UV Printer

UV printers, also known as Ultra-Violet printers, use UV ink and built-in lights. They print directly on surfaces like wood, metal, acrylic, and glass. This technology instantly cures inks and coatings, making it ideal for printing on bottles, brochures, and signage. UV printing is now widely adopted in various industries. Linko, a Chinese UV printer manufacturer, makes high-quality machines. We sell them worldwide and seek partners.

UV Printing Technology

UV printing, full name ultraviolet printing, is a digital printing technology. It uses ultraviolet curing technology to print UV ink directly on materials and "substrates" and dry them immediately. Unlike traditional printing, UV printing uses piezoelectric inkjet technology. It controls the ink through the nozzle's internal voltage and sprays it on demand. The sprayed UV ink turns solid when it hits UV rays. It forms a film that sticks to the material's surface. UV printing does not require plate making, and patterns can be output directly from the computer. It has high precision, fast curing, bright colors, and wide adaptability. It allows for custom designs and is environmentally friendly. Get UV Printer Price

Which UV Printer is Right for You?

  • UV flatbed printers are suitable for printing directly on the surface of flat objects. They can print objects of various shapes and materials and can achieve the three-dimensional effect of 3D relief.
  • UV roll-to-roll printers are mainly used for continuous printing of flexible materials, such as paper, film, textiles, etc.
  • UV industrial printers are suitable for large-scale industrial production. The printer has high precision, high speed and high stability.
  • UV cylindrical printers are specially designed for cylindrical objects, such as glasses, water cups, etc.
Type Features Scope of application Advantages Disadvantages
Flatbed UV printer Flat objects Mobile phone cases, wood boards, glass, etc. Simple operation, wide application range Low production efficiency
Roll-to-roll UV printer Flexible materials Wallpapers, posters, labels, etc. High production efficiency, suitable for large quantities Only suitable for flexible materials
Industrial UV printer High precision and high speed Electronic product panels, car interiors, etc. High production efficiency, high precision Expensive and complicated operation
Hybrid UV printer Flat and coiled materials Various materials One machine for multiple uses, high flexibility Complicated equipment and high price

Applications

UV printers are suitable for a variety of materials and industries. Common applications include advertising logos, packaging printing, personalized customized products, electronic equipment housings, home decoration, glass and ceramic printing, etc. UV printing technology can print high-quality images on flat materials, irregular and three-dimensional surfaces, meeting the needs of various industries for customized and high-precision printing.

FAQ About UV Printers

UV ink, cleaning fluid, coating agent, AB film, varnish.
The main operating costs are as follows:
  • Ink cost: UV ink is relatively expensive, especially special effect inks (such as white ink, gold ink, etc.). Ink consumption is directly related to the printing area, resolution, ink layer thickness, etc.
  • Power consumption: UV printers consume a lot of power during operation, especially high-power industrial-grade equipment.
  • Maintenance cost: Including nozzle cleaning, ink circuit maintenance, parts replacement, etc.
Yes, UV printers can print on certain treated fabrics, but the results may not be as good as specialized textile printing technologies. If you primarily print fabric, I recommend considering a DTF (Direct Transfer Film) printer. DTF printers are able to provide longer-lasting, higher-quality prints on a variety of fabrics.
Outdoors, UV printing can last 2 to 5 years without fading, and indoors, it lasts longer. The duration depends on the material, environmental conditions, and usage.
