Yes, it is possible to print on wood using a УФ-плоский принтер. В printer applies UV-curable ink on the wood surface. В ink is then cured by ultraviolet light while printing. Examples of prints on wood are individual, personalized wooden signs, decorative panels, photo blocks etc. Also other promotional items are printed on wood.Print quality is determined by the wood surface. A smooth, clean and flat board will provide the best results, whereas rough or warped boards can affect print quality.How Does UV Printing Work on Wood?УФ-плоский принтерs print onto objects placed on a print bed, while a print carriage travels across the object’s surface. В UV light in the printer cures the ink as it is printed, to create prints on objects such as wooden boards, suitable for printing with rigid materials.УФ-плоский принтерs are different от roll-to-roll printers because instead of printing continuous rolls of flexible material, they print one board or object at a time. More on the difference between УФ-плоский принтерs and roll-to-roll printersWhat Wood Can You Print On?For making signs, there are many different materials available, including solid wood, plywood, MDF and coated panels. Smooth surface materials are great for producing signs with fine lines and photographic images. Rough timber signs can have the grain show through the ink and sometimes even tiny letters can be hard to read. However, rough timber can be used to produce rustic signs.Test the material you want to use for your order. В same artwork will need to have different settings for a coated plywood panel and an unfinished piece of timber.UV Flatbed Printing vs. Традиционная экранная печатьFeature / MethodDirect UV Flatbed PrintingТрадиционная экранная печатьРазрешение печатиSupports fine details and photographic imagesDepends on screen mesh and printing setupColor CapabilityFull-color designs and gradientsMultiple colors may require separate screensВремя настройкиNo screen preparation requiredRequires screen preparation and registrationПродолжительностьDepends on ink adhesion, curing, and wood surfaceDepends on ink type, curing, and surface conditionsShort-Run CustomizationSuitable for one-off and small-batch ordersOften less economical for small customized ordersNatural Wood TextureВ wood grain can show through depending on the amount of ink coverage.Texture visibility depends on ink coverageHow Do You Prepare Wood for Direct Printing?Dust, moisture, loose wood fibers and uneven surfaces can cause printing defects or even reject the board. To avoid such problems and to reduce waste, it is important to prepare the material for printing properly and in a way that allows for good consistency.Clean and Secure the SurfaceDust, grit and other debris must be removed от the surface of the wood prior to printing. If necessary, lightly sand the wood to a smooth finish. Make sure the board is completely dry before commencing print. While some finishes require a primer or other surface treatment, do not assume that all boards will require the same. Test adhesion first.Place the wood flat on the printer bed. You will likely need to hold it down with clamps. Measure the highest point of the wood, not the average thickness of the boards. A warped edge could contact the printheads.Print and Check a SampleDetermine print size, print position and number of printing layers with different colors of ink. For printing on dark wood surfaces a white base layer is required to ensure that the print colors are clearly visible. For printing on light wood surfaces a light print is required in order to allow the natural wood grain to be visible. UV light cures the print ink during printing but curing the print ink alone does not guarantee sufficient adhesion to surfaces.We recommend creating a test print of the finer details first, such as small text and thin lines, to check the print’s ink adhesion. Test the print for gentile rubbing or scratching on the sample to see if it affects the print.
