Questions & Answers

Q: Why is the Digi-Dry Box better for DTG curing than a heat press?
A: Heat presses trap steam under the platen and flatten garment fibers, creating a stiff print. The Digi-Dry Box uses quartz heat and air evacuation to draw moisture out of the fabric, leaving behind a soft, durable finish that feels like traditional screen printing.

Q: Can I use the Digi-Dry Box for curing plastisol inks?
A: Yes. The Digi-Dry Box cures plastisol inks faster than standard flash units or drawer dryers while reducing the risk of scorching or burning white shirts.

Q: How long does it take to cure a DTG shirt?
A: Typical cure times range from 30 to 90 seconds depending on the garment weight, ink deposit depth, and whether pretreatment is present.

Q: Where can I see or pick up the Digi-Dry Box?
A: You can schedule a demonstration or pick up equipment at Lawson Workhorse Group facilities in St. Louis, MO or Marietta, GA.

Description

The Lawson Digi-Dry Box is a specialized direct-to-garment (DTG) ink curing dryer engineered to properly cure water-based digital inks, pretreatment, and traditional screen printing inks. Designed for print shops in St. Louis, Atlanta, and across North America, the Digi-Dry Box combines high-intensity quartz infrared heat with a powerful air-evacuation exhaust system. This dual-action system pulls moisture down through the garment while simultaneously curing the ink deposit, producing soft-hand DTG prints that feel more like a traditional screen print than items cured with a standard heat press. Equipped with an automatic energy-saving timing cycle and adjustable temperature controls, it rapidly cures garments in 30 to 90 seconds while minimizing fabric scorching.
