The KTM-A57 UV printer represents a significant advancement in digital printing technology, offering a versatile platform for high-quality direct-to-substrate printing on a wide range of materials. This cutting-edge UV printer utilizes ultraviolet (UV) light to cure specially formulated inks instantly upon contact with the printing surface. This process eliminates drying time, allowing for immediate handling and finishing of printed materials, significantly increasing productivity.
At the heart of the KTM-A57 UV printer lies the sophisticated interplay of its key components. The process begins with the digital design file, which is processed by the powerful ONYX NeoStampa PP RIP software. This software optimizes the image for printing, ensuring accurate color reproduction and precise ink placement. The data is then transmitted to the printer via a dual Gigabit Ethernet connection, guaranteeing swift data transfer even for complex, high-resolution images.
The printer employs four Epson I3200HD micro-voltage printheads, renowned for their precision and longevity. These printheads jet microscopic droplets of UV ink onto the substrate according to the digital design. The KTM-A57 UV printer utilizes a CMYKOGBRWV ink configuration, providing a wide color gamut for vibrant and accurate color reproduction. The inclusion of white and varnish inks further expands the creative possibilities, enabling the creation of stunning effects like spot gloss and opaque white prints on transparent or colored media.
A key differentiating feature of the KTM-A57 UV printer is its versatility in handling various substrates. The three-station printing mode allows for printing on flat materials using the plate station, flexible rolls using the roller station, and even cylindrical objects using the cylinder station. This adaptability makes the KTM-A57 an ideal UV printer for a wide array of applications, from signage and displays to promotional items and customized packaging.
The precision of the printing process is further enhanced by the Z-axis automatic height measurement, ensuring optimal printhead distance from the substrate for consistent ink lay-down and sharp image quality, regardless of material thickness variations. The AI visual scanning positioning system further contributes to accurate print registration, particularly beneficial for multi-panel projects or printing on pre-cut substrates.
The UV curing process is instantaneous, thanks to the precisely controlled UV lamps integrated within the printer. As the ink droplets are deposited, they are immediately exposed to UV light, causing them to polymerize and solidify on the substrate's surface. This instant curing ensures sharp, vibrant prints with excellent adhesion and durability. The cured ink is also resistant to scratching, fading, and environmental factors, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
The KTM-A57 UV printer also boasts user-friendly features, including a one-button automatic cleaning system for the printheads. This automated maintenance system simplifies the cleaning process, reducing downtime and ensuring consistent print quality. The printer operates on a standard 220v power supply and is designed for optimal performance within a controlled environment (22-28℃ and 40%-60% humidity).
The KTM-A57 UV printer represents a significant investment for businesses looking to enhance their printing capabilities. Its versatile substrate handling, high-quality printing, and efficient workflow make it a compelling option for a wide range of applications. Whether producing vibrant signage, personalized promotional products, or intricate packaging designs, the KTM-A57 UV printer empowers businesses to deliver stunning results with exceptional efficiency.
