1. POP display board
POP display boards are one of the most important applications for wide-format images, including digital inkjet printing and printing or screen printing, which together account for 42% of the wide-format image market. UV ink is directly printed on hard boards, such as KT board, acrylic board, plexiglass board, etc., which reduces the trouble of coating, fading, and blistering, and saves a lot of labor.
2. Hard signage
The production of rigid signs is very similar to POP, and it is also a beneficiary of flatbed printers. Flatbed printers using UV inks can be directly sprayed onto the final signage materials, such as metal, wood, plastic, and so on. Compared with the traditional method: inkjet printing or printing on the adhesive-backed film material and then pasting it, not only reduce the process, reduce costs, but also increase the degree of firmness.
3. Cardboard or corrugated packaging
Another very specific target application area for flatbed printers is packaging, a large industry that is expected to exceed $ 80 billion in the global market. Packaging companies that mainly use aniline printing, screen printing and stencil printing can purchase flatbed printers for proofing and direct output for small batch customized customers.
4. Professional market (special products and decoration market)
The last application area is the professional market, or the personalized market. Toilet cover inkjet painting belongs to this market. Other potential opportunities are: glass, ceramics, wooden boards, and even furniture. In general: we should first aim at the low-efficiency, low-volume manual or semi-automatic screen printing market. Flatbed printers are more suitable for small-scale personalized production, and the cost of traditional production is high, especially A high raw material inventory cost.
If there are thousands of flatbed printers installed worldwide, it is obvious that flatbed printers have a quantifiable and growing market. In the not-too-distant future, because the production capacity of manufacturers cannot meet market demand, many customers will wait a long time after placing orders. Based on this optimistic understanding of the flatbed printer market, in the future, flatbed printers will be ubiquitous and more popular than inkjet systems.
Environmental UV ink
Flatbed inkjet printers use UV inks. As countries attach great importance to environmental protection, environmentally-friendly equipment and auxiliary media will have stricter market regulations. It is worth mentioning here the benefits of using UV inks, which are characterized by stable printing, bright colors, high curing strength, low curing energy, and environmental protection without odor. The multi-applicability and wide application prospects of UV inks provide customers with more development opportunities.
