Solvent inks and eco solvent inks The core of printing is the ink used, solvent ink and eco solvent ink, they are both solvent-based ink, but  eco solvent ink is environmentally friendly .   Solvent ink "Strong solvent" or "full solvent" ink is an oil-based solution containing pigments and resins. The high VOC (volatile organic compound) content requires ventilation and extraction to protect the printer operator, and many of them retain a distinctive lingering odor on PVC or other substrates that makes the image unsuitable for people to use indoors close enough to the sign to notice the odor.   Eco solvent ink Eco solvent ink is derived from ether extracts of refined mineral oils and have relatively low VOC content by comparison, and can even be used in studio and office environments, provided there is adequate ventilation. They are virtually odorless, so they can often be used with interior graphics and signage. Their chemicals do not a...

If you are using a new printer for the first time, you may not be familiar with the type of cartridges your printer uses. Each printer uses a specific printer cartridge family for printing. The printer cartridge family is identified by the printer brand name and cartridge number. 1. The easiest way to determine which cartridges are appropriate for your printer is to turn on the printer and see which cartridges are currently in the machine. 2. If there are no cartridges inside the printer, you can search for the printer model on the manufacturer's website. The manufacturer's page for your printer should contain a list of compatible cartridges. 3. You can also refer to the printer user guide that came with your machine to identify the cartridge series.    Recognizing individual Cartridges for Epson As you know, each type use individual cartridges for Epson printers , which means that each cartridge contains a specific color of ink. This is different from HP's thre...

Just because a UV LED printer dries out ink instantly doesn't mean it affects the quality of the job. In fact, it only enhances it further. Although the technology incorporates instant drying, it ensures that the ink does not sink into the material. In turn, colors are sharper, brighter and more vivid. Sharper colors make the image stand out and grab the reader's attention. For example, if you are a watchmaking company, sharper and more vivid colors will highlight the most subtle aspects of the various products offered and resonate visually, regardless of the material on which it is printed. A common and sometimes unavoidable problem in older printing techniques is ink shedding. This is when unwanted ink is transferred from one sheet of print to another. However, in UV LED printing, the ink sticking is eliminated because it is an instant drying process, which means there is no need for an anti-adhesive powder spray and the finished product will not have any unwanted marks.   UV...

Looking around, print is everywhere, from books to flyers, brochures to labels - all of these items rely on print to convey their message. UV LED printing is quietly emerging as a popular technology. So what does the future hold for UV LED printing?   UV LED ink UV LED ink  differs from traditional UV free radical ink in the formulation. Special consideration of photoinitiators and pigments in the formulation These special photoinitiators absorb at a higher wavelength as opposed to traditional These special photoinitiators absorb at a higher wavelength as opposed to traditional photoinitiators and are typically more expensive.   Fast turnaround time If companies had a choice, they would obviously choose to print their projects as quickly as possible, but older printing technologies used to take a lot of time to produce. UV LED printers do not, because the instant drying process means that there is no longer a need to wait for the ink to dry, and there is no longer a need ...

UV printing is a form of digital printing that uses a UV ink   that, once exposed to the wavelengths of UV light, cures into a solid film that bonds firmly directly to the substrate. Originally developed to quickly dry gel nail polish during a manicure, UV applications quickly expanded into the industrial and commercial markets. Because UV cures any printing ink immediately, dots of wet ink have no chance to spread after printing, resulting in finer detail. In addition, UV-cured inks are weather resistant and have greater resistance to fading. This curing process is more environmentally friendly because it produces very little VOC, odor and heat. Aluminum. In fact, this UV flatbed printer is compatible with most substrates up to 2 inches thick! We love UV printing. It's fast curing, high quality, durable and flexible.   When is UV printing the right choice? 1. When environmental impact is a concern Because evaporation is minimized, much less volatile organic compounds are rele...

  Functional advantages of UV flatbed printers 1. Large format graphics Up to 4' x 8' - and 2" thick, compatible with rigid and flexible materials - including acrylic, ABS, Clopid, aluminum, foam board.   2. Second side printing Printing on the back side of clear materials gives depth and adds a glossy appearance.   3. UV printing increases the durability/longevity of graphics UV printing can be durable.  This depends on the substrate and the UV inks used.  Typically, UV inks are developed in a variety of formulations to meet consumer demand for durability. Hard UV inks are used for hard substrates, i.e. those that do not want to bend or stretch. Flexible UV inks, however, are used for bending and stretching items because the ink is formulated to be more flexible.   4. Transparent ink High gloss, the ability to add texture using transparent inks that are only added to certain areas of the print.   5. Can print on multiple substrates The materials that ...

DTF printing is direct-to-film printing, which is a supplement to the inkjet garment decoration process. Even white ink does not require pretreatment. It is very convenient for customized DIY printing market. What is DTF? DTF is an alternative printing process for DTG. The film was printed using a specific type of water-based ink.It was then dried with powdered glue on the back and then heat cured for storage or immediate use. One of the benefits of DTF is that there is no need to use pretreatment. DTF cannot do this. The powdered glue does the job for you. After hot pressing, the soft water-based ink is transferred to the garment in about 15 seconds. Transfer is most suitable for polyester and other non-cotton fabrics that are difficult to print with traditional DTG printing. DTG is mainly designed for cotton garments printing. DTF is difficult to replace DTG for cotton printing. However, due to its low level of investment in its independent version or fully automated system for mass ...
