What is solvent printing? How does eco-solvent printing work? What is needed in the solvent printing process?
Here you can find out everything you need to know if you want to expand your business with an eco-solvent printer.
The solvent printing process, also known as the solvent printing process, is often used in the advertising industry(sign & display).
A motif is printed directly onto a carrier material (e.g. banner) using solvent-based inks. The prints are resistant to sunlight, moisture and mechanical abrasion and can be used directly or further processed.
Solvent printing with an eco-solvent printer is ideal for the high-quality series production of sign & display graphics, banners, shop window stickers, foil stickers, foil labels, truck tarpaulins, foils for vehicle wrapping, information and advertising boards, mesh nets or mesh (e.g. construction fence banners) and much more.
Whether for indoor or outdoor use, Mutoh solvent prints can be used to create high-quality volume productions of sign & display graphics: signage, stickers and labels, interior decoration, soft signage, art prints and more.
Eco-solvent prints are resistant to sunlight, moisture and mechanical abrasion. If the prints are subsequently laminated, the UV resistance can also be improved.
The MS51 eco-solvent inks from Mutoh are not subject to labeling according to REACH. The inks are GBL-free and enable printing without the release of ozone. The inks are GREENGUARD Gold certified and are therefore suitable for low-emission operation in retail stores, offices, schools and other indoor spaces and other institutions or authorities.
The motif is applied directly to the substrate by the print head of the solvent printer. As the inks are solvent-based, the solvents evaporate quickly and leave the color pigments on the material. A heating element or an additional drying unit in the printer can speed up the drying process and improve the adhesion of the ink.
After printing, the material can be further processed. This can include cutting, laminating or other finishing steps, depending on the area of application.
