Next, let's make a detailed analysis around this problem!
1、UV printer has powerful functions: it can output computer data to UV printer and directly spray print on objects.
(1) Pictures can be sprayed on any material. Such as: gold silver copper iron aluminum plate, crystal material, wood, glass plate, leather, cloth, stone, etc.
(2) You can spray print pictures on irregular surfaces. Such as: mobile phone, telephone, USB flash disk, glass, vase, pen, etc.
(3) Cylindrical objects can be sprayed. Such as: glass, vase, pen, etc.
(4) Object height: 0 ~ 20cm
(5) No intermediate consumables. Such as: transfer paper, crystal glue, crystal film, high temperature adhesive tape, heat transfer equipment.
(6) Scope of application:
A. franchise stores, photo galleries, wedding studios, scenic spots, hospitals, schools, etc.
B. Industrial application: for sample proofing and mass production of products in plastic, electronics, hardware, plexiglass and other industries, it has the characteristics of rapid sampling and doubled processing cost.
2、Comparison between UV printer and traditional special printing
（1） Disadvantages of traditional special printing:
1. Phenanthrene screen plate making cost is high and printing cost is expensive;
2. The color is complex and cannot be modified once the version is finalized;
3. The process is cumbersome and the production cycle is long;
4. Screen printing plate making costs are high, screen printing points cannot be eliminated, and mass production is required to reduce costs;
5. Thermal transfer printing uses thermal sublimation ink to print the picture on the transfer paper first, and then transfer it to the media surface. There are several difficult problems: color deviation and positioning deviation. The picture of the finished product is also easy to scrape off and has poor firmness. Generally, a layer of protective film needs to be sprayed. In addition, flexographic printing is also required for transfer printing of special media.
6. Traditional signs are usually made by engraving + corrosion + color paint filling, or by laser engraving. Only monochrome signs can be made, but there is nothing to do with color patterns.
7. The waste rate of multiple overprint is high and the color deviation is large.
8. Skilled printers with many years of experience are required.
9. More personnel are needed, and the proportion of manual production is high.
（2） Advantages of UV printer:
1. It is applicable to any material and has a wide range of compatibility.
2. No plate making, fast printing and low cost. Various output software can be used to support various file formats.
3. Equipped with professional color management software, you can change the color anytime and anywhere without paying extra cost.
4. One step completion, namely printing and taking, to meet the needs of rapid sample and finished products.
5. The unit price starts printing, and large quantities can be matched with template printing, saving time and labor.
6. Full color image, one-time completion, progressive color, fully achieve the effect of photo quality, accurate positioning, and the scrap rate is zero.
7. It only takes 30 minutes to master and make high-quality products without professional skills.
8. Computer operation, no personnel dependence, large upgrade space.
3、 Why do UV printers make so much money? This is closely related to the application scope and industry of UV printers
