What does a UV flatbed printer do

A UV flatbed printer is a high-end inkjet printer that prints graphics, text, and images of the highest quality straight onto flat surfaces using ultraviolet (UV) curing technology. A UV flatbed printer, in contrast to other print technologies, can print on a variety of porous and non-porous materials, including glass, metal, acrylic, foam boards, and plastic, among others.

A UV flatbed printer quickly cures the ink as it is applied to the substrate using a spread of UV LED lamps. Prints produced in this way are not only vivid and full of color, but also strong and scratch-resistant. UV flatbed printers are the perfect choice for printing on a variety of materials, including signage, displays, point-of-purchase materials, and more since they can print on both flat and uneven surfaces and generate high-quality prints.

Using sophisticated color management systems, UV flatbed printers generally come with software that enables users to quickly and reliably make high-quality prints with complex patterns, graphics, and photographs. They are perfect for companies who need to print in large quantities on a variety of materials for industrial and commercial purposes, including as plastic, wood, glass, and metal.
