How It Works?
UV Printing makes use of UV sensitive inks and an ultraviolet (UV) light to cure or “dry” the ink as it is printed onto a variety of surfaces. This means that the the ink is dried instantly on the product without the need for lengthy drying times and degassing! This technology is often employed for high-quality, durable printing on materials like plastics, glass, metal, and wood. Overall, UV printing technology is valued for its speed, efficiency, and versatility, making it a popular choice for various commercial, industrial and hobbist printing needs.
Koenig Machinery’s UV Printers offer bed sizes in 600mm x 400mm or 600mm x 900mm with exceptional print quality when compared to printers such as HP, Mimaki, and Roland flat bed printers.

Range of Applications
Custom Signage: UV printers are excellent for producing vibrant and durable signs for both indoor and outdoor use. The quick drying time and resistance to fading make them ideal for creating high-impact, long-lasting signage.
Promotional Products: If you’re in the business of creating custom promotional items like branded gifts, business cards, or corporate giveaways, a UV printer can handle a variety of materials and deliver high-quality, personalized products.
Industrial Parts and Components: For manufacturing industries, UV printers can print directly on various substrates, including metal, plastic, and glass. This capability is useful for marking, labelling, and branding parts with high precision and durability.
Packaging: For businesses that require custom packaging solutions, UV printers can print directly on boxes, cartons, and other packaging materials. This technology enables high-resolution graphics and branding directly onto the packaging.
Personalized Gifts and Items: UV printing is ideal for creating personalized gifts such as custom phone cases, photo frames, or custom-printed glassware. The technology can handle intricate designs and various materials, making it perfect for bespoke items.
Short-Run and On-Demand Printing: UV printers are cost-effective for short-run and on-demand printing projects due to their quick setup and immediate curing. This is advantageous for businesses that need to produce small quantities or customize products quickly.
Benefits of UV Printing
UV printers offer a wide range of key benefits over traditional printing like screen printing and eco solvent printing making them a valuable tool in your workshop, warehouse, studio or garage!
UV printers can print on a wide range of materials, including plastics, glass, metal, wood, and more. This versatility makes them ideal for producing customized products and promotional items on diverse substrates.
UV printing technology uses ultraviolet light to instantly cure and dry the ink as it’s printed. This rapid curing process reduces production time, enhances efficiency, and eliminates the need for drying ovens or long curing periods.
The UV curing process ensures that the ink bonds strongly to the surface, resulting in vibrant colors and sharp details. UV prints are also highly resistant to fading, scratching, and weathering, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
UV printing is generally more eco-friendly compared to traditional printing methods because it uses less solvent and produces minimal VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Additionally, the precise application of ink reduces waste, contributing to a more sustainable printing process.
