Professional Sock Printing Machine for Custom Socks

The SENIOR SE-401 sock printing machine uses an Epson i1600 printhead and 360° spiral direct-printing technology to produce seamless custom socks, cooling arm sleeves, compression sleeves, and sports wristbands. It supports full-color logos, gradients, and wraparound designs for samples, personalized orders, and small-batch production.

Unlike traditional heat transfer sock printing methods, this machine prints directly on socks, allowing the ink to penetrate deeply into the yarn fibers rather than staying on the surface.

With seamless 360-degree spiral printing technology, it can create continuous full-wrap designs without visible breaks or white lines. This makes it ideal for producing custom fashion socks, sports socks, promotional socks, and personalized gifts.

Equipped with a high-resolution Epson 1600 printhead, the machine delivers vibrant colors, smooth gradients, and sharp details while maintaining stable production performance.

Key Features of the Sock Printer Machine

 

Direct Printing on Socks

Unlike traditional heat transfer printing, this machine prints directly onto socks, simplifying the process and reducing labor and production time.
The ink penetrates deeply into the yarn fibers, producing durable and vibrant printing results.

Seamless 360° Sock Printer Machine Without White Lines

The machine uses spiral 360-degree printing technology to create continuous patterns around the entire sock.
This eliminates the common white seam lines found in conventional sock-printing methods.

High-Resolution Epson i1600 Printhead

Equipped with an Epson i1600 printhead, the printer delivers outstanding color performance, high detail reproduction, and smooth gradient transitions.

Solid and Stable Machine Structure

The heavy-duty machine body minimizes vibration during printing, ensuring stable operation and consistent print quality.

Adjustable Printhead Height

The printhead height can be adjusted according to different sock thicknesses, ensuring optimal printing performance across various materials.
