UV printing is a reliable process that uses ultraviolet light to dry and cure the ink. It utilizes the photosensitive curing agent in UV ink to react under the action of ultraviolet waves, so that the pigment molecules are solidified on the surface of the material. And achieve the drying of the ink. This technology is not only suitable for the printing effect process in the traditional printing industry but is also widely used in inkjet, transfer printing, and other fields.
Why UV Printing Is So Popular?
1. High efficiency: our UV printer adopts Epson print heads. Printing speed can be increased to more than 30 times so that UV printers can complete a large number of printing work in a short time.
2. High image quality: UV printing can provide high definition and color saturation, as well as a 3D relief stereo effect, thereby increasing the added value of the products.
3. Environmental protection: UV printer uses UV environmentally friendly ink, this ink does not contain harmful substances, and is helpful to environmental protection.
4. Wide range of applications: Can be printed on a variety of materials, such as glass, metal, plastic, etc., to achieve full-color printing without plate making.
Difference Between UV Printing And Screen Printing
UV printing and screen printing are two different printing technologies, they have unsimilar features and applicable scenes. The distinctions are as follows.
1. Environment friendly. UV printing uses a new type of UV ink, it is considered as going green and environmental protection. Moreover, UV ink is not harmful to operators. However, screen printing is a traditional printing process, it causes pollution and damaging substances.
2. Cost comparison. It is applicable for multiple categories, personalized printing, unlimited quantity, decreased printing cost, and time. Even it doesn’t need to plate making. However, if you use traditional screen printing, you need to film plate making. It leads to high plate-making costs, a complex printing process, and the production period is longer.
