Digital Textile Printer: Monna Lisa ML-13000

This digital textile printer is designed primarily for clothing and textiles. The pre- and post-processing steps, previously carried out separately, are now performed simultaneously with the printing. This shortens the printing process.

The goal was to design an eco-friendly printer with less welding and sheet metal processing for the exterior housing.
