UV WEB OFFSET PRESSES -- Finding the Cure

Because UV inks are sensitive to press-generated heat, temperature fluctuations make them break down, which affects printability. But, new press technology has taken care of that problem. The new generation of presses feature full cooling of ink trains and the web itself—so everything is kept at the optimum temperature. Maintaining the temperature in the proper zone has also helped eliminate ink breakdown and all the problems associated with it.
