Vee Kay Enterprises launches Make in India Digital Textile Printing Machine

Vee Kay Enterprises launches Make in India Digital Textile Printing Machine

Established in the year 1985, Vee Kay Enterprises, a name synonymous with complete solutions in digital printing for various segments, including digital textile printing, launched their first-ever Made in India digital printing machine at the recently concluded GARFAB–TX exhibition in Jaipur, India. With thislaunch, the company proudly joined the “Make in India” initiative, which encourages Indian entrepreneurs to promote technology developed and manufactured locally and curb imports that hugely dent our country’s economy.

Speaking to our editor, Mr. Amit Wadhwa, Vee Kay Enterprises,we have launched the reactive printing machine and were elated with the response received for their machine,which matches globalstandardsin terms of quality and performance.

He furtherwent on to add that their entry-level machine, launched in 4- and 8-head versions, is priced quite competitivelyin comparison to Chinese brandswith similar specifications. The price advantage not just comes from being made in India, but also from the expertise and capabilitiesthat Vee Kay Enterprises has built through more than 4 decades of understanding the market needs.

This machine is equipped with a RICOH Gen6 head, which remains the popular choice for major brands for being a highly reliable, stable, and performance orientated printhead that is also priced competitively. In terms ofspeed, the machine exceeds customer expectations by matching every feature that one might find in a 4- or 8-head machine. The production speed for a 4-head machine is 65sqm/h, while an 8-head version is 130sqm/h.

Vee Kay Enterprises launches Make in India Digital Textile Printing MachineOn being asked about the future of pigment inks, Mr. Amit felt that with stricter norms on environmental concerns and water conservation, pigment printing will steadily gain momentum as global demand for sustainable garments is already on the rise. The advantage of pigment printing is that it considerably reduces water usage while eliminating pre- and post-treatment processes. Also, besides garments, pigment printing can open up newer markets such as bags, jute, and footwear, a market that Vee Kay Enterprises would also like to tap in the future. Regarding the cost of the machine, Mr. Amit revealed that while the 4-head machine is priced at 40 lakhs, the 8-head version will be priced a bit higher at around 50 lakhs. In the future, though, as the volume builds up with demand, the prices might significantly reduce, making it even more affordable. Cost-wise, also, our machine offers the advantage that customers can save around 20 to 25 percent on freight and customs duty. In addition, there are inherent advantages to buying this machine, as after-sales service support and availability of spares with quick response will greatly reduce the downtime and boost production.

He further added, “China, where online business is thriving, and in the future, a similar trend in India will only help promote the growth of textile digital printing, which is preferred in this era of fast fashion, quicker delivery, and better production planning, even for smaller quantities. The future of digital printing, according to Mr. Amit, will be pigment printing and single pass, a technology that is already being adopted by many across the world. We are also planning to launch our pigment digital textile printing machine very soon”.

Mohammad Bilal, Senior Brand Executive & Country Manager, Ashima Machinery (Ample Garment Machinery)

When you think of starting a business in garment manufacturing, the first thing you should do gather is knowledge on machinery and basic equipment you need for making the garments manufacturing. There is a wide range of machineryfor different processesin apparel manufacturing from design development to fabric checking to garment packing. What types of machines and technology one need to install for the manufacturing business, depend on the product variety and investment capability?

Starting a business in the garment industry can be considered as one such good option. You can startyour businessin the garment manufacturing sector or start your own clothing label (brands) and open a retail store. Anyone can enter into the garment manufacturing business. I have seen many newcomers are from different fields like IT professionals, bankers, and HR professionals who have started their businessin thisindustry

In this article, Ample GarmentMachinerywill provide you information for alltypes of machinery and equipment required for setting up a garment manufacturing business. Ifyou look at garmentmanufacturing processes,theyinvolves processes like – sample development, pattern making, fabric inspection, fabric spreading, fabric cutting, garment stitching, garment checking, garment pressing, repair work, garment folding, and packing. In all these processes, a different set of machinesis used. The majority of machines are stitching machines.

Fabric Testing and Fabric Inspection
In garment manufacturing, fabric plays an important role in garment quality and product valuation as well as customer demand. Secondly, 60-70 percent of the cost is incurred in fabrics in total garment costing. That is why purchasing the right quality fabric for your products is necessary. For verifying the fabric quality parameter, garment manufacturers prefer to set-up in house fabric testing.

Fabric Spreading Machines
For small-scale garment manufacturing, manual spreading is viable. But if you want to scale up your business, improve cutting room productivity and reduce cutting room manpower, automatic spreading machines must be considered

Product Designing and Pattern Making
For the pattern making of the sample products, you may be interested in software. For this, you can purchase CAD (computer-aided design). There are other components of the CAD systems – pattern grading, marker planning, nesting and pattern digitization. For printing the marker paper, you need a plotter machine. With the help of CAD software, you can estimate fabric requirements accurately and improve the garment fit.

Cutting Room Machines and Equipment
With the technology advancement, cutting automation is preferred by medium and large-scale garment manufacturers. Cutting room efficiency is improved by many folds after using an automatic textile fabric cutting machine.

Sewing Machines
Sewing machines are the heart of the garment manufacturing factories. Different types of sewing machines are available for making the garment products. You need to select the right mix of sewing machines for your products or product groups. For the selection of sewing machines and the number of sewing machines needed to be purchased for setting up your factory, you can take advice from an expert in industrial engineering in Ample Garment Machinery.

Finishing Machines and Equipment
Various types of finishing equipment are required. Like, garment pressing equipment – vacuum table and steam iron for pressing garments.

Garment Packing
Garment folding is normally done manually. But a garment folding template is available in the market. In the garment packing stage, hangtags must be attached to the garment. For tagging, you need a tag gun machine.

If you are making garments, one of the compliance parameter is that all garments must be passed under needle detector machines. You may need to buy a needle detector machine

Pigment Printing: A Game-Changer for the Industry
Unlike traditional reactive or sublimation printing, pigment printing offers several key advantages that make it a preferred choice for modern textile manufacturers. One of the most significant benefits is its compatibility with a wide range of fabrics, including blends, which expands its usability across different textile industries. Additionally, pigment printing eliminates the need for steaming or washing post printing, significantly reducing water and energy consumption. This not only lowers operational costs but also aligns with global sustainability goals. Its cost effectiveness and eco-friendly nature make it an attractive option for businesses looking to optimize resources while minimizing environmental impact.

Industries such as home furnishings, which often rely on blended fabrics, and shirting manufacturers, where durability and high-quality prints are essential, stand to benefit the most from pigment printing technology.
