Description
- UV DTF (Direct-to-Film):
- Refers specifically to printing on a transfer film that can later be applied to various objects.
- The process involves:
- Printing the design in reverse on a special adhesive film.
- Applying a lamination layer.
- Transferring the print to the desired surface.
- Great for irregular surfaces or objects that can’t fit into a printer.
- UV Direct-to-Object Printing:
- This is commonly just referred to as UV Printing or UV Direct Printing.
- It involves printing directly onto the surface of an object using UV inks.
- UV light cures the ink instantly, ensuring strong adhesion and durability.
- Suitable for flat or slightly curved objects like phone cases, awards, or signage.
Key Differences:
- UV DTF: Indirect printing method using a film for transfers. Versatile for odd shapes and surfaces.
- UV Direct Printing: Direct method for printing straight onto the object. Best for items that can fit into the machine’s print area.
Each has its advantages, depending on your production needs.
