Decision path

Turn decorated-print settings into a repeatable production decision

1
Plan DTF film yield

Use real transfer dimensions, spacing, edge loss, rotation, quantity and spoilage.

2
Verify sublimation press settings

Start from a cited reference, then follow the exact blank supplier and document the successful calibrated press setting.

3
Test screen exposure instead of copying a time

Generate a controlled time ladder because emulsion, mesh, coating and light output change exposure.

4
Separate specialty UV layers in cost

Model CMYK, white, primer and gloss coverage with your own measured layer-cost rates.

Reference settings are starting points, not universal recipes

DTF, sublimation, UV and screen-print workflows depend on the actual equipment, ink/media system and substrate. InkyValley uses cited manufacturer or specialist guidance where a reference is useful, then keeps the machine/blank/emulsion supplier as the controlling production source.
