FAQ About UV Printing on Acrylic
What is UV printing on acrylic?
UV printing on acrylic means printing logos, images, text, or patterns directly onto acrylic products with a UV flatbed printer. It can be used for acrylic signs, photo panels, keychains, display boards, awards, and custom acrylic products.
Can acrylic products be printed in two different ways?
Yes. Acrylic products can be printed by direct UV printing or UV DTF transfer. Direct UV printing prints the design onto the acrylic surface. UV DTF transfer prints the design on UV DTF film first, then applies the printed sticker to the acrylic product.
Can a 6090 UV flatbed printer print acrylic pendants without a jig?
Yes. With visual positioning scanning, a 6090 UV flatbed printer can scan the shape and position of acrylic pendants placed on the platform. This helps print accurately without making a special jig or placing every piece in a fixed position.
How do you print a reverse image on clear acrylic?
For reverse printing on clear acrylic, the design is usually printed on the back side first, then white ink is added as a base layer. After turning the acrylic board over, the front side can show a clear image through the transparent acrylic surface.
Can UV printing create gold foil, varnish, or raised effects on acrylic?
Yes. A UV printer can print color, white ink, varnish, and raised effects on acrylic. For gold foil effects on acrylic, the printed varnish layer can be combined with a heat-press or laminating process to create a shiny metallic finish.
