Why BYHX Digital Components Are Preferred in Production DTF Printers

In DTF (Direct-to-Film) printing, the digital control system plays a critical role in print quality, stability, and production efficiency. Among the most commonly used controller brands, BYHX and Hoson are the two leading choices. While both are capable industrial inkjet solutions, BYHX digital components are often preferred in DTF printers due to their stability, compatibility, and flexibility in production environments.

 1. Inkjet Control Specialization

BYHX focuses heavily on industrial inkjet control technology, with systems designed specifically for accurate printhead driving, signal processing, and motion control. This specialization allows precise droplet placement and consistent output, which is especially important in white-ink DTF printing. Hoson, while also an established controller brand, is more commonly used in entry-level and mid-range printers. Its systems are reliable but generally less optimized for fine ink control under high-load, long-run conditions.

Advantage: BYHX

 2. Printhead Compatibility and Performance

BYHX controllers are highly compatible with mainstream Epson printheads, like in the X5 DTF the Epson i3200, which are probably the most widely used in DTF printers. Their communication stability reduces data loss, minimizes banding, and improves color consistency. Hoson controllers also support Epson printheads but may show limitations when operating multiple printheads or high-speed configurations, particularly in white-ink circulation systems.

Advantage: BYHX (especially for multi-head and high-speed DTF printers like X5 DTF System)

 3. Stability for Continuous Production DTF printers

DTF printers are often used in long, uninterrupted production cycles. BYHX digital components are known for their high signal stability, industrial-grade hardware design, and mature firmware, making them well-suited for mass production environments. Hoson controllers perform well in smaller production setups but may require more frequent tuning or maintenance in high-volume operations.

Advantage:BYHX

 4. Modular Design and Scalability

BYHX uses a modular system architecture, separating the main board, head board, and carriage board. This allows manufacturers and users to easily: * Configure single, dual, or multi-head printers * Replace or upgrade individual components * Expand production capacity with minimal redesign Hoson systems are generally more integrated, which simplifies basic setups but limits flexibility when scaling or upgrading.

Advantage:BYHX

 5. Cost Efficiency and Market Position

Hoson controllers are often selected for cost-sensitive or entry-level DTF printers, offering a lower initial investment. BYHX controllers, while slightly higher in cost, provide better long-term value due to reduced downtime, higher print consistency, and easier maintenance. For professional users, this results in lower operational costs over time.

Advantage: Hoson (initial cost)

 

Long-term advantage: BYHX BYHX is ideal for professional, high-speed, and multi-head DTF printers, like in the 5 printhead setup from the X5 DTF System, where stability, scalability, and print quality are critical. This is why BYHX digital components are often preferred in higher-end DTF printers**, especially in commercial production environments that demand reliability, flexibility, and consistent output quality.
