In today’s era full of personalized and customized needs, crystal labels printed by UV flatbed DTF printers
have shown a wide range of application prospects in many industries with their unique advantages. This pressure sensitive UV transfer paste not only has the texture of 3D relief effect, but also has the characteristics of bright colors, strong three-dimensional sense and high gloss, which brings a new solution for product packaging and personalized decoration. This paper will deeply discuss the specific application performance of UV flatbed printer printing crystal labels.
- The process characteristics of crystal labeling
Crystal label is a kind of pressure transfer paste made by UV flatbed printer, and its unique process characteristics make it become the new darling of the printing industry.
First of all, the crystal label realizes the convenience of “one paste, one tear and use”, perfectly solves the vacancy of irregular shape printing, and breaks through the limitation that the pattern can only be printed flat. Whether it is the special-shaped bottle or the outer packaging of various materials, the crystal label can almost be transferred, and there is no quantity limit of the batch, one can be printed, effectively reducing the difficulty of special-shaped printing and the pain point of small-batch customization.
Secondly, compared with ordinary labels, crystal labels have significant advantages of bright patterns, rich colors, strong three-dimensional sense and high gloss. It is easy to carry and separate when transferring, leaving no residue, making the labeling process smoother. In addition, the introduction of UV printing technology not only improves production efficiency, but also greatly reduces pollution. Compared with traditional processes such as screen printing and transfer printing, the use of UV ink makes the printing process more environmentally friendly and reduces the emission of harmful gases.
