Durst, an industrial inkjet specialist, and Technijet Ltd., a manufacturer of industrial high-pressure cleaning systems, founded a joint venture on the common conceptual design of the patented Swiftjet pre-treatment system. Swiftjet is a spraying and drying unit that is connected upstream of the actual printing machine and, depending on the desired printing result, takes over the chemical pre-treatment of the textile thread. Durst will also offer the pre-treatment system as a standalone solution for existing third-party technologies.
