Characteristics of acrylic sheet:
Acrylic sheet is characterized with high transparency like crystal and its transparency is over 92%, which has a colorful showing effect by applying dyeing materials on the acrylic sheet. In addition, acrylic sheet is characterized with the best outdoor durability, higher hardness and glossy on the surface, and better high-temperature resistant. Also acrylic sheet is with high processability, which cannot only adopt thermal forming (Including mold forming, blow molding, and vacuum forming), but it can also adopt machinery processing methods such as drilling, lathing, and cutting, etc.
Mechanical cutting and engraving controlled by microcomputer not only greatly improve the processing precision, but it can also produce patterns and shapes that cannot be completed by traditional method. What’s more, acrylic sheet can adopt laser engraving and laser cutting to make products with special fantastic effects.
The transparency of transparent acrylic sheet can be compared with glass, but the density of acrylic sheet is only just one-third than that of glass. Besides, acrylic sheet cannot be easily fragile than glass, even it is broken, which it cannot form sharp fragment like glass does. Acrylic is not as ‘fragile’ as glass. And the impact resistant is 200 times as strong as ordinary glass, which almost cannot be broken. And ability of load-bearing can be changed according to its thickness, which is more thicker and more stronger. But the cooling capacity of acrylic sheet is relatively poor. This kind of material cannot scratched by sharp objects. But it is easy to recover from the scratches, which you just need wipe ordinary white toothpaste.
And acrylic sheet is almost the same wear resistance with aluminum, which can irregularly endure the corrosion by various chemicals. Acrylic sheet is characterized with better ability of printing and coating. Acrylic sheet can be given to produce ideal effect of surface decoration if it can adopt appropriate printing (Such as printing by UV flatbed printer) and spraying technology.
Acrylic sheet can be specially remolded to absorbing a lot of ultraviolet light, and flame retardant acrylic sheet can help overcome fire hazard on some special places. The impact resistant acrylic sheet with high impact resistant function which is 6-10 times as strong as ordinary acrylic sheet. Also supreme wear resistant acrylic sheet is specially processed on the surface can withstand extremely harsh tests. All of above acrylic sheets can be used as printing materials of UV flatbed printer.
Everyone knows acrylic sheet advertising materials as well. And acrylic sheet UV printers are aiming at any kind of advertising materials, which can print on the surface of all kind of advertising materials without any limits. For example, acrylic advertising signs, wood, glass, crystal, metal, PVC, ABS, plastic, stone, leather, cloth and other textiles, etc. for digital color UV printing. No matter it is simple image of color lump, full color image or gradient color. Acrylic sheet UV flatbed printer (UV flatbed printer) is a multi-functional machine, it is widely used in many industries such as advertising industry UV printing, gift industry UV printing, glass industry UV printing, personalized UV printing industry, and packaging industry UV printing, etc.
If you have an acrylic sheet printer (UV flatbed printer), you can undertake more business in many industries, because it prints without any limits. It can replace the silkscreen printing machine, pad printing machine and transfer printing machine. There is no need plate making and color combination, which can produce higher quality products than that of traditional printing. Also acrylic sheet UV printer (UV flatbed printer) can be operated easily with higher stability and it can printout directly from computer. Acrylic sheet printer (UV flatbed printer) totally can meet the demand of bulk production in different industries, which significantly improve the market competitiveness of your products.
How to solve the UV ink problems of adhesion, waterproof and scratch proof for acrylic sheet UV flatbed printer:
The UV ink of acrylic sheet UV flatbed printer can be printed on any surface. But adhesion force from different materials is different. For example, wooden material, and leather material, which those kinds of materials are with better adhesion and printing images cannot easily fade away by UV flatbed printing. But like glass, crystal, metal, ceramic, etc. which those kinds of materials are with relatively large density, adhesion of images printed by UV flatbed printer are little weak.
If you want to make UV printing image adhesion for acrylic sheet UV flatbed printer more stronger, you can increase its adhesion by pre-treatment and post-treatment. For example, acrylic sheet materials on the surface can be coated by professional coating before printed by acrylic sheet UV flatbed printer, which the coating definitely increase the effect of adhesion. So printing image adhesion will be stronger after printing by UV flatbed printer. Or you can coat a layer of varnish on the surface of acrylic sheet materials after printing to directly prevent images from reaction with the environmental touch. On some problems of increasing adhesion of images and scratch resistant, there are still a lot of technologies such as printing on double side glass, which keeps images between the two sides of glass to protect the images from peeling off forever.
After solving the problems of images adhesion, there is still a problem that most of customers are faced with the images cannot be waterproof. The best way to solve this problem is that you can coat a layer of varnish on the completed printing materials. UV varnish cannot only increase the adhesion of images, but it can be also waterproof, which won’t make beautiful images fade away on the condition of reaction with water.
