UV coating machine for printing uses a special varnishing process in which we cure the varnish by exposure to ultraviolet light rather than heat. UV coating varnish machine results in a more durable, protective, and slick-looking finish than standard varnishing.
As with printing varnish, UV coating varnishing machines are glossy in the resulting finish. They can also be applied to the entire surface or to specific areas to emphasize or highlight an element of the design, in which case the equipment is called "spot UV coating machine". The UV coating material is water-based and applied using special printing machines equipped with an ultraviolet drying space. As light cures the coating rather than heat, it dries faster than standard varnishes and results in a more resilient surface.
A UV coating machine, also known as a UV coater, is commonly designed to enhance the appearance and durability of printed materials. The process begins by feeding the printed sheets into the machine, where a liquid UV coating is applied evenly across the surface. This coating can be either glossy or matte, depending on the desired finish.
Once the coating is applied, the sheets pass under ultraviolet (UV) lamps. These lamps emit UV light, which instantly cures and hardens the coating. This rapid curing process not only speeds up production but also ensures a smooth, high-quality finish that is resistant to scratches, smudges, and other forms of wear and tear.
As an essential piece of post press equipment, UV coating equipment are versatile and can handle a variety of substrates, including paper, cardboard, and plastic. They are widely used in industries such as packaging, publishing, and commercial printing to add a professional touch to products like brochures, business cards, and book covers.
Investing in a UV coater can significantly elevate the quality of your printed materials, making them more appealing and durable. Contact EX.EXPORT today to learn more about our range of UV coating equipment and how it can benefit your business!
