UV-LED and aqueous inks are the leading high-quality inkjet inks for the digital printing industry because they produce fast, efficient and cost-effective results. Compatible with a wide range of applications, both options can enhance print productivity. Understanding the distinct differences and benefits each ink offers can help you determine which inkjet technology is best for your business and market needs. The following information discusses what each ink type is and some of the key differences between them. UV-LED Inkjet Inks UV inkjet inks are liquid until the ink is exposed to UV-LED light shortly after it touches the substrate. This process cures the ink almost immediately and forms a durable film on top of the substrate. The ink is not absorbed into the substrate, but cures on top of the material. UV-LED lamps provide a deep penetrating light source that allows for better adhesion to thicker substrates. This often results in UV inks that produce vibrant, long-lasti...
