UV Curing technology is highly proficient in the printing industry.

In recent years, with the continuous development and maturity of UV inks and [UVLED Curing] technology, coupled with the country’s requirements for environmentally friendly production, the application of UV inks and UV curing technology in the printing field has been promoted, and good results have been achieved.

UVLED curing machine manufacturers produce UVLED curing machines with characteristics such as rapid curing, high efficiency, low pollution, and energy conservation. They have also developed and produced corresponding high-power curing systems for the printing industry, so they have a considerable number of customers in the printing industry. With the communication and cooperation with customers in the printing industry, today we will share with you the specific application points of UV curing technology in the current printing industry. If you are also a customer in the printing industry, you must continue reading!

Which printing industries use UV curing technology

1. Application of UV curing technology in large-format inkjet printing:

With the popularization of UV inks, an increasing number of printing manufacturers are currently adopting UV curing technology in inkjet printing. Among them, the field where UV inkjet printing technology is most applied is the large-format printing market.

Compared with the large-format printing market, in other fields such as variable data printing of direct mail letters, and printing barcodes or numbers on labels or product packaging, the usage of UV inkjet is relatively small. In the large-format printing field, UV inks paired with UVLED curing machines can enhance the durability of images and improve the operating performance of print heads, enabling printing on a wider range of substrates.

2. Application in the industrial or decorative printing field:

UV curing technology can be used for direct printing and curing on materials such as glass, metal, plastic, and ceramic without the need to pre-treat the surface of the substrate. Therefore, people are beginning to be willing to adopt UV inks paired with UV curing machines in the industrial application or decorative printing field.

As more and more printing practitioners recognize the advantages of using UV curing technology, the growth rate of the current UV inkjet printing market has become quite rapid.

3. Application in the label printing and packaging printing fields:

UV curing technology also has advantages in the label printing and packaging printing fields. Now some label and packaging printing users highly value the advantages of UV inks. When some label printers rely on expensive ribbon off-line thermal transfer printers for single-color variable data printing, UV inkjet and curing technology can already perform on-line high-speed printing and can completely replace thermal transfer printers.

4. Application in other fields:

Silk fabrics are also trying to use UV curing technology. UV inkjet printing and UV curing technology can also be used to make signs, logos, and large-format promotional advertisements for trade shows.

The continuously enhanced digital printing capabilities have become the most basic requirement of the current printing market for printers. It is predicted that the annual growth rate of UV inkjet printing will exceed 25% in the next three years. For many printers, they should realize that using UV inkjet printing and UV curing technology is the general trend.
