What is uv printing?

Uv printing is a printing process that uses ultraviolet rays to dry and cure ink. It is necessary to use ink containing photosensitizer in conjunction with UV curing lamp. The application of UV printing is one of the most important contents in the printing industry.

UV printer is a new type of direct digital printing technology developed in recent ten years. Through computer control and software, the required patterns are directly printed on the product surface, which is also called non-contact inkjet printer. Using the ultraviolet light emitted by LED lamp, the printed product can be dried immediately after punching, and the pattern will not be blurred.

UV printing is a printing method that uses UV ink to dry, and uses UV light to dry. UV printing is mainly used for packaging and printing of non-absorbent materials such as laser cardboard, aluminized paper, plastic PE and PVC. Compared with traditional offset printing, UV printing has the characteristics of bright colors, special printing materials, novel products and broad market prospects.

Advantages of UV printing:

Personalized customization: you can print photos, portraits and other patterns without limit.

3d relief effect: the printed pattern presents 3d effect visually, and the feel is uneven, which improves the added value

Simple operation: after the computer controls the equipment and software, the subsequent automatic printing saves labor.

Material is not limited: piezoelectric inkjet principle, not in contact with materials, can print a wide range of materials.

UV printing application:

Widely used in various polishing, embossing, bronzing, laminating and other deep processing fields.

The basic composition of sheet-fed offset press mainly includes multi-unit glazing unit, which can complete special glazing effect in a short time.

Cosmetic packaging also often uses special materials, such as ultraviolet printing.

Aluminized paper, composite paperboard and metal paperboard are widely used in packaging field.

UV printing is a printing process that uses ultraviolet rays to dry and cure ink, and it is also the most common printing process in the printing industry. In the printing process of UV printing, it is necessary to effectively combine UV curing lamp with ink containing photosensitizer in order to exert the best preventive effect.
