Advantage of UV ink

UV curable ink is used in Uv Flatbed Printer For Wood, let’s see the advantage of the UV ink.

UV curable ink (UV curable ink):

Compared with water-based or solvent-based inks, UV inks can adhere to more materials, and also expand the use of substrates that do not require pretreatment. Untreated materials are always less expensive than coated materials due to the reduction in processing steps, thus saving users significant material costs.

UV-curable inks are so durable that you no longer have to use lamination to protect the surface of your prints. This not only solves the bottleneck problem in the production process (lamination is very demanding on the printing environment), but also reduces material costs and shortens the transfer time.

UV curable ink can stay on the surface of the substrate without being absorbed by the substrate. As a result, it provides more consistent print and color quality across substrates, saving users some setup time.

In general, inkjet technology has many attractions, but the most important thing is that it avoids many of the setup work and finishing requirements that cannot be avoided in the process of printing short runs in traditional printing methods.

The maximum speed of industrial inkjet printing systems has exceeded 1000 square feet / hour, and the resolution has reached 1440 dpi, and they are very suitable for high-quality printing of short runs.

UV-curable inks also reduce environmental pollution issues associated with solvent-based inks.

Advantages of UV ink:

1. Safe and reliable, no solvent discharge, non-flammable, and non-polluting to the environment, suitable for packaging and printed matters with high hygiene requirements such as food, beverages, tobacco and alcohol, and medicines;

2. UV ink has good printability, high print quality, no change in physical properties during the print process, no solvent volatilization, no disordered viscosity, strong ink adhesion, high dot clarity, good tone reproducibility, bright and bright ink color, firm adhesion, suitable for Fine product printing;

3. UV ink can be dried instantly, with high production efficiency and wide adaptability;

4. UV ink has excellent physical and chemical properties. The process of UV curing and drying is the photochemical reaction of UV ink, that is, the process of changing from a linear structure to a network structure, so it has water resistance, alcohol resistance, wine resistance, wear resistance, aging resistance, etc. Excellent physical and chemical properties;

5. The amount of UV ink in Uv Direct Printer is low, because there is no solvent volatilization, and the active ingredient is high.

LED-UV cold light source curing lamp:

1. The LED-UV light source does not contain mercury and is an environmentally friendly product;

2. The LED-UV curing system does not generate heat, and the LED-UV technology can significantly reduce the heat generated during the curing process, thus enabling people to perform UV printing on thin plastics and other materials;

3. The ultraviolet light emitted by LED-UV can cure the ink immediately, without coating, and it can be dried immediately, which greatly improves the production efficiency;

4. Suitable for a variety of substrates: flexible or rigid, absorbent non-absorbent materials;

5. Energy saving and cost reduction, LED-UV curing light source also has a variety of advanced functions and environmental protection. Compared with traditional metal halide lamps, LED-UV light source can save 2/3 of energy, and the service life of LED chips is the same as that of traditional UV lamps. Multiple times the lamp, another important advantage of LED-UV technology is that LED-UV does not require a warm-up time and can be turned on or off at any time as needed
