Features of This Machine

This machine uses UV ink and then irradiates with UV light after printing to cure and adhere the ink.

You can use the flat table to print on a range of objects, from thin paper to thick objects. This machine is also equipped with a deodorizer to reduce the odor of the UV ink.

The differences from a generic printer are as follows:
  • The print-head carriage and flat table move.

    The print-head carriage (A) moves left to right (S: scan direction) and the flat table (B) moves back and forth (F: feed direction) to print. The flat table moves up and down to adjust the printing surface (position in height direction). However, it is not possible to print on an inclined print surface while changing the height.

  • You can set the height and printing position of the print surface.

    The head gap sensor (A) detects the height of the object placed on the flat table, and then adjusts the height of the print surface (the height direction position of the flat table) to ensure high image quality and safe printing. You can also use the pointer (B) to precisely specify the printing area.
