What is Cylindrical UV Printing?

Cilindrical UV printing is a digital process designed for decorating round or tapered objects. Using specially adapted product rotation mechanisms on standard multipass printers or by using a faster but less flexible single pass cilindrical machine, these systems apply full 360° artwork directly onto curved surfaces—with instant UV curing for fast and durable results.

Our cylindrical solutions can print on:

  • Plastics (PP, PET, ABS, etc.)
  • Metals (aluminum, stainless steel, etc.)
  • Glass & ceramics (bottles, jars, vials, etc.)
  • And many other materials used in industrial production

Which Technology Fits Your Product?

Single pass Cilindrical UV Printing

Designed for maximum print speed and ideal for high volume runs. The product is rotated fast under the slow-moving print head and the image is transferred in one pass of the print head. 

Multipass Cilindrical UV Printing

Designed for maximum detail and flexibility. Ideal for shorter runs, variable data, and complex graphics. The print head moves back and forth while the object rotates in between steps for layered, high-resolution results.

Unsere Problemlösungen.

Thermische decals

Een op voorhand gezeefdrukt label laat zijn drukbeeld los door middel van warmte. Een verwarmde tampon neemt het drukbeeld op en plaatst het op uw product gemaakt uit glas of keramiek. Daarna kan dit label worden ingebakken voor een duurzaam resultaat.

Tampondruk

Een tampon gemaakt uit siliconerubber neemt inkt op uit een uitgeëtst cliché en brengt dit over op uw product. Omdat de tampon uit een vervormbaar materiaal is gemaakt en er talloze verschillende soorten inkten beschikbaar zijn is dit een ideale oplossing voor het bedrukken van zowat alle materialen en vormen.

Foliedruk

Door middel van een verwarmde stempel wordt een laagje gekleurde folie aangebracht op kunststof, hout, of metaal. Het drukbeeld is uitgefreesd in de stempel.
