Configuration Advantages

1. As a professional manufacturer, Epson can produce print heads with high precision and high resolution up to 2880*1440dpi. Our large format UV flatbed inkjet printer is installed with double Epson print heads, which ensures clear and vivid printing. Based on dual print heads, it is able to realized CMYK+W printing and CMYK+CMYK printing. Due to adjustable height for print heads, the flatbed UV printer suits for printing on flat materials of varied thickness.

2. Support synchronous white ink printing and color printing on dark colored or transparent materials. This makes the UV flatbed inkjet printer a great solution for creating 3D printing effect on cell phone cases without changing of color depth.

3. Automated white ink circulation system ensures stable white ink printing. The ink level indicator system is controlled by an independent chip. It enables the UV inkjet printer to work continuously for a certain period of time in case of the ink is not filled timely.

4. The UV flatbed inkjet printer is fitted with Taiwan HIWIN guiderail, which offers um level positioning accuracy and extremely low friction coefficient. The guiderail boasts low requirement on drive motor, and enables the industrial digital printer to operate with low energy consumption, low wearing, high speed and low noise. It is easy for lubricating and convenient for maintenance.

5. The vacuum table, acquired from Foshan Yinmei Vacuum Board Company, features aluminum honeycomb structure design. It has light weight, max. carrying capacity of 100kg, and delivers strong but uniform vacuum absorption. The table surface undergoes hard anodizing and thus is resistant to wearing, scratch and corrosion. Its surface hardness reaches HV700, and the surface roughness is below 10dmm, meeting military standards.

6. The UV flatbed inkjet printer employs an imported UV LED curing system which adopts the advanced circulating water cooling system. The curing system has an ultra-long service life up to 60,000 hours, and features low power consumption and zero maintenance. The LED curing lamp supports instant lighting up without preheating, and delivers stable and uniform output.
