Is This the Smartest Powder Shaker for Your DTF Workflow?
As direct-to-film (DTF) printing continues to dominate the custom apparel and transfer industry, having the right shaker and curing system can make or break your production flow. That’s where the DTF Station Miro 36 comes in—offering a new level of intelligence, automation, and consistency for mid-to-high volume DTF operations.
In this post, we’ll explore everything you need to know about the Miro 36, compare it to other popular DTF powder shakers, and help you decide whether it’s the upgrade your shop’s been waiting for.
The Miro 36 is a 36-inch automatic powder shaker and dryer unit, designed specifically for high-speed DTF workflows. It pairs seamlessly with printers like the Prestige R2, R2 Pro, or larger-format DTF systems.
Built by DTF Station, a U.S.-based manufacturer known for its innovation and user-first designs, the Miro 36 delivers smart functionality, reduced labor, and consistent powder adhesion that helps prevent costly film failures.
The Miro 36 is equipped with an AI-based sensor system that automatically adjusts how much powder to dispense based on the film’s movement and thickness. That means less waste and more consistent results.
It keeps powder flowing smoothly and prevents clumping—even during long production runs. The circulation system ensures optimal powder pickup and reuse, saving you money over time.
The Miro 36 has an independent heating unit with adjustable temperature zones, along with air cooling fans that help the film cool down before being wound. This minimizes warping and keeps prints flat and smooth.
User-friendly interface makes it easy to control powder volume, vibration settings, temperature, and more—no guesswork, no manual tuning.
Protects your print room and operators with integrated smoke and odor filtration, making it safe for indoor use.
