The introduction of UV-LED curing was initially met with some skepticism. Today, innovations in the technology benefit wide-format printers and more.
UV-curable inks react to controlled wavelengths of ultraviolet (UV) light to form a solid film on the surface of a substrate. Screen printers have used UV-curable inks for years to print text and graphics on durable indoor and outdoor signs, safety labels, fleet markings, and industrial parts.
But changing the mechanisms for how UV light is delivered to the inks has profoundly improved the efficiency, sustainability, …
