Little energy consumption
Environmental-friendly
Space saving
Great design options
Scratch-proof
Overprintable and overstampable
Excellent edge definition
Resistant to all major test procedure

UV inks have a drying time measured in seconds, which is also known as radical curing. This offers the possibility of printing at speeds that have not been possibl with solvent-based inks. For industrial applications, in particular, much higher cycle times can be achieved on modern, high-speed machines.
In addition, the use of UV inks permits the perfect reproduction of the print output for subsequent orders.
Since the ink contains no volatile components and the viscosity does not change (shade shift) a consistent batch print equality can be achieved.
The fact that the ink does not dry in the screen permits the faultless printing of the smallest details and half-tones. This is a very positive feature for long print runs and multiple elements, in particular.
These advantages ensure that a positive increase in productivity is possible in many application areas. They ensure improved economic and competitive attributes when dealing with long print run or high throughput (faster processing/packing).
The unrestricted screen permeability of UV inks is an additional positive argument in favour of these ink systems for screen printer. Downtime is considerably decreased during the printing process.
The 'absence' of solvent is very user-friendly and is another reason for using UV inks.
