Direct-To-Object printing (or DTO printing) is a distinct form of digital print that uses ultraviolet (UV), light to cure and dry ink almost as quickly as it is applied on a substrate. This unique UV printing process is very special. The substrate can include flat objects and any domed or cylindrical objects. It can be made of metals, acrylics, plastic, glass and canvas. After the UV ink has been applied to the substrate, the special ultraviolet lights in the printer immediately apply the ink to the material, drying it, and adhering to it to the substrate.

The UV printing process was initially developed for gel nail polishes. A UV light is used after the gel polish has been applied to cure it onto the nails. It results in a fast-drying, flawless manicure. The benefits of UV light applications began to expand and were now used in the commercial and industrial markets. This is the basis of UV printing services, and the associated printing industry. This technology is used to produce flyers, leaflets and screen printing. UV printing is very similar to traditional printing. But the inks used as well the drying and curing methods are different. This is due to the unique nature of the printing technology.

With traditional printing, solvent inks are applied to a substrate, and heat is used to cure the ink. Solvent-based solvent inks can evaporate, spread onto the substrate and then release volatile organic compound (VOCs). An unpleasant odor is caused by heat that cures the solvent ink. Additionally, solvent inks can absorb into the substrate and cause color fade. Spray powders can also prevent ink from drying and offsetting, which can lead to a slow and tedious process. Traditional printing is generally limited to paper and similar materials due to the nature of the printing press. It can't be used on metal, plastic, glass or acrylic.

For UV printing, UV inks that are specifically designed for this purpose can be used. Instead of heat, high-intensity LED ultraviolet lights are used to cure the ink onto the medium that it is printed www32.zippyshare.com/v/vuit2LnV/file.html on. The ink is spread onto the substrate by the ultraviolet light. No matter what substrate is used, the ink will dry quickly. The ink does not evaporate because it dries quickly. Therefore, it can't spread onto the material that it is printed on.

In addition to the quick-drying capabilities and the eco-friendliness of UV printing, this ultraviolet printing method and the associated form of ink transfer can also be used with various materials, including paper, plastic, foil, acrylic, foam, etc. There are no VOCs or ozone emissions into the atmosphere. This feature will interest companies that prize sustainability in their printing processes.

Imagine all the possibilities when digitally printing is possible on an item. Instead of using a sticker to attach to the object, you can imagine the possibilities. DTO Direct-To-Object lets you print in full-color directly to the object.
