Nº03UV
Unlike our giclée printers which are roll-fed and use pigment inks, our UV printing facility uses a flatbed and can print up to 2.5 x 1.25m. Its unique selling point is that it can print on any flat substrate that is no thicker than 50mm (2 inches), such as wood, leather, acrylic, canvas and even more unusual substrates such as stone. Utilising a set of UV lamps that are positioned either side of the bank of 7 print heads, as soon as the inks hit the substrate, they are immediately cured or dried by the UV lights, meaning that substrates such as glass can be successfully printed on where previously the ink would run before drying.
