FIREBIRD™ Industrial Processing [FIP]

Pretreat up to 288 shirts per hour with one FIP channel, which is 1 washer-extractor & 2 dryers. In addition, one person can effectively operate 3 FIP channels: 3 x 288 = 864 shirts per hour.

Eliminate the "one-in, one-out" time and labor drain of spraying and heat curing one shirt at a time. Using preset programs, FIREBIRD's patented pretreatment is automatically pumped into the Miele system, fully coating the shirts and extracting the excess pretreatment to be reused. With FIP, you can batch process and scale production.

FIP pretreated shirts can also be stored for over 1 year on the shelf, which adds workflow flexibility. With FIP pretreated shirt inventory, eliminate the spray pretreatment step prior to printing.

FIP advances the ability to print onto more brands, styles, and colors of garments. In addition to DTG printing onto Cotton, FIP allows your shop to add: 50/50's, Tri-blends, Hoodies, Knit-wear (polos), and 100% Polyester. Also, FIP pretreated garments can be printed on everywhere; front & back, sleeves, and even the inside neck label.
