New breakthrough in printing with digital inkjet cylindrical UV printers
This device is specially designed for cylindrical objects such as glassware, bottles, jars, and thermoses. It can achieve 360° full-wrapped high-definition printing without the need for molds and platemaking. It is widely used in scenarios such as food and beverage packaging, beauty bottle decoration, gift thermos customization, and home glassware beautification, providing companies with "efficient, flexible, and low-cost" personalized solutions for cylindrical objects.
Compatible with all sizes of cylinders, covering diverse cylindrical object scenarios.
Traditional cylindrical printing relies on screen printing or thermal transfer. The former requires custom screens for different diameters (costing 500-2000 yuan per screen) and only accommodates fixed diameters. The latter is prone to pattern stretching and deformation and has strict limitations on curved surfaces. This digital inkjet cylindrical UV printer utilizes an "adjustable fixture + servo rotation system" to flexibly accommodate cylindrical objects of varying diameters and heights:
Diameter coverage ranges from 30mm to 150mm: From narrow-necked essential oil bottles (30mm diameter), food cans (66mm diameter), to thermoses (70-100mm diameter), and glass vases (150mm diameter), all can be quickly secured by adjusting the fixture without replacing core components.
Height compatibility ranges from 50mm to 300mm: Supporting full-size printing, from short, plump sauce jars (50mm height) to tall, slender wine bottles (300mm height). The elevating print head ensures complete printing of patterns on objects of varying heights.
UV Fast Curing + Durable Ink Film, Balancing Efficiency and Quality
The core performance advantage of this device lies in the synergy between UV printing technology and specialized UV inks, achieving breakthroughs in both printing efficiency and product durability:
UV Fast Curing, Print and Remove
Equipped with a UV LED curing system, the ink fully cures within 0.5 seconds after being sprayed onto a cylindrical surface, completely eliminating the slow drying and smearing issues of traditional inks. For example, when printing on thermos mugs, the packaging can be removed immediately after completion, eliminating the need to wait for drying. For mass production, this device enables a "load-print-cure-unload" flow line, achieving an hourly output of 80-120 units (using thermos mugs as an example), a 100% increase in efficiency compared to thermal transfer printing equipment (40-50 units per hour). A custom gift manufacturer reported that using this device to produce custom holiday thermos mugs increased their daily production capacity from 300 to 800 units, enabling them to meet peak order volumes during peak season without the need for additional equipment.
Durable ink film adapts to diverse needs.
Using specialized UV-curable ink, the cured ink film exhibits excellent adhesion, corrosion resistance, and abrasion resistance. Designs printed on glassware showed zero peeling in the 100-grid test (an adhesion test standard) and showed no fading after 50 washes. Logos printed on thermos bottles withstood immersion in 100°C water without cracking and achieved a scratch resistance of 3H pencil hardness (compared to the industry standard of 2H). A home furnishing company printed cartoon designs on glass drinking glasses. The products, despite daily use and washing, remained vibrant six months later, and customer repurchase rates increased from 60% to 85%. A beer brand used this device to print limited-edition designs on cans. The ink film withstood the cold storage and bumpy transportation of the beer without peeling, becoming a market hit.
High-definition color reproduction + intelligent operation lowers the barrier to customization.
To meet the demands for both image quality and convenience for personalized customization, the device has been deeply optimized in terms of color performance and operational design:
1200dpi high-definition printing, zero-error details.
Equipped with an industrial-grade print head (optional XP600/i3200), it boasts a native resolution of 1200dpi and supports variable ink drop control from 3.5pl to 14pl, accurately reproducing complex patterns and delicate textures. For example, when printing landscape paintings on glass vases, leaf veins and lines are clear and free of jagged edges. When printing portraits on thermos mugs, skin tones are naturally transitioned, and hair details are clearly discernible. A cultural and creative studio customized a "photo thermos mug" for a client. The portraits printed using this device achieved over 95% reproduction accuracy, a stark contrast to the blurred effect of traditional thermal transfer printing, leading to a 60% increase in orders. Smart Operation: Beginners Can Get Started in 1 Hour.
Equipped with a 10-inch touchscreen and pre-set programs such as "Glass Mode," "Metal Mode," and "Plastic Mode," the device automatically adjusts the rotation speed, print height, and curing parameters by simply importing a design and selecting the material and size. Wireless file transfer between computers and mobile phones allows designers to modify design details on-site without the need for repeated export and copying. The head of a startup packaging company stated that their team had no experience with cylindrical printing, but with the device's built-in tutorial and remote customer service guidance, they were able to independently print glass jars in under an hour, eliminating the need for specialized technical training.
Utilizing multiple industry scenarios, it's driving the upgrade of cylindrical object customization.
Leveraging its full-size adaptability, high efficiency, durability, high definition, and convenient features, this digital inkjet cylindrical UV printer has been widely adopted across multiple industries, driving the transition from "standardized" to "personalized" cylindrical object processing.
As the consumer market's demand for personalized, niche, and customized products continues to grow, demand for customized cylindrical objects, a key component of packaging, gifts, and home furnishings, continues to grow. This digital inkjet cylindrical UV printer, with its combined advantages of "full-size adaptability, efficient UV curing, and high-definition and convenient printing," not only overcomes the limitations of traditional processes but also, with its low barrier to entry and high efficiency, helps companies quickly enter the cylindrical customization market, accelerating the industry's transition from "mass production" to "personalized intelligent manufacturing" and bringing greater creativity and value to cylindrical objects.
