particles and create a “negative pressure” condition within the cabinet. The film tray is suspended on special rubber hangers that isolate it from the intense vibration applied to remove excess powder from the film.
