UV curing is a printing technology used mainly in packaging industry, as it can be applied on any material. This printing technology is employed for creating attractive packing, so that market value of the packaged material can be enhanced. Our company, Grafik Machinery International, makes available interdeck/ end of press UV curing system, which can be attached to offset machine of any make and size. UV inks can be dried instantly with the installed dried between the printing units of a press. UV curable inks are ideal for printing on non-absorbent surface. Interdeck/ end of press UV curing system cures the first UV coat before applying the second one in case when special effect abrasive UV coating is to be applied on the printed surface.
